    After much speculation, David Taylor has entered the World Team Trials at 92 kg and will compete on September 14-15 to earn the right to represent Team USA at the 2024 World Championships. Taylor is already an Olympic and 3-time world champion and will be the favorite to make the team.

    Mar 12, 2023

    Similar to last year, the 197-pound bracket has no clear favorite and no wrestler’s seed will likely mean much. Returning champion Gabe Dean enters as the nine-seed following a 20-3 season where he lost, 6-3, in the Big Ten finals to Nebraska’s Silas Allred. This weight is a tangled plate of spaghetti that should be the most chaotic bracket of the tournament.
