Twelve wrestlers finished with 10-0 records. Uintah had five: Levi Mele, Cade Christensen, Czyz Woody, Wayne Duncan and Trevor Collett. North Sanpete had three: Kaden King, Tyler Christensen and Jake Swensen.

Other undefeated wrestlers were Pleasant Grove's Mickey Ottonelli, Payson's Kelly Kelsey, Delta's Joey Nielson and South Summit's Robert Dugdale.
