Michigan has four other seeded wrestlers at 120, with Jaxson Boucher at #15, Brody Ashley (Coloma), Landon Learn (Reeths Puffer), and D4 state champ Jaxton Kimling (Hudson) following at #16, #18 and #19. There are with 31 wrestlers and 13 2026 state placers from Michigan in the bracket. Davison’s Aden DiGiovanni is one of the toughest Freshmen in the state at any weight.

Outside the state of Michigan, this is one of the toughest weights in the tournament. There are a handful of nationally ranked kids, with Fuchs being ranked the highest at #3 following an unblemished performance at the Elite 8 Duals. The weight includes 14 Michigan wrestlers and six 2026 state placers.

He is one of four Michigan wrestlers at 285, along with D1 sixth-place finisher Sam Steinacker (Grand Ledge). This weight is anchored by two nationally ranked heavyweights at the top-two seeds.
