Can King’s Court Win This Season’s Women’s College Crown?

Jason Moorman made off-season moves that put his team in contention for the 2024 National Collegiate Women’s Wrestling Championships. Will it be enough?

King coach Jason Moorman’s off-season recruiting haul sent a message: Overlook King at your own peril. 

The Tornado have weathered the storm against the best NCAA women’s programs in the country — and won. 

Moorman led his team to four straight WCWA (all divisions) titles from 2014 through 2017 and has 12 top-five finishes at the national collegiate championships over the past 13 seasons. 

They are also the reigning two-time NWCA National Duals champions with finals wins over the eventual NCWWC champions, McKendree and North Central. Sarah Hildebrandt, Forrest Molinari, Alli Ragan, and Haley Augello are just a few of the world-caliber wrestlers the program has produced.

King’s Recruiting Haul

King has a formidable line-up with plenty of top-end power. King returns three wrestlers in FloWrestling’s pound-for-pound college rankings: Samara Chavez (#4), Sage Mortimer (#6), and Cheyenne Bowman (#21).

Moorman went on a recruiting spree to add even more firepower. He recently landed junior college stars Victoria Baez-Dillone (Umpqua), Aine Drury (Cerritos), and Alexa Garcia (Southwestern Oregon) along with a promising crop of incoming freshmen. … rest of story at … Flowrestling.org/Can-kings-court-win-this-seasons-womens-college-crown
