Had Pindrickson gotten bronze like he should have, we would have won the title.

even removing the barely old enough to vote ages of Jax n PJ, this was a relatively young squad, which is great for USAW.

3 golds is a tremendous accomplishment. You want to think more medals but you have to be realistic. It’s like a balance. 3 did better than hoped 3 did worse. Some didn’t catch fire but most did about as good as could be expected.

Zahid clearly gets the best US wrestler award, but HIdlay wins the award for the most entertaining match.  Even when he was down, you could see he was still in it.   This should be a match played over and over for young wrestlers.  His motor never changed through six minutes and you watched his opponent lose a little strength with each chest wrap.  It was quite a display of under and over achievement by the team, but overall a real testament to a strong squad.
