Jayden’s feel on those seatbelt positions is like a cheat code.
Penn State wrestling commit Jayden James wins U17 World Championship; here's how he helped Team USA win a title
Penn State wrestling Class of 2026 commit Jayden James won his first World championship on Saturday in Athens, Greece.
… or did the single team point earned by Iran for the late takedown vs JJ clinch it for them?
Team USA wins the team title again. It swept all of its matches and Iran lost all of its to put the Americans on top.
Like I said, there was a chance! Pretty incredible.
well how soon before Iran magically finds 4 more points or USA gets deducted 4 points
Keegan looks much better at 99/100 then he does at 106, also has much better performances in Free than Folk. But if he is a late bloomer physically/in folk he could have some real prospect helium
Great tournament by the U.S. wrestlers! I do wish there was more interest in freestyle among the general college wrestling fans. Our board had by far the most U17 posts, with 262 and counting. The Oklahoma State board did have a U17 thread, but it only had five posts. The Iowa board didn't even have a U17 thread : (
Incredible job by Team USA. I honestly didn't think Iran would lose every bout today, and that must sting a lot for them. I'm gonna try not to lose any sleep over that lol. I'm excited to have JJ in house, and hopefully Sanchez and Bassett as well.
This is a great match to watch. Some amazing D by Jayden in the 1st period.

Pretty inspiring overall from Greco to ladies to how they closed this out in freestyle.
memories for the team for a lifetime!

Today sort of reminded me of PSUs performance on Saturday of Nationals this year.
Keegan definitely looks like he is taller and more muscular than he was during the high school season. I’d guess that 44kgs was a very tough cut for him.
I dont know the Bishop McCort lineup that well but is it likely that Keegan is at 113 and little Forrest at 121? Any chance that Keegan gets up to 21 for the upcoming season, similar to Beau’s big weight jump between freshman and sophomore seasons?
EDIT: I stand corrected - Keegan said he plans on wrestling 107 this season (interview posted on pg 8)

Wyoming Seminary transfer Shamus Regan will start somewhere in there too. He wrestled 121 this past year.
Re: Iowa lacking interest in Cadet Worlds.why would they. no one to follow.
The next round of crushing expectations will fall on Leo Deluca and Harvey Ludington as that's pretty much the extent of their recruiting “haul” this year.
Rinse and repeat
The family tree is a telephone pole???It is Appalachia. All of those can be true.
