The 2025 Greco-Roman World Team

The 2025 Senior Men’s Greco-Roman World Team has been set. The team will feature some familiar faces like stalwarts Ellis Coleman, Alejandro Sanchez, Kamal Bey, and Cohlton Schultz. At the same time, there is plenty of new blood - in the form of hungry, young athletes with a track record of success. Jayden Raney will handle the lightest weight class and was a 2024U17 world champion. The 82 kg slot will be held down by Beka Melelashvili who was a U23 world silver medalist last year.
