Do you realize just how loaded these weight classes are on the senior level at the US Open? 

Well, in case you didn't realize it, he's a look at the numbers. We went weight-by-weight and checked out just how big the trophy case would have to be for the entire field coming to Vegas looking to get one step closer to making this year's Senior World Team.

Of note, Jared Frayer and Frank Molinaro are the lone Olympians in the freestyle field. Frayer was on the 2012 team and Molinaro was on the 2016 team
