Wrestling: Hunterdon-Warren-Sussex projections

We are still 11 days away from the annual Hunterdon-Warren-Sussex Tournament, but here's an early look at the potential top eight seeds (in projected order). The seeding committee, including Open Mike, will convene on Tuesday morning at Warren Hills Regional High School.

Note: Records only include information posted on the NWCA Scorebook. Also, Tom Murphy of Pope John won't be eligible for the tournament as he serves the 30-day wait due to the transfer rule, but is listed below at 145:
