Half the men's freestyle squad at the 2024 U20 World Championships are affiliated with the Penn State wrestling program. One redshirt freshman (Josh Barr), three incoming freshmen (Luke Lilledahl, Zack Ryder, and Connor Mirasola) and one high school senior commit (PJ Duke) will be going for gold in Pontevedra, Spain.

The 2024 U20 World Championships are going down in Ponte Vedre, Spain from September 2-8 and will feature international wrestling’s future stars. Team USA is sending a loaded squad in the men’s freestyle division that will take the mats in Spain from September 6-8. Check out the below article for a full preview with predictions for USA’s men’s freestyle team at the U20 World Championships.

As mentioned in our College Fan Guide to U20 Worlds, Penn State wrestlers, coaches and fans will be quite busy during the men's freestyle portion of this year's age-level championship event.

One of my favorite age-level tournaments of the year has arrived - the Junior World Team Trials. The nation’s best high school upperclassmen and college underclassmen will put it on the line for a chance to represent their country overseas.

The U23 Nationals and U20 World Team Trials brackets will be both massive (mostly the U23 ones) and stacked with some of the most talented and credentialed college wrestlers in the country.

The U17 World Championships have kicked off with Greco and will wrap up this weekend with men’s freestyle. Below is almost everything you need to know for men’s freestyle. I say almost because, with Russia and Belarus’ recently lifted ban, it’s hard to find data on their athletes and many of the ones going to Worlds did not compete at the European Championships. However, it’s probably safe to assume anyone they are bringing (they will show up in the entries and brackets as AIN), will be pretty good.

The 2023 U17 World Championships is live on FloWrestling from July 31-August 6. The men’s freestyle competition is August 4-6 at the Başakşehir Gençlik ve Spor İlçe Müdürlüğü Tesisleri in Istanbul, Turkey.

This year's U17 US Open is as deep as any tournament in recent memory. There aren't many top high schoolers who haven't registered, so wrestling fans should expect to see some of the best high school action of the year with a whole lot at stake. Here's what to expect at every weight.

On the Senior level, the US Open will set the stage for Final X, but there's plenty to watch at the U17 and U20 divisions as well. The U17 division will conclude with a best-of-three series that will decide the World Team, shake up the high school rankings, and establish some wrestlers' cases to be in Who's Number One. High Schoolers in the U20 division will compete against other elite peers but will also test themselves against guys who have been seasoned in college rooms for a year or two.

Penn State kicked off its 2024 recruiting class Friday in a big way.

Who's Number One gives college wrestling fans a glimpse of what they can look forward to in just a few years on the NCAA stage. we've seen matchups between NCAA finalists like Jason Nolf vs Joey McKenna in 2013, Nick Suriano vs Daton Fix and Zahid Valencia vs Myles Martin in 2014, and Nick Lee vs Sammy Sasso in 2016. The athletes at Who's Number One will make their mark in college wrestling. Get ready for Friday's action by seeing who's already committed, and read about the uncommitted recruits who your team might snag.

The top two guys at 182 pounds in the soon-to-be-released post-Fargo rankings are both new to this weight class. Brayden Thompson has been competing at 170 lbs since last year when he made his Who’s Number One debut. Since that time, he has stood out as one of the top recruits in the class of 2023 by qualifying for the U20 World Team, finishing 6th at the Senior US Open, and winning a loaded Powerade bracket at 172 lbs. Thompson will compete in the U20 World Championships later this month.

Team USA men’s freestyle squad finished the U17 World Championships in dominant fashion by winning all four of their medal matches on the final day of competition. Dom Muneretto (45kg), Luke Lilledahl (51kg), and Joe Sealey (71kg) all won gold with Max McEnelly (92kg) earning bronze.
