And Figueroa of Arizona State is back wrestling. So that will affect the rankings as wellI assume you mean Smith won.
#4 Ventresca lost to #20 Moore, #5 Flynn lost to #7 Smith, #8 Volk is out for the year.
So assume Smith leap frogs Poulin and takes over #4 (worst case #5) and Ventresca and Flynn drop below Lilledahl, then you are looking at three spots to #9 this week, with a shot at #4 (or #5) next week.
If you take an average of the seven top ranking services Luke is already ranked at number nineI assume you mean Smith won.

I am using Intermat for this discussion and they still have Figueroa #3. That should not impact Lilledahl. Unless Figueroa were to lose.And Figueroa of Arizona State is back wrestling. So that will affect the rankings as well
So far for the week 1/6 through 11/12 there are four different things that will potentially affect Luke's ranking for the upcoming week. Rankings were taken from the summary of The Master Rankings: 1) #7 Caleb Smith, Neb Dec #3 Cooper Flynn, Min. 2-0. 2) #20 Spencer Moore, UNC, Dec #4 Eddie Ventresca VT, 4-1 OT. 3) #8 Jore Volk, WYO supposedly out for the season with an injury. 4) Figueroa is back wrestling for Arizona State. Luke should definitely move up but I don't know how many placesI am using Intermat for this discussion and they still have Figueroa #3. That should not impact Lilledahl. Unless Figueroa were to lose.
Roll the dice at 125 like last year. Lol. Good Luck Lightning Luke. You can do it!Sadly Caleb Smith only moved up one spot to #6 this week in Intermat's rankings. So the dream of ten top 5 Intermat ranked wrestlers may be delayed a bit.
While Vince Robinson jumped from #11 to #3 with his win over Troy Spratley yesterday, Spratley only dropped from #2 to #4 with the lose. In other strange decisions, #4 Eddie Ventresca lost to #20 Spencer Moore, but only dropped one spot to #5, while Moore only moved up five spots to #15.
So close.
We have to settle for all ten wrestlers ranked in the top 7 as Lilledahl took over the six spot and Davis dropped to the seven spot on Intermat.
On the plus side the odds of 10 AAs improved this week to creep above 10% for the first time this year (10.3% using Intermat or 11.3% using Flo).
To get to top 5 Lilledahl will need some help as he does not wrestle anyone currently ranked ahead during the regular season. Davis can get there Jan 31 against Ayala.
