2024-25 Scholastic States Schedule Announced!

UNION, NJ, October 31 — It's scary to think that the 2024-25 scholastic (folkstyle) season is about to get underway!  Youth leagues will soon begin competition, and middle and high school competition starts in five weeks.  Which means, before you know it, the NJ State Championship Series will be upon us.

USAW-NJ is again hosting regional qualifiers for both girls and boys, in order to offer more competition opportunities for girls and hopefully attract more participation.  Complete details are in the rules flyer below.

Registration for all regional qualifiers will open soon on FloArena.  Please check frequently -- once registration opens, links will be added below and also on the printable flyer.  

Good luck to all NJ wrestlers this season!  We hope to see you soon at one of our qualifying tournaments.


2024-25 Annual Meeting / Scholastic Chair Nominations

USA Wrestling - New Jersey held its annual General Membership meeting, and its first State Governing Body meeting for the 2024-25 season, on September 30 in Union, NJ.  Candidates were elected for most positions.

USAW-NJ is seeking nominations from the general membership for the position of Scholastic Council Chair.   The  State Governing Body will vote on this position at its next upcoming meeting, which will be held November 18th in Union.   Nominations must be emailed by midnight Friday October 25th.   The nomination form is on our Join the SGB page.   The form must be emailed to BOTH the Chair of the Nomination Committee and the Chair of the Membership Committee.   Nominators and nominees must be members of USA Wrestling for the 2024-25 Season.   This means each must have completed a background check, USA Wrestling’s Safe Sport Certification course, and have paid for their 2024-25 membership prior to the next meeting.

This position is a very important position for USA Wrestling NJ.   It spans a large age range of both boys and girls.   It deals with the current largest numbers of wrestlers, at this time, for both males and females competing in the Scholastic Style.  In recent years there have been 9 qualifying tournaments dispersed throughout the state that culminate in a State Championship at Trenton.   Both the boys and the girls have 6 age divisions for the NJ Scholastic State series.  There also are opportunities for scholastic duals and individual national tournament competitions pending the leadership and planning of the scholastic council.

We encourage anyone interested to submit a nomination as soon as possible.

Team NJ's 16U Women Place an Historic 2nd in Nation


The 2024 Marine Corps USA Wrestling Nationals got off to a roaring start for Team NJ, where our 16U Women's team placed 2nd in the nation, behind winner Pennsylvania and just ahead of 3rd-place California.  The team score was powered by six All-Americans including two champions: Charlie Wylie and Taina McGowan.  Additional finalists Victoria Carbonaro and Ella Poalillo brought home silver, while Olivia Georges took fourth and Marie Sharp captured fifth.

Most notable about the result is that the Pennsylvania and California teams each entered more than double the number of 16U Women's wrestlers as New Jersey, yet New Jersey still powered its way into the top three.  

Fargo results are "a developing story."  A longer article will follow at the end of the tournament
