USA Wrestling, FloWrestling and the National Wrestling Hall of Fame and Museum has published its February 2023 rankings for high school girls wrestlers for the 2022-23 season. This national ranking evaluates all girls enrolled in grades 8-12, and athletes from all 50 states are eligible for selection.

The annual state high school championships season is upon us, with the results of the events having a considerable impact on the rankings.

Girls state championships, both official and unofficial, have already been held in Alabama, Alaska, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Montana, Nevada, New York, North Carolina, West Virginia and Washington, D.C. A number of other states have already held the qualifying events for their state championships.

There were a number of changes in the rankings based upon athletes competing in different weight classes from where they were ranked.

Shelby Moore of Washington, who was No. 1 at 127 pounds, has dropped to 122 points, and takes over the No. 1 position there. Destiny Rodriguez of Oregon, who was No. 1 at 164 pounds, has dropped back to 152 pounds and taken over No. 1 at that weight class.

With the previous No. 1 at 100 pounds jumping two weight classes, Morgan Turner of Illinois is the new No. 1 at 100 pounds. With Moore dropping down, the new No. 1 at 127 pounds is Cadence Diduch of Illinois.
