Wyoming finally updated their roster, so I’m heading out to where the deer and the antelope play. Fun fact: Bucks County has a larger population than the entire state of Wyoming.

125 – Foster (Jr) <Post Falls, ID>

Drake Foster went 19-12 last season and didn’t qualify for the tournament. His best win was against NCAA qualifier, Sergio Mendez (CSUB).

133 – Bridges (So) <Altus, OK>

Montorie Bridges went 35-7 on the season and finished to seed, placing 8th in the tournament.

141 – Turner (So) <Discovery Canyon, CO>

Sam Turner went 25-17 on the season and 0-2 at the tournament @149. He’s dropping back down to take over for 3-time AA Bryce Meredith (2nd in 2018, 4th in 2017, 2nd in 2016).

149 – Hornickle (Sr) <Burlington, WI>

Ben Hornickle finally gets his chance at being the full time starter. He went 22-7 last season, with his best win coming against Turner.

157 – Krueger (Jr) <Oconto Falls, WI>

Dewey Krueger went 15-7 (2-2 in duals) last season. He takes over for 2-time qualifier Archie Colgan (1-2 in 2018, R12 in 2017).

165 – Ashworth (Sr) <Spanish Fork, UT>

Two-time qualifier Branson Ashworth returns for his final season at Wyoming. He went 36-6 on the season and 2-2 at the tournament from the 14 seed. He got sent to the consolation bracket the last two years by Vincenzo Joseph.

174 – Lombardo (Sr) <Bethlehem Catholic, PA> or Randles (Fr) <Coeur d’Alene, ID>

Anthony Lombardo transferred in from Binghamton where he went 22-10 last season and didn’t qualify for the tournament. Casey Randles went 28-5 in his redshirt season (no wins against NCAA qualifiers). The new starter will be taking over for Kyle Pope went 24-12 and didn’t qualify for the tournament last season.

184 – Looney (Fr) <Laramie, WY> or Moody (Fr) <Bingham, UT>

Careless Looney (what a name) went 17-5 in his redshirt season (no wins against NCAA qualifiers). Incoming freshman, Cole Moody is a 3-time Utah state champion. The new starter will be taking over for Chaz Polson went 28-13 overall and 1-2 in the tournament last season.

197 – Davidson (Fr) <Goddard, KA>

Cale Davidson went 18-2 in his redshirt season (no wins against NCAA qualifiers). He’s taking over for Cody Vigoren (7-12) and Luke Paine (4-3) who ended the year as the starter.

Heavy – Andrews (So) <Grapevine, TX> or Mullins (So) <Orting, WA>

Brian Andrews transferred in from Northeastern Oklahoma where he went 13-1. His biggest win was against Ethan Anderson of OSU. Hunter Mullins went 7-14 last year for Wyoming. They will be replacing Sam Eagen who went 16-14 last year and didn’t qualify for the tournament. It looks like he forgoed his last year of eligibility.


Wyoming has a lot of turnover from last year losing 6 starters. They return 1 AA (Bridges) and 2 other qualifiers and lose 1 AA (Meredith) and 2 other qualifiers. The Cowboys are unlikely to replicate their 17th place/27.5 point performance from last year. Nothing against Cole Moody but I will be cheering for Careless Looney. It’s not his fault that his parents are odd.

I had to look him up because, yeah, it really begs the question of what his parents were thinking. Unfortunately for our sake, it's not quite right. His first name is Carless, not Careless. Still a pretty weird name though.

Oops, I added an extra 'e'. I like Careless better than Carless. I couldn't handle being without a car.

Edit: Now I see where I got the misspelling. I use a combination mostly of wrestlestat and the college websites to put these together. Wrestlestat also has the "Careless" version.

I looked him up on FB, figuring he'd be easy to spot with such a unique name, and sure enough he was. True to his name, I saw no car.
