Alumni Make Their Who's #1 Picks
Here are the picks for this year's Who's #1 from five wresters who previously competed in the event, which returns to the Snakepit in Bethlehem, PA, this Sunday at 1 PM CST and is streaming LIVE on FloWrestling.
Entering its fifth year, Who's #1 has become a marquee event of the wrestling season and one of the first big folkstyle competitions of the fall. As the popularity of WNO has grown, so has the list of wrestlers who have competed in the annual high school dual and gone on to become NCAA All-Americans, nationals champions, and world champions.
While many of these standouts have found success at the next level and beyond, their interest in this high-profile showcase hasn't waned.
