USA Wrestling developed the Performance Index (PIN) April of 2023 as a new data-driven measurement for every athlete member of the organization who has results at USA Wrestling events, United World Wrestling events and other major competitions.

The PIN has been used to separate athletes at a number of major USA Wrestling national events this spring and summer, with an excellent record of predicting what athletes might reach the finals or earn a spot on the podium.

USA Wrestling posts the PIN for each entry at the U15 Pan American Team Trials, which will be held at the U.S. Air Force Academy Cadet Fieldhouse, which is north of Colorado Springs, Colo., August 12-23. They are posted based upon the weight class where they have registered.

The PIN has been revised to consider a specific style (freestyle, Greco-Roman, folkstyle). For this review, we are looking at the freestyle PIN for the men’s and women’s freestyle athletes competing in those disciplines this weekend, and look at the Greco-Roman PIN for those in the Greco-Roman discipline.

Athletes must qualify to compete in the U15 Pan American Team Trials. The field is loaded with champions and All-Americans in major USA Wrestling competitions, including the 2023 U15 National Championships. The results from this event will determine the U.S. team to compete at the U15 Pan American Championships in Panama City, Panama, November 23-26.

The Final X Special Wrestle-off between Helen Maroulis and Xochitl Mota-Pettis will be held on Saturday at 1:00 p.m. alongside the U15 Pan American Team Trials.The events are broadcast live on FloWrestling

ABOUT THE USA WRESTLING PIN

• The USA Wrestling Performance Index (PIN) measures consistency over time and rates the probability of a person winning against an opponent based on their bodies of work.
• A person with a higher PIN is considered more likely to beat someone with a lower PIN and the closer the PINs are between athletes, the closer the probability gets to 50/50 chances.
• This does not reward the one-time win or head-to-head over an opponent. What it does is reward an athlete’s consistency over time. If you consistently beat people with higher PINs, you will gain PIN points to surpass them in the index, given that you do not lose to lesser competition along the way.
• The more you wrestle, the more opportunity you have to change your PIN.
• The baseline number for a person’s PIN is 1,000 points. The more points your PIN has above 1,000 reflects positive success against your opponents.
• An athlete’s PIN, will constantly be updated based upon a member’s results against their specific opponents.

USA Wrestling PIN released for every entry in U15 Pan American Team Trials this weekend
