INDIANAPOLIS — Five South Dakota State University wrestlers remain in the NCAA Coaches' Panel rankings heading into next weekend's Big 12 Wrestling Championship.
Leading the way for the Jackrabbits is senior 149-pounder Henry Pohlmeyer, who is ninth in the rankings released Thursday by NCAA officials. A two-time NCAA qualifier from Johnston, Iowa, Pohlmeyer has compiled an 19-4 overall record and also ranks 25th in ratings percentage index (RPI) at his weight class. Pohlmeyer was an NCAA qualifier at 141 pounds as a sophomore and at 149 pounds last season.
Other Jackrabbits in the rankings include:
The Big 12 Wrestling Championship is set for March 7-8 at BOK Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The conference was allocated 54 automatic qualifiers — an increase of one from a year ago — for the 2020 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships, which will take place March 19-21 in Minneapolis. The Big 12, which trailed only the Big Ten's 79 allocations, was awarded at least five spots in nine of 10 weight classes, with four spots at 165 pounds being the lone exception. See the table below for breakdowns by conferences and weight classes.
The remaining 47 at-large qualifiers to fill out the 330-wrestler field — 33 in each of the 10 weight classes — will be announced on March 10, while brackets and seeding for the 2020 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships will be revealed March 11.
