Red & White Dual will now be on a Tuesday. For those who do not know what this event is, it is an intrasquad jamboree (Nixa vs. Nixa). This is a great opportunity for us to see some wrestle-offs and allow the wrestlers to compete in front of a crowd.
It is important to note that JV Tournaments or JV Match-Up Nights in girls' wrestling do not exist yet. So we will send our "JV' / Non Starters" to varsity-level competitions. We have done this for several years, and our girls always perform well!
Francis Howell and North Point Dual: We will start the season off with one of the best teams in the state, Francis Howell. These varsity duals will be at Francis Howell in St. Charles, Missouri. The next day, we will wrestle our JV and some of our starters in the Festus Scramble, which is essentially a tournament.
December 6th, was initially scheduled as a HOME dual. We are struggling to find an opponent for that night. I have a few ideas out there, but at this moment, nothing is confirmed. So, for now, I have removed it from the schedule with the hope of adding it back on. Stay tuned
The next run of competitions are the same as last year:
- CBC Dual and Seckman Dual (St. Louis)
- Lafayette 'Fred Ross' Invite (St. Louis)
- Ozark Dual
NEW this year: We have added a HOME dual! Nixa will be hosting the returning Class 1 State Champs Kearney High School. Following this dual, our boys' team will wrestle Helias Catholic High School and Smithville High School. This night will also serve as our Senior Night.

- Republic Invite
- Clinton Tournament
- Queen of the North (Kansas City)
- COC Tournament (New teams/format @Joplin)
