    Stieber, Green win titles at Non-Olympic Weight World Team Trials

    NEW YORK, N.Y. -- The U.S. World Team for the Non-Olympic Weight World Championships has its men's freestyle team members, Logan Stieber (Columbus, Ohio/Titan Mercury WC/Ohio RTC) at 61 kg/134 lbs. and James Green (Lincoln, Neb./Titan Mercury WC) at 70 kilograms/154 pounds.

    Green, 2015 World bronze medalist, scored a two-match sweep over Jordan Oliver (Tempe, Ariz./Sunkist Kids) in two very close matches. Green scored on a stepout and a shot clock violation in the first match for a 2-1 win. In the second match, trailing 3-2 in the second period, Green hit a counter ankle pick with 1:30 left for a 4-3 victory.

    Based upon the Trials procedures in men's freestyle, Green sat out until the Championship Series because of his 2015 World medal, while Oliver had to win a loaded Challenge Tournament on Friday morning to earn his spot in the finals series.
