Japan sends the trial runner up to asians, you will see they have a totally different team between worlds and asians. They do the same for juniors also. I think it's a good way to let more guys get international experience. Russia also sends their trials runner up to euros. USA is wrestling pan ams which is a terrible continent for wrestling.

So I guess I missed this or forgot but whatever happened to Chittum? Did he ever end up at Chattanooga? -
I feel like since our u17 guys couldn't compete at Asians they are a little disadvantaged compared to everyone else. I reckon that's the big differentiator this year as this is their first international competition of the year. In saying that though we sent 5 guys to the finals and have potential to win 7 medals with 3 gold. It's also good because we sent our 45 and 48kg to the finals and that's where we are really lacking in talent and depth. At the end of the day all that matters is we develop guys for the senior team. The US historically has not been always dominant in junior level but always produces top talent when it comes to seniors.

Why did the ice agent have to take Xanax? Because of Hispanic attacks. I'll be here all weekend.

Actually I forgot the 92 guy. He should win. Ukraines 80kg must be a national war hero. He beat Iran and Russia for gold.

You’re condoning one. While denigrating another. May as well say it. It’s what you mean. Or. You can acknowledge just a few short months ago the other team was doing similar shyte - Today

Also we have 0 chance in any of the finals. 0 golds this year for cadets fs
-
Damn lol I see even the 80kg kid lost to Ukraine. Thought he would get gold. As windows said, its 3 - 1, but yes. We may underperform considering how well funded the federation is lately and more importantly the amount of wrestlers we have. USA is lucky all their more talented guys wrestle freestyle/folkstyle, our talent is split between greco and fs. We would do better if Sourian, Saravi, Esmaili etc had all done freestyle also. Japan probably overperforms the most in terms of medals compared to total number of wrestlers.

Loathsome? Or wholesome? In Cael we trust. -

i appreciate that sentiment but trust me when I say "fanboying" i'm referring ironically to the loathsome idea that everyone is probably gonna have to have one horse in that particular race. -

You are back to attributing to me things I did not say. Stop keeping on. -
I think the count is 3 to 1 as Alizadeh at 92 did beat US wrestler. There are two more matches I think tomorrow. So it’s a bit early to draw conclusions. If Iran win the team competition at freestyle then they will have won both Greco and Freestyle and against robust competition. Best judge the outcome tomorrow I would have thought.
-
I think he was from VA but MD might have been a possibility too. Good call on Morgan St.
-
Actually, what I said was entirely accurate. Spencer wrestled, was hurt and out for the season - THEN Nicky Skeletor decided to wrestle. Very easy to prove...

You fanboying Penn state will certainly detract from it. Please reconsider

At the Cadets, three of our guys faced Americans-and all three lost. Something’s seriously off. Considering how much money our federation spends (honestly, is there any wrestling federation in the world that spends more than Iran? I don’t know about the others, but I seriously doubt it), these results just aren’t acceptable. The federation always hides behind team results. But who even cares about team scores? Dabir sees those results as political PR for himself.

Or 97 for that matter.

And Spencer's senior year.

The first medals were awarded in men’s freestyle at the U17 World Championships on Saturday and the American contingent already has three with more on the horizon. Saturday gold medal matches featured a pair of American wrestlers - Ariah Mills at 48 kg and Arseni Kikiniou at 65 kg. The two split as Mills dominated for the gold, while Kikiniou was painfully close but will have to settle for silver. Mills squared off with Iranian Sina Boustani Kalateh Abbasabad, who took an early lead; however, it went downhill fast for the Iranian. Mills was placed on the shot clock in the opening period and ended up surrendering a point to Boustani Kalateh Abbasabad. Shortly after the point, Mills used a knee pick to get his opponent off balance and then locked up a takedown. He’d take a 2-1 lead into the second period. Mills would add to his lead early in the final period by getting a second takedown, this time after a snapdown, followed by spinning for two. Off the next restart, Boustani Kalateh Abbasabad made a poor shot and Mills made him pay with a lightning-quick counter for two more and a 6-1 lead. One more was all Mills needed to seal the win. Another bit of stout defense allowed Mills to get a third takedown. This time, he was able to isolate an arm and turned Boustani Kalateh Abbasabad twice with a trapped-arm gut wrench for the 12-1 win. With Mills’ win, it will ensure that the men’s freestyle team has at least one gold medalist from this event - something they’ve had every year since this tournament was reintroduced in 2011. Kikiniou lost a tactical affair in the 65 kg finals to Azerbaijan’s Huseyn Ismayilov, 1-1. Both points awarded came via slot clock violations - one by each wrestler. Despite the loss, Kikiniou will receive a silver medal and become the first American at the U17 level to earn medals in both disciplines. Earlier in the week, he claimed a bronze medal in Greco-Roman. The third American to receive a medal on Saturday was Grey Burnett at 55 kg. Early in his contest with Iran’s Mohammedreza Barari, Burnett stuffed a shot attempt and then scored a takedown from the front headlock position. Seconds later, he locked up a high gut and turned the Iranian for two points and a 4-0 lead. That sequence represented the only scoring of the bout and Burnett walked away with a bronze medal. The last five members of the men’s freestyle team began their tournaments on Saturday, as well. They were a powerful bunch that pushed three wrestlers into the finals and one other will be in Sunday’s repechage. Keegan Bassett (45 kg), Sammy Sanchez (51 kg), and Jayden James (71 kg) all will wrestle for gold medals tomorrow. Bassett fought through a path that included some traditional powers in India, Kazakhstan, and Russia. He’ll have to get by Iran’s Parsa Tahmasbi for the gold. Sanchez is looking to become just the fifth two-time U17 champion in men’s freestyle for Team USA since the tournament was revived in 2011. A group that includes Yianni Diakomihalis, Gable Steveson, Kurt McHenry, and Dom Munaretto is pretty solid company. Standing between Sanchez and that group is Uzbekistan’s Ulugbek Rashidov. Like Sanchez, Rashidov is a returning U17 gold medalist. In 2024, Sanchez won the 45 kg gold medal, while Rashidov won at 48 kg. One of the more entertaining bouts of the day came in the 71 kg semifinals as Jayden James pinned Armenia’s Yeghishe Mosesyan for a berth in the finals. The Armenian had a chest wrap from a front headlock position and tried to roll through with it - a scramble ensued and James ended up on top for the fall. He’ll face Iran’s Arsham Mostafa in tomorrow’s gold medal match. Still with medal hopes alive is Tanner Hodgins at 92 kg. Hodgins lost his first bout of the tournament to Iran’s Amirali Alizadeh. Alizadeh ended up in the finals and pulled Hodgins back into repechage. He’ll need to win two bouts tomorrow morning just to wrestle for a bronze medal. Hodgins journey through the repechage bracket starts with a bout versus Mongolia’s Saruul Erdenetsogt.

There are very different degrees to "ordering around." Biden generally let people do their jobs, like most presidents have. In fact, the wingers accuse Bidens cabinet of doing Bidens job for him. A little more winger hypocrisy there btw. -
