Down Low (106-132): Senior Ryan Rosenthal is coming off a big 2019 in which he racked up 39 wins, and was a win away from a medal in Atlantic City. He, along with Mark Fedeli, will provide senior leadership in the lowerweights for the Mariners. Sophomore Jake Rosenthal showed a lot of potential last season, going 11-3 in limited action for North. Another sophomore to keep an eye on is Cole Anderson, who wrestled up at 120-126 last year, but will be at 106 this season where he could have a very big year. Also returning is junior Alex Danelson, who picked up 9 wins in 14 matches a season ago.
In The Middle (138-160): The middleweights are will be a senior-heavy group, with returning State Medal Winner Nick Boggiano leading the charge. Boggiano, who has made the trip to AC three times, enters the season with 108 career wins, and is 21 away from breaking the school record. Matt Spalletta is coming off a 24 win campaign, in which he took 3rd in the Districts. He has the ability to put up 30+ this year, and will be in the mix for a trip to the boardwalk come later February. O'Neill Forbes and Sergio Borda are two more experienced seniors back in the lineup for North, who are also bolstered by the addition of key newcomer Justin Burkert, another senior, who previously wrestled at Jackson Memorial.
Up Top (170-Hwt): 3-time District Medalist, Mike Nakano is back and looking for one more big year in his last go around. John O'Donnell had a great sophomore season wrestling at 220/Hwt, picking up 29 victories. Those two provide a solid core to break in some new starters around, including seniors Vinny Palmieri, Ryan Winn, and Diego Rosas, as well as promising freshman Vincent O'Donnell.
