Team USA Ready For Pan American Games

Team USA Ready For Pan American Games

Team USA Ready For Pan American Games

Both the Cadet and Junior teams have put on pretty dominant showings at their respective Pan American Championship Games and now it's time for the senior level Greco and Freestyle men and women to follow up with some greatness of their own in Toronto, Canada.

Olympic and World Champ Jordan Burroughs will look to lead a tough team to victory in the Men's Freestyle tournament as Spenser Mango and Robby Smith lead the Greco team. Adeline Gray is all set to get the women's Freestyle team on the right track and claim her fifth title of the year.

So let's take a look at the teams.



 

 57kg: Angel Escobedo
 
The former world team member was added to the roster in place of Tony Ramos, who currently owns the 57kg World Team spot. Escobedo placed fifth at the 2013 World Championships in Budapest and is fresh off a third place finish at the World Teams Trials in Madison, Wisconsin.
 



65kg: Brent Metcalf
 
The Mossy Oaks Monster with the lefty high crotch will look to continue his winning ways after claiming the U.S. Open title and yet another spot on the World Team. In 2012, Metcalf placed second at the Pan American Olympic qualifier and will be in the hunt for yet another finals appearance.
 



74kg: Jordan Burroughs
 
The Man, the myth, the legend (in the making). He’s won everything from the U.S Open to the Olympics and everything in between. He will look to lead the US team to victory in Toronto as he sets his sights on another title. Every competition he enters, he’s the clear-cut favorite no matter if it’s wrestling or checkers.
 



86kg: Jake Herbert
 
The return of the Double Leg Ninja has been a deadly one. He’s avenged his loss to former 86kg World Team member Ed Ruth and put a double stack of emphasis on the rivalry with his dominant wins in the World Team Trials finals. Since reclaiming his spot on the World Team he has taken one loss that still had people thoroughly impressed. This will be another test for Herbert as he prepares for the World Championships.
 
 

97kg: Kyle Snyder
 
The history making 19 year old has been on a mission since he took a devastating loss in the NCAA finals. He took out Olympic champ Jake Varner – three straight times – with a win over #6 Javier Cortina Lacerra of Cuba at Beat The Streets coming shortly after his first win over the former 97kg spot holder. So far he’s been up for the test on the senior level after taking third at Junior Worlds last summer. Pan Ams will be another stepping-stone for the Olympic hopeful.
 

125kg: Tervel Dlagnev
 
Though he’s still sitting atop of the throne, it’s been a bit rough for Dlagnev as he attempts to recover from a back injury. He will be testing it out as he looks to grab Pan Am gold once again.











48kg: Alyssa Lampe
 
After a runner-up finish at the U.S. Open, Lampe fought her way through the challenge tournament and took out Open champion Victoria Anthony in two straight matches to take the 48kg spot on the World Team. Hopefully, she can stay true to her winning ways at Pan-Ams as she prepares for Worlds.
 



53kg: Whitney Conder
 
Conder has been very dominant so far this year with wins at the Dave Schultz Memorial, U.S. Open and Guelph Open in Canada before cementing her place on another World Team with wins at the WTT. Now she will look to bring back some hardware from Canada.
 




63kg: Erin Clodgo
 
Defended her World Team spot by once again defeating Amanda Hendey in the finals of the WTT. Hendey closed the gap at the trials after taking a 9-3 loss at the U.S. Open, but Clodgo was too much in the best of three series and maintained her spot at the top. Pan-Ams will be a nice test for Clodgo.
 



75kg: Adeline Gray
 
The World Champ is always ready to go. So this will be a nice little tune up for her as she gets ready to claim another World title. She’s been a hammer once again this year and has been riding that momentum throughout. Look for her to bring back the gold.










59kg: Spenser Mango
 
Nothing but high-flying action whenever this multiple time U.S. Open champ is on the mat. He keeps things interesting and very exiting. After a third place finish at last year’s Pan-Ams and second at the Pan-Ams in Chile, he would certainly like to claim a better finish. His great wins as of late prove that he is ready to finish at the top this year.

 

66kg: Bryce Saddoris
 
It hasn’t taken Saddoris very long to become the number one guy at 66kg. He successfully claimed another spot on the World Team after a great performance at the U.S. Open and comeback at the WTT after dropping the first match to Alejandro Sancho. His return to the Pan-Am games will be one with high expectations after coming up short in the finals last year.

 

75kg: Andy Bisek
 
The bruiser known as Andy Bisek will return to Pan-Ams after winning the title last season. For the last five years he’s been a force for Team USA and is set to make a huge splash in Las Vegas at Worlds in an effort to impress upon his third place finish from a season ago. 
 



85kg: Jon Anderson
 
Anderson may not have claimed the number one spot at 85kg, which has belonged to Jordan Holm for quite some time, but he’s not to be overlooked. He is also a returning champ and can surely repeat once again. After three runner-up finishes at the Open, Trials and Schultz, he’s ready to stand atop the podium.
 
 


98kg: Caylor Williams
 
Last year’s third place finish at Pan-Ams certainly doesn’t sit well with the two-time U.S. Open champ. As he preps for Worlds with the rest of Team USA, a top finish here would do well to give him some momentum. Williams will definitely be letting it fly at this year’s games.





 
130kg: Robby Smith
 
He’s already got one Pan-Ams title this year after winning in Chile earlier this year. It’s no secret that messing with Robby Smith (or his beard) is never a good idea. The five-time world team member will be looking to pick up some steam heading into the World Championships after not placing last year, and collecting another title in Toronto could surely do the trick.
