Kyle Snyder is headed to his third straight Olympics.
After winning gold in his Olympic debut in Rio de Janeiro while still competing for Ohio State in 2016, then following that up with a silver medal at the Tokyo Games in 2021, Snyder will compete in the Olympics again in Paris this summer after winning the 97kg freestyle bracket at the U.S. Olympic Trials.
Snyder, who had a bye to the best-of-three finals after winning a bronze medal in his weight class at the 2023 World Championships, defeated current N.C. State wrestler Isaac Trumble in two straight matches, 5-0 and 4-0, to secure the United States’ berth in the weight class in Paris.
