I haven't seen a list of all the contestants, so I'm not sure which PSUers are participating. So far, I've seen indications that the following have registered:

Levi Haines (79 Kg)
Cole Mirasola (92 Kg)
Connor Mirasola (92 Kg)

Edit:
- add PJ Duke (PSU verbal) to the list

These are pre-seeds. They were released before the registration deadline, so take them for what they're worth.

Cole is out. Withdrew about the same time Connor registered. Guessing Cole's entry was either in error or as a placeholder until Connor could register.

Saw that and wondered the same.

Taylor is in at 92kg.


Taylor will be the No. 1 seed at 92 kilograms assuming he makes weight Saturday (and why wouldn't he, of course). From USA Wrestling:

"The World Team Trials Procedures allows for a 2023 Senior World medalist at an Olympic weight class who enters the World Team Trials at an adjacent weight class, “that individual will receive an automatic #1 seed at the 2024 World Team Trials Challenge Tournament.”

"Since Taylor was a 2023 World champion at 86 kg, and has registered at the adjacent 92 kg, he qualifies for the No. 1 seed at 92 kg."

just a heads up -- I've got a lot on my schedule today and tomorrow, so I'm unlikely to be able to post much about this event.
