2013/2014 Rewind
Last year Bloomfield edged out Cobre for the Class 3A title winning with 203.0 points. Bloomfield returns a good amount of talent with Corin Nelson, Levi Whutley, and Jacob Spencer all returning. While Bloomfield is the preseason number 1 there are many teams in Class 4A that can give them a run.


2014/2015 Best of the Best
Class 4A loses one of the best ever in Kory Wyndham of St. Michael's High, but returns some high quality talent for this season. Pound for pound Rico Montoya out of Robertson went 37-0 last year at 132 pounds. JD Robinson out of Bloomfield went 38-6 at
138, and watch for Kenneth Yara out of Robertson who went 34-4 at 220 as just a junior.

How Does New Mexico Wrestling Compare with other states in terms of talent?

MIF Eddie Vasquez and RHP Wyatt Kelly have committed to NMJC. Great job boys!!!!

Congrats to Jesse Becton (La Cueva) on his commitment to NMJC...Coach Simpson is cleaning house in NM.

Korwin Mueller (LHP/OF) has committed to Yakima Valley CC in Washington state. Congrats

who wins?

Who Are The Top 5 Wrestlers Of All-Time (At the NM Prep Level). There has to be some living legends

Here are my picks for the 1/4 Final round in Boys 5A:

STHS over Academy (shocking I know, gotta be a homer sometimes)

Farmington over SPX

Chapa over Capital

Centennial over Roswell (toughest game to pick, I like both coaches and teams)

After talking to some college guys and seeing the balls in play at UNM this weekend...NM HS coaches should look into using those balls if the wood bats are staying around.

What you got?

Well they're cleaning the mats. What do wrestling teams around the state look like this year?
