    DORTMUND, Germany -- The U.S. men's freestyle Olympians went four-for-four on medals during day one of competition at the Grand Prix of Germany on Saturday.

    Three-time World champion and Olympic champion Jordan Burroughs (Lincoln, Neb./Sunkist Kids/Nebraska RTC) ran through the 74 kg/163 lbs. field to add another gold medal to his ever-growing collection.

    After opening with 10-0 technical falls over Markus Knobel of Germany and Andrzej Sokalski of Poland, Burroughs downed 2014 World bronze medalist and NCAA All-American Bekzod Abdurakhmonov of Uzbekistan, 9-3, to advance to the gold medal match.
