Arizona Wrestling 2026-27 Team Rankings
Arizona Wrestling • Updated October 28, 2026

Team Rankings

The top six teams in all four boys and both girls AIA divisions, recalculated from the latest individual rankings after Super 32 and RMN Freakshow.

How these are calculated: Each ranked wrestler earns power points: #1 = 16, #2 = 12, #3 = 9, #4 = 7, #5 = 5 and #6 = 3. Equal totals are separated by most #1s, then most ranked wrestlers, then alphabetical school name. Ranked counts athletes; #1s counts individual division leaders. These are independent roster-strength rankings, not official AIA rankings, dual-meet predictions or state-tournament score projections. Projected individual weights remain provisional; power counts the ranked athletes, including schoolmates at the same projected weight. Valiant athletes are excluded from these AIA tables. Movement compares with the August 25 team page.

Update notes and sources

October 28: Rafael Rodriguez’s reported transfer to Florence and move to D3 175 are included. Boys D1: Williams Field enters at #6 (32 points), replacing Queen Creek. Boys D3: Safford moves to #4 ahead of Crismon at #5 on the disclosed #1-count tiebreak (both 47 points); Cactus Shadows enters at #6 (31), replacing Snowflake (30). Florence has 7 power points from Rafael’s provisional #4.

All six divisions were recalculated from the updated individual tables using the same point scale as the original team page. School changes and individual rank changes affect power; a weight change alone does not add team points. National tournament results inform the individual rankings rather than being added again as team bonuses.

Submitted D3 113 correction: Gunner Merkley moves to #4 and Edge Bryant to #5 based on a forwarded state head-to-head report pending independent result confirmation. Combs gains two power points (3 to 5); Snowflake dropped two (34 to 32) and remained sixth in the October 27 snapshot; after the October 28 175-lb update it has 30 points and is seventh.

Notable changes: Desert Ridge moves into the boys Division 1 top four; Somerton leads boys Division 3 and girls Division 2. Cienega and Canyon View enter the girls Division 1 top six. These are calculated roster-strength positions, not national tournament team finishes.

Inputs: Arizona Wrestling boys and girls individual ranking files, updated October 27, 2026. Results reviewed: Super 32 official results and Freakshow official results. Prior comparison: August 25 team rankings.
