Brad Vering of the Sunkist Kids made his mark on international Greco-Roman wrestling last season, earning the No. 1 spot in the United States then placing a strong fifth at the 2002 World Championships. Vering was competitive nationally in Greco-Roman even during his college career at Nebraska where he won a NCAA title. Since leaving folkstyle behind, Vering has quickly progressed in the classic style, training full-time now at the U.S. Olympic Training Center.     Vering only has a slight edge on his American opponents, making this a weight class that could be volatile this season. Winning his first U.S. Nationals title last year was veteran Ethan Bosch of the New York AC, a dangerous competitor who often scores pins against his opponents. Bosch beat Vering in the finals in Las Vegas last year, but fell short in the World Team Trials finals. Bosch was second in the 2000 Olympic Team Trials, and still seeks his first spot on a U.S. World or Olympic team.    Another crafty veteran, Kenny Owens of the U.S. Marines, captured the No. 3 spot on the national team ladder this year. Owens has made it to the finals of the U.S. Nationals in the past, but still seeks his first Senior national title. 2000 Olympian Quincey Clark of the Minnesota Storm, who controlled this division during a two-year stretch (1999-00), remains a serious threat to reclaim the top spot.    Aaron Sieracki of the U.S. Air Force, who has won the Armed Forces title many times, has scored wins over almost everybody at this weight at some time. Chael Sonnen of the Dave Schultz WC is a proven winner at this division, taking fourth at last year's U.S. Nationals. Sonnen has wrestled up in weight over the past year.  College star Carl Fronhofer of the New York AC made the NCAA finals this year as a senior at Pittsburgh, and now graduates to concentrate completely on his Greco-Roman. Fronhofer has made U.S. age-group World Teams, and has a future on the Senior level if he chooses to pursue it.    Josh Millard of the USOEC, Joey Clark of the U.S. Marines and Mike Mathers of the USOEC are other talented athletes seeking to rise in the standings. Joey's brother Jake Clark of the U.S. Marines was the University Nationals champion this year, beating Millard in the finals. If Jake Clark stays up at this division, he also becomes a serious challenger    With another Olympics on the horizon, will past Olympians Matt Lindland of the Sunkist Kids or Dan Henderson of the Dave Schultz WC consider a return to wrestling? Both competed as recently as the 2001 season, when Lindland beat Henderson in the finals at the World Team Trials. Both have been concentrating on their careers in mixed martial arts. A return by Lindland or Henderson would really make this interesting. Lindland has won Olympic and World silver medals, but does not yet have his coveted gold. In addition, he is a friend and mentor to the current No. 1 star, Brad Vering.    84 kg/185 lbs.  1st - Ethan Bosch, Colorado Springs, Colo. (New York AC) dec.
