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?
