Pa in Taiwan Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 At this point, Japan has 5 World Champions and two wrestlers vying for Gold. If these two succeed, Japan will have gold in 7 out of 10 weight classes. Even without these two golds, this is dominance. Congratulations to the Japanese Women's Freestyle Team. They are hammers! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrestleknownothing Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 It is an amazing performance. And their fans are pretty first class, too. Having sat next to a few at the arena, I came away impressed. Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CA_Wrestler Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 As reported on the UWW site, Susaki competed with a torn knee ligament, wasn't really able to train properly and didn't go to national team camp prior for leaving to Belgrade.

peanut Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Penn State and NLWC seem to have that Mormon Zen. Maybe the Japanese women’s team has that Zen Zen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
