Two U17 World Teamers, Bouzakis & Delgado, Clash At WNO At 100lbs
Two 2024 U17 World Teamers, Jaclyn Bouzakis and Hailey Delgado, are set to wrestle at 100-pounds at this year's Who's Number One.
Two U17 World Teamers will collide at 100-pounds at this year's Who's Number One, as Hailey Delgado, who made the team at 43 kilograms, will be moving up in weight to take on Jaclyn Bouzakis, the #1 ranked high schooler at 100lbs and the 2024 46kg U17 world rep.
Jacyln Bouzakis, a rising sophomore at Wyoming Seminary, spent most of her freshman year near or at the top of the national high school rankings at both 95 and 100 pounds. She cemented her status as the top 100-pounder to beat when she won both the 46kg World Team Trials and the 16U national championship in Fargo at 100lbs.
Watch Bouzakis win a Fargo stop sign over Madison Nieuwenhuis last July:
Additionally, Jaclyn's rival Morgan Turner is moving up a weight class to 105, leaving Bouzakis as the clear number one at 100lbs.
Sliding into the 100lb weight class is Hailey Delgado, who ended the 2023-24 season as the number one ranked 95-pounder in the nation. Delgado hails from El Paso, Texas, not typically known as a wrestling hot-bed, but that's something Delgado is hoping to change.
Though still just 14 years old, the rising freshman already made the U17 world team at 43kg.
Watch Delgado claim the U17 world team spot back in April at Women's Nationals:
Delgado also has international experience from making the 2024 U17 PanAm team and the 2023 U15 PanAm team. She claimed U17 PanAm silver this summer and U15 PanAm gold last year.
Bouzakis' international credentials include a U17 bronze medal from 2023. She also comes from a family of wrestlers. There are now three Bouzakis siblings with Fargo titles, as Jaclyn's older brothers Vince and Nic also have stop-signs (along with a laundry list of other distinctions).
A select number of tickets to Who's Number One are still available. Click here to purchase!
