The United States will enter a team in Greco-Roman and men’s freestyle at the FILA Cadet Pan American Wrestling Championships in Manaus, Brazil, July 16-18. 

Cadets are wrestlers who are 15-17 years old. The Pan American Championships feature nations from North, Central and South America.

Rylan Lubeck of Vesper, Wis. was a 2010 FILA Cadet Nationals champion in Greco-Roman at 63 kg/138.75 lbs. Most of the rest of the U.S. FILA Cadet Pan American team were All-Americans at one or both styles at the FILA Cadet Nationals this season.

Six of the team members will compete in both freestyle and Greco-Roman at the competition. 

The team will be coached by Doug Brown of Salt Lake City, Utah and Matt Hampton of Evanston, Ill., who organized the tour for these young athletes.

Greco-Roman competition will be on Friday, July 18, with women’s freestyle on Saturday, July 17 and men’s freestyle on Sunday, July 18. 

The USA did not enter a team in the women’s freestyle division at this competition, sending its FILA Cadet team to the Canada Cup instead.
