All Of The Greco Entries For The Olympics
Greco-Roman

Team USA is sending four athletes in Greco, three of whom will be participating in their first Olympic Games. Back in 2012, Jesse Thielke was taking bronze at junior worlds; he enters the Games ranked 19th in the world. Although he qualified the weight for London, Andy Bisek did not place at the Olympic Team Trials. He has been bronze at the past world championships and is ranked No. 5 by UWW.

Ben Provisor is the only Greco holdover from the 2012 Games, back when he was at 74kg. Replacing Dremiel Byers is no easy task, but after placing fifth last year in Vegas, Robby Smith wants to become a Greco legend in America.

The only weight where the top-ranked wrestler is not entered is 98kg. All Russian entries are provisional, pending final approval from the Court of Arbitration for Sport and the IOC.
