A folkstyle vs freestyle recruiting question. How much is a high schools wrestlers freestyle importance/ceiling considered vs what he's there for....college(folkstyle) team wrestling? We've had more wrestlers, it seems, participate in international competition the past 2-3 years. Maybe that's "just" the trend with the younger wrestlers coming up?? Maybe it's year round competition?? Maybe the wrestler's style/athletic skills lend themselves better to freestyle?? Regional training room are growing in importance thus by default impacting recruiting?? My question is almost prompted by Sam Fisher who, for me, passed the eye test/success test for international wrestling versus college wrestling?? How much does the staff consider freestyle potential and RTC impact on recruiting. APPRECIATE!! What makes me smile is how our guys conduct themselves off the mat as much as they do on the mat. ** Edited by wasris at 6/6/2026, 7:25:24 AM
