Y2CJ41 Posted September 15, 2016 Author Share Posted September 15, 2016 Here is a general bracket breakdown with 17 wrestlers. Bottom half Boyd vs. Belarus Russia vs. Turkey Canada vs. Kazakastan Germany vs. winner of Bulgaria vs. Japan Usually Japan is lights out in women's wrestling so it is good she wouldn't see their rep until the semi-finals. As always Russians are good at this sport so that could be a tough quarter final match. Coach McCormick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maligned Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 (edited) This has fast become a very developed event in the few years they've had worlds for the UWW cadet classification. Many olympic contenders had strong cadet-level credentials in their background. The top nations mostly send the very best talent they can. Our ladies took 2 medals and a 5th place from 5 weight classes today, including a 3rd and a 5th in the two weight classes above and below Alara. She will be a very legitimate medal contender.

Y2CJ41 Posted September 16, 2016 Author Share Posted September 16, 2016 Very impressive run for her. Even more impressive is she's a first year UWW Cadet, meaning she has two more shots at a world title. infowrestling and bwoodjc89 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
