RTC supplements VT
and by winning the US Open the RTC athletes(Bo and Ryan) gained funding from USA Wrestling to take the trip among other benefits. Walz was there as an RTC/Club Coach technically. In reality we know he's a VT coach but I believe all of our coaches are also RTC/Club Coaches.
To answer the question - J'Den Cox is the director of the USA U20 team running the camps/trip and there are other appointed coaches to oversee the trip but guys bring their personal coaches as long as they're certified with USA Wrestling. For example at U20 Trials Seidel had Marsteller (his club coach) and Frayer in his corner. Bo had his dad and Frayer. Probably will see those same pairings at worlds.

VT won’t even let the RTC use Hokies; I’m sure no money is changing hands.**
