Lawrence Free State’s Madyson Gray completed her career 95-0 and is No. 1 all-time in Kansas in winning percentage.

By CONOR NICHOLL

Sports In Kansas is pleased to deliver the updated all-time girls’ wrestling records and winning percentages in Kansas. SIK first published the list before the 2022 state tournament. It is now updated with state results, along with multiple freshmen.

Compiling and research done by Conor Nicholl, Sports In Kansas, along with researcher David Heidrick. Information confirmed by many coaches throughout Kansas. All records via Track Wrestling, coaches, and/or other sources. Girls’ wrestling completed its third KSHSAA sanctioned season this winter. Before then, the sport held an unofficial state championship through McPherson High School for a couple of years. Girls’ wrestling in Kansas continues to grow at an extremely high rate.

SIK has five lists: Top-30 all-time Wins, Top-20 all-time Winning Percentage; Top-20 returning wrestlers (non-seniors), Top-20 returning wrestlers Winning Percentage; Top-10 Freshmen after ’21-22 season.

**This is a very large project that includes more than 240 wrestlers. If you see a correction, please email/DM Conor Nicholl at cnicholl1@gmail.com or @cnichollHays.
