Not a huge name, but interested to see how well LJ Araujo handles the cut to 165.

US Greco. They won 2 or 3 more matches than I thought they would

I’d be down to cut Greco completely if it meant more participation in the freestyle ranking series.

I think Barr has the frame to move up to 97Kg and challenge a nearly 32-year-old Kyle Snyder. Give him like a 15% chance. He can go 285 his senior year and let Cole Mirasola Olympic redshirt.

Ditching folkstyle doesn’t seem to help the women’s team. Woof. Looks like Budapest wasn’t a fluke.

Way to go, Trent!!!

Hidlay should win this, right? This guy lost to Mike Mach?

Lose to Carr and you’d still have your knee. Maybe think about that next time!!!

Why shouldn’t Takahashi get his two points there, though?

I don’t. Every year a new guy catches him. On the world stage, I imagine it’s 3 or 4.

USA looking even healthier if Jax fills into a 65KG. Only worrisome weights should be 70 and 125. Assuming Duke moves up to battle Carr and Mesenbrink. Not sure Ridge scores enough to be comfortable rep and Bassett/Valencia probably too small. Kasak doesn’t seem too interested in freestyle. Taylor intriguing prospect but will have to make another jump and keep his weight down for a long time. Dreshaun Ross probably going to have to be the post-Gable savior. Might take 2 or 3 years though and he has a shoulder history.

Lost 2-2 to Zain at Olympic qualifier

Sujeet gonna be quite the challenge for Woods, but he did get 9-0’d by Japan’s number two this year. edit- I’m an idiot, it was a forfeit.

From my understanding, there are reinforcements on their way up for the women’s team in lighter-middle weights, but the current team seems like it’s in bad shape right now.

What a friggin tournament for Zahid!
