Dieringer is set to wrestle on Saturday, and Marsden will compete on Sunday. Competition on both days is set to begin at 1 a.m. CT. Their draws will be announced later this week.
The pair earned spots on the Junior World Team in front of a home crowd at Gallagher-Iba Arena at the World Team Trials back in June.
After a successful freshman season that saw him place third at 157 pounds at the NCAA Championships, Dieringer breezed through his bracket to take home the 74 kilogram title, including two convincing wins over Dylan Palacio in a best-of-three championship series.
Marsden, who took a redshirt for the most recent NCAA season, showed off with a five-point throw in his opening match and finished the tournament with two bonus-point wins over Adam Coon in the 120 kg finals.
Last year, the two competed at the Junior World Championships in Pattaya, Thailand, where Dieringer split a pair of bouts, while Marsden loss his only match of the tournament.
