Looking for a weight class with potentially great wrestling, compelling stories and plenty of drama?

This weight class simply has it all. It's the weight class that nobody wants to miss at the U.S. World Team Trials.

A star-studded field, featuring five NCAA champions who have combined to win the last three Hodge Trophy awards, is set to take the mat in men's freestyle at 74 kg/163 lbs.

Olympic and World champion Jordan Burroughs headlines the loaded field that will compete at 74 kilos at the Trials, set for June 21-22 in Stillwater, Okla.

The explosive, powerful Burroughs is a perfect 54-0 on the Senior level. He defeated 2012 NCAA champion and Hodge Trophy winner David Taylor in April
