U23 World Team Lineup Finalized

17 U.S. Senior National Team athletes have accepted their opportunities to represent the United States at the U23 World Championships in Pontevedra, Spain, in October.

Per the World Team selection procedures, the highest-ranked, age-eligible 2022 U.S. National Team member has the first right of refusal for the U23 World Team spot at their respective style and weight class and must have accepted by June 27, 2022. If no one from the Senior National Team meets the requirement at a weight or declines the spot, then the wrestler that won the U23 Nationals tournaments in May and June would earn the nod.
