Olympic medalists Snyder and Cox enter rare territory upon return to NCAA competition
October 05, 2016

 


American wrestling prodigies Kyle Snyder and J'den Cox entered rarified air this summer by winning medals at the Olympic Games as college-age competitors.

Snyder became the youngest U.S. wrestler to win the Olympics at age 20. Cox turned in a bronze medal effort as a 21-year-old. Both men will soon return to the wrestling mat and represent their respective college programs, Ohio State and Missouri, on the NCAA Division I level.

The question is now begged, exactly how rare are the Olympic-level accomplishments of these two transcendent talents?
