A year ago a loaded Watertown squad wrestled their way to a second place finish in the Class A state tournament. With some heavy graduation losses the Arrows got off to a slower start than normal this season. 

The younger wrestlers filling in for those that graduated are starting to find their groove and despite not much wrestling action this past week the Arrows made the jump from No. 9 in the Class A rankings, all the way to No. 6. 

Sturgis continues to lead in the Class A rankings garnering 199 points in this week's poll, ahead of Brandon Valley (145) and Pierre (138). Rapid City Stevens (137), Tea Area (100) and Watertown (97) rounded out the top-six teams. 

Some big changes in the Dynamite Dozen this week as Brandon Valley senior Navarro Schunke (285) jumps to No. 1 on that list. Lynx teammate Trevon Oehme (120) jumped into the Dynamite Dozen this week at No. 3.
