Also in men's freestyle, C.C. Fisher (Colorado Springs, Colo./Unattached) and Matt Gentry (Palo Alto, Calif./Sunkist Kids) did not place after losing early bouts at 74 kg/163 lbs.

In women's freestyle competition, both U.S. competitors won gold medals - Marcie Van Dusen (Colorado Springs, Colo./Sunkist Kids) at 55 kg/121 lbs. and Alaina Berube (Escanaba, Mich./New York AC) at 63 kg/138.75 lbs.
