2026 KWCA Kansas Shrine Duals Rosters
The Kansas Wrestling Coaches Association (KWCA) and the Shrine Bowl of Kansas have announced the high school senior wrestlers who have accepted their invitation to wrestle in the 3rd annual KWCA Kansas Shrine Duals. The KWCA Kansas Shrine Duals will be held on Saturday, March 28th, 2026, at Fugate Gymnasium on the campus of Newman University in Wichita, Kansas. Gates open at 1:00 pm and the opening ceremony will begin at 2:00 pm. Tickets, event information, and sponsorship opportunities are available at www.KansasShrineDuals.com.
The KWCA selections for the 2026 rosters include 22 state champions from this year’s KSHSAA State Championships, along with an additional 11 state finalists and 54 overall 2026 state medalists. The coaches selected by the KWCA for this year’s event are Billy Broeckelman (Norton HS) and Paul Lappin (Garden City HS) for the West team and Adam Ludwin (Tonganoxie HS) and Brett Delich (Tonganoxie HS) for the East team. Wrestler selections are finalized by the KWCA after a review of applications submitted by wrestlers and are contingent upon that wrestler’s acceptance of the invitation. The East/West dividing line used to assign wrestlers to the East or West team is marked by the territories of the five Kansas Shrine Centers, however, some exceptions are made to ensure fulfillment of all weight classes. The rosters are subject to change and the final official match pairings will be determined and released the week of the event.
