The end of an era and the passing of the torch to a younger generation!  Let’s hope that Jordan helps Kyle win a gold medal much like Dave Schultz did with Kenny Monday.

agreed! hopefully he can put any beef they may have behind him and help him prepare. Pretty stoked for this team. Oliver is a bit of a surprise coming out of an absolutely LOADED 65 KG bracket, but this team is stacked! Bring on Tokyo!

I don’t think we’re qualified at 65kg yet. He’s going to have to make the finals of the last chance qualifier next month in Bulgaria.

65kg is only men's freestyle weight not yet qualified. If JO wants to be an Olympian it is in his hands now.  Interesting to see what the field will look like.

There are two Greco weights yet to qualify.  All of the women's weights are qualified.

Also, should be interesting to see if it is truly the end of an era for Burroughs or not.  I wouldn't write him off completely yet, he has said he isn't done.  Wouldn't count him out in the future at either... always possible Dake slides back up to 79 kg in the non-Olympic years as well.
