WEST POINT, N.Y. – Army West Point's ranked wrestlers improved upon their positions in the top 20 according to InterMat, FloWrestling and The Open Mat on Tuesday, despite a dormant week.

Everett moved up one spot to 16th in the InterMat rankings, while holding steady at the No. 12 position for FloWrestling and The Open Mat. The Tioga, Pa., native has compiled a 9-3 overall record, while going 2-1 in duals to begin his senior campaign. He has also recorded three bonus point victories with two pins and a technical fall.
Parsons jumped three spots according to The Open Mat to eighth, becoming the first Cadet under head coach Kevin Ward to crack the top 10. The Clinton, N.J., native remained 11th in the InterMat poll and 10th in the FloWrestling rankings. He has accumulated 11 victories in 12 matches (2-1 in duals) with six bonus point wins (three technical falls and three major decisions).
Caywood continues to be ranked 16th by The Open Mat, while dropping one spot to 20th for InterMat and FloWrestling. The Perrysburg, Ohio native sports an 8-4 record with six bonus point victories, compiling one pin, three technical falls and two major decisions.
