Bringing in two classes with 14 plus wrestlers under Head Coach Josh Roosa moving into his 3rd season leading the Monarchs. King’s now has a healthy roster of 33 with the talent level in the room rising every year. The Monarchs look to build on the individual success of Kade Kravits and Gus Petruske who both placed at the SE Regional (3rd,5th) and both earned NWCA Scholar All-American Honors. Kravits got his first look at the NCAA Championships and looks to build on that experience. As a team the Monarchs look to be much improved with a solid foundation of experienced wrestlers and a nice crop of talented newcomers at key weights.
