The United States will be led by 2016 Olympic champion and three-time world champion Helen Maroulis at 57kg. Maroulis became the first American woman to win an Olympic title in wrestling at the Rio Olympics in 2016, then became the first American woman to win two Olympic medals with her Olympic bronze in 2020 at the Tokyo Games.

2021 World Silver Medalist and 2020 Olympian Kayla Miracle will wrestle for Team USA at 62kg. Victoria Anthony, a two-time world senior team member and two-time world junior champion, is expected to wrestle at 50kg.

The U.S. women’s team is rounded out by 2021 World Junior Champion Kennedy Blades at 68kg and two-time World Senior Team member Victoria Francis at 76kg.

Mongolia will bring a talented squad, with a mix of established veterans and young emerging stars. Two of Mongolia’s athletes competed at the 2020 Olympics, Namuuntsetseg Tsogt-ochir, who finished fifth at 50kg and Bolortuya Khurelkhuu, who finished 10th at 57kg.
