Tucson Ironwood Ridge won last year’s Division II state wrestling championship quite handily.

But the school wrestled at the Division I level in 2013-14, opening the door for several schools to step in and take over in Division II on Feb. 21 and 22 at Tim’s Toyota Center in Prescott Valley.

Which school will be the one?

It could be Yuma Cibola, which moved down from Division I to Division II. Or perhaps fellow Yuma school Gila Ridge, which finished second to Ironwood Ridge in Division II a year ago.

Other possible breakthroughs are Vail Cienega, Marana Mountain View, Queen Creek, Tempe Marcos de Niza, Prescott or Phoenix Barry Goldwater.

Four wrestlers will return to defend their state titles.

Gila Ridge’s Nathan Mendivil is back at 106 pounds, although he didn’t win in the D-II, Section I tournament.

That honor went to Brandon Courtney of Goodyear Desert Edge, who scored a 5-3 win in overtime.

Also back is Jacob Swift of Glendale Deer Valley. He moved up from 126 pounds to 138, and won in the Section IV tournament.

Troy Vandall of Goldwater won at 132 pounds a year ago and now is at 145 after his win in Section IV.

Kyle Jividen of Tucson Sahuaro will be back at 285, the top level. He won in Section II.

Kingman will be looking for its first individual champion since 1983 (Victor Martez). The man most likely to accomplish the feat would be C.J. Gore, who won at 160 pounds in Section IV.
