CONGRATULATIONS CLASS OF 2026! 🎓☘️

First Team All-Metro

Royce Wetlzer (113 lbs) 2026 All-Metro Wrestler of the Year! This silent assassin doesn’t need a pep talk. He needs silence, a quick thumbs up, and 20 minutes to lock in. Once that whistle blows? It’s pure offensive dominance. Back-to-back state titles. Two-time National All-American 🏆

Nate Foldes (144 lbs) The third Foldes brother to represent Benedictine, Nate dominated his way to a VISAA state title this season. Finishing with a 20-4 record, he punctuated his junior year by rolling through the state tournament with a pin, a tech fall, and a major decision before securing the championship with a 10-4 victory.

Elliott Crews (150 lbs) A key force in the Cadets’ state championship run, Crews posted an impressive 31-9 record and advanced to the round of 12 at National Preps. He showcased his clinical efficiency at the state meet, pinning his first three opponents in a combined 3 minutes and 9 seconds before winning the title with a gritty 9-5 decision.

Jameson Burns (165 lbs) A two-time state champion and National Preps round of 12 finisher, Burns went 10-3 this season. He lived up to his “All-Metro first-teamer” status at the VISAA meet by pinning his first three opponents in lightning-fast times—27 seconds, 25 seconds, and 1:58—before finishing as the state runner-up.

Sean Boyd (Heavyweight) A dual-sport standout, Boyd earned All-American status by finishing seventh at National Preps. The No. 2 seed at the state meet, he fought through a tough bracket to set up a rivalry rematch in the finals, where he secured a tight 4-2 decision to capture the heavyweight state championship.

The following Benedictine wrestlers were recognized as honorable mentions across their respective weight classes:
106: C**t Brewer
126: Henry Jones
132: Nicholas Demyanovich
