If all you are going to do is look at what wrestlers did after their High School careers, then you are leaving out a great deal of people who dominated their weight class during their HS era.
One name you need to include then is Jim Whitmer.

Wrestled for Hall of Fame coach Steve Gabriel at App State and was a two-time NAIA All-American at 137 pounds … Placed sixth nationally at 137 pounds in 1966 and fourth nationally at 137 pounds in 1967 … The Goldsboro, N.C., native had an unbeaten record during the 1966 team's run to a 9-0 record that included wins against NC State, North Carolina and Georgia Tech ...
