FHSU (7-6, 3-2 Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association) is coming off a 30-11 win over MIAA opponent Central Missouri, closing out the conference portion of its schedule. Just one regular season dual remains as well, taking place Wednesday (Feb. 11) at Adams State.
Josh Rodriguez (174), Jon Inman (184) and Trey Page (285) remained in the rankings, where they’ve been all season, while Noah Killip (141) made his debut at No. 8 after posting a 23-3 record so far this season. Rodriguez (15-4) moved up one spot to seventh, while Inman (29-5) dropped to eighth. At heavyweight, Page stayed put at No. 5 with a 37-2 record on the year.
After the Adams State dual, FHSU will turn its attention to postseason action with the MIAA Championships in Warrensburg, Mo., on Sunday.
