Happy Holidays!
With the Beast of the East completed over the weekend, we head into the holidays with several major national high school wrestling events complete, offering us a road map for where the 2025-26 season may go. Of course, there is still a ton of great action ahead of us, including some special holiday events. With that said, here is our latest Top 40 Team rankings, as you continue your holiday celebrations and prepare for a bright New Year! Enjoy
1-Faith Christian Academy, PA
Previous No. 1
Idle
2-Buchanan, CA
Previous No. 3
Won their own Zinkin Classic Tournament over Clovis and Clovis North.
3-Blair Academy, NJ
Previous No. 4
Won the team title at the Beast of the East over Lake Highland Prep by three points.
4-Lake Highland Prep, FL
Previous No. 2
Second at the Beast of the East.
5-Delbarton, NJ
Previous No. 5
Was 4-0 at the Fab 50 Duals with wins over Massillon Perry, 41-23, and Greens Farms Academy, 51-6. They did not wrestle Wyoming Seminary, which left the event without a champion as both were 4-0. The two squads have a dual meet scheduled at Seminary on February 6th, so it seems they passed on this meeting in favor of the upcoming one.
6-Malvern Prep, PA
Previous No. 7
Finished third at the Beast of the East.  
7-St. John Bosco, CA
Previous No. 6
Captured the crown at the Reno Tournament of Champions, finishing ahead of Poway, Gilroy, and Allen.
