Appalachian State University wrestling continues to move up the various national polls, this week moving up three spots to No. 17 in the *InterMat* duals rankings on Tuesday. The Mountaineers remained at No. 21 in the *USA Today*/NWCA Division I Wrestling Coaches Poll.
The Mountaineers (7-1, 3-0 Southern Conference) are coming off two big wins against SoCon foes Campbell and SIUE to improve to their best start since 2002-03. This week marks the 10th week that Appalachian has been ranked in the *USA Today*/NWCA poll Top 25 – all coming in the last two seasons.
With 83 total votes, App State remains the lone member of the SoCon in the Top 25 for the third-straight week (Chattanooga is third in the “others receiving votes” category) and is one of only three schools to have at least six wins and no more than one loss, joining Nebraska and Rutgers.
