LAS VEGAS, Nev. – Kamal Bey of the Front Range Twisters needed three matches to defeat Jesse Porter of the New York AC/USOTS in the final series at 74 kg/163 lbs. to earn a berth on the UWW Junior World Team at the UWW Junior Nationals/World Team Trials at the South Point Hotel on Thursday.
Bey, who was a 2015 Junior Nationals champion and 2014 Cadet Nationals runner-up, was named Outstanding Wrestler after a memorable series against Porter, who was third in the 2015 UWW Junior Nationals. Both wrestlers executed great throws during the series, but it was Bey who came out on top.
The first match will be an internet classic. With the bout tied at 14-14, Porter scored two points in the final seconds to close out a 16-14 win. Both wrestlers had big throws in that first bout. In the second match, Bey took command, finishing with a 9-0 technical fall.
With Olympian T.C. Dantzler and past National Team member Herb House in his corner, Bey came out strong in the deciding third match with a 7-0 lead. But Porter came back hard with some throws and winning scramples, making it 9-4 and then 11-7 late in the third period. Porter could not score in the final 50 seconds, and Bey won the series and the World Team berth.
Winners in the eight UWW Junior World weights had to wrestle a best-of-three series. Winners in these weights will represent the United States at the 2016 UWW Junior World Championships in Macon, France, August 30-September 4.
Two members of 2015 UWW Junior World Team were dominant in repeating as champions, Dalton Roberts of NMU-OTS at 55 kg/121 lbs. and G’Angelo Hancock of the Front Range Twisters at 96 kg/211 lbs.
Roberts made his third straight Junior World Team. This year’s was a rematch of last year’s UWW Junior Nationals finals series at 50 kg/110 lbs., where he faced Jordan Martinez of the Front Range Twisters. This time, Roberts controlled the action in both matches, winning 8-1 in match one and 8-0 in the second bout.
Last year’ finals series required three matches, with Roberts winning the first, 9-6, Martinez taking the second, 13-9 and Roberts winning the deciding third match, 8-0. Roberts went on to place eighth at the 2015 UWW Junior Worlds.
Hancock showed his expansive abilities in a pair of technical falls in the finals series, stopping 2013 Cadet World Team member Angus Arthur of the New York AC/NMU, 10-0 in match one and 8-0 in match two. Arthur is a Div. III All-American for Adrian College.
Hancock did not place in last year’s UWW Junior World Championships. At 18 years old, he is already successful on the Senior level, and made Senior National Greco-Roman Team, after he was third in the 2016 U.S. Olympic Team Trials in Iowa City in April.
In a rivalry that goes back many years and includes matches in all three styles, Taylor LaMont of Champions WC and Mitchell McKee of the Minnesota Storm met at 60 kg/132 lbs. This year, it was all LaMont, who swept the finals series with a pair of pins, getting a fall in 1:47 in match one and in 5:20 in match two.
They split their finals match at the 2015 Junior Nationals, with McKee winning in the Greco-Roman finals, 4-2, while LaMont won in the freestyle finals, 15-5. McKee was third at last years’s UWW Junior Nationals. LaMont wrestled on three straight U.S. Cadet World Teams in Greco-Roman.
It was a good day for the Northern Michigan University – Olympic Training Site team, which placed three athletes on the UWW Junior World Team, Roberts, plus Randon Miranda at 50 kg/110 lbs. and Jamal DeArmond at 66 kg/145.5 lbs.
Miranda, a 2014 Junior Triple Crown winner from California, defeated 2015 Junior Nationals champion Dack Punke of Illinois in two straight matches. In bout one, he scored a pin in 2:28. In the second match, he had an 8-0 technical fall win. Last year, when Punke won his Fargo title, Miranda was fifth in the same weight class. After his freshman year of competing at NMU in Greco-Roman only, Miranda was able to make his first U.S. World Team. Punke was on the 2015 Cadet World Team.
DeArmond needed just two matches to defeat Jaron Jenson of Utah United, both very close battles. DeArmond won the first match 3-2, then added a 5-5 criteria win in the second bout for the sweep of the series. De Armond was third in last year’s UWW Junior Greco-Roman Nationals.
Two athletes who are finishing high school at Wyoming Seminary and have both signed with NC State were also champions and UWW Junior World Team members, Nick Reenan of the Dallas Dynamite WC at 84 kg/185 lbs. and Michael Rogers of Bison Legend WC at 120 kg/264.5 lbs.
In a battle of 2015 Junior Nationals Greco-Roman champions, Reenan defeated Wyatt Koelling of the Champions WC in two straight. He won the first match, 8-4 and the second match 10-4. Last year, Reenan was the Fargo champion at 182, while Koelling won at 195 pounds. Reenan was a member of the 2014 U.S. Cadet Greco-Roman Team.
Rogers, who was sixth at last year’s Junior Nationals defeated 2015 Cadet Nationals champion Nicholas Boykin of Murfreesboro in two straight matches, both technical falls. Rogers won the first match 14-6 and the second match 11-1.
There are three weight classes which have been added to the tournament which are not at the UWW Junior World Championships. In these weights, the finals was determined in one match.
At 63 kg/138.75 lbs., Francisco Casas of RMN-OTC had two big throws to score a 10-1 technical fall over won Ryan Leisure of Team Valley, 10-1.
The finals at 70 kg/154 lbs. was a rematch of the Western Junior Greco-Roman finals from earlier today. This time, Quentin Hovis of Arizona scored on a number of throws to score a 12-3 technical fall over Josiah Rider of Grand Junction, 12-3. This morning, Rider defeated Hovis, 12-2.
At 79 kg/174 lbs., NCAA Div. II All-American Jacobi Jones of CSU Pueblo Wrestling RTC scored a quick first period technical fall over Carter Nielsen of BWC, 8-0.
The UWW Junior Nationals begins on Friday and completes on Saturday.

LAS VEGAS, Nev. – Kamal Bey of the Front Range Twisters needed three matches to defeat Jesse Porter of the New York AC/USOTS in the final series at 74 kg/163 lbs. to earn a berth on the UWW Junior World Team at the UWW Junior Nationals/World Team Trials at the South Point Hotel on Thursday.
Bey, who was a 2015 Junior Nationals champion and 2014 Cadet Nationals runner-up, was named Outstanding Wrestler after a memorable series against Porter, who was third in the 2015 UWW Junior Nationals. Both wrestlers executed great throws during the series, but it was Bey who came out on top.
The first match will be an internet classic. With the bout tied at 14-14, Porter scored two points in the final seconds to close out a 16-14 win. Both wrestlers had big throws in that first bout. In the second match, Bey took command, finishing with a 9-0 technical fall.
With Olympian T.C. Dantzler and past National Team member Herb House in his corner, Bey came out strong in the deciding third match with a 7-0 lead. But Porter came back hard with some throws and winning scramples, making it 9-4 and then 11-7 late in the third period. Porter could not score in the final 50 seconds, and Bey won the series and the World Team berth.
Winners in the eight UWW Junior World weights had to wrestle a best-of-three series. Winners in these weights will represent the United States at the 2016 UWW Junior World Championships in Macon, France, August 30-September 4.
Two members of 2015 UWW Junior World Team were dominant in repeating as champions, Dalton Roberts of NMU-OTS at 55 kg/121 lbs. and G’Angelo Hancock of the Front Range Twisters at 96 kg/211 lbs.
Roberts made his third straight Junior World Team. This year’s was a rematch of last year’s UWW Junior Nationals finals series at 50 kg/110 lbs., where he faced Jordan Martinez of the Front Range Twisters. This time, Roberts controlled the action in both matches, winning 8-1 in match one and 8-0 in the second bout.
Last year’ finals series required three matches, with Roberts winning the first, 9-6, Martinez taking the second, 13-9 and Roberts winning the deciding third match, 8-0. Roberts went on to place eighth at the 2015 UWW Junior Worlds.
Hancock showed his expansive abilities in a pair of technical falls in the finals series, stopping 2013 Cadet World Team member Angus Arthur of the New York AC/NMU, 10-0 in match one and 8-0 in match two. Arthur is a Div. III All-American for Adrian College.
Hancock did not place in last year’s UWW Junior World Championships. At 18 years old, he is already successful on the Senior level, and made Senior National Greco-Roman Team, after he was third in the 2016 U.S. Olympic Team Trials in Iowa City in April.
In a rivalry that goes back many years and includes matches in all three styles, Taylor LaMont of Champions WC and Mitchell McKee of the Minnesota Storm met at 60 kg/132 lbs. This year, it was all LaMont, who swept the finals series with a pair of pins, getting a fall in 1:47 in match one and in 5:20 in match two.
They split their finals match at the 2015 Junior Nationals, with McKee winning in the Greco-Roman finals, 4-2, while LaMont won in the freestyle finals, 15-5. McKee was third at last years’s UWW Junior Nationals. LaMont wrestled on three straight U.S. Cadet World Teams in Greco-Roman.
It was a good day for the Northern Michigan University – Olympic Training Site team, which placed three athletes on the UWW Junior World Team, Roberts, plus Randon Miranda at 50 kg/110 lbs. and Jamal DeArmond at 66 kg/145.5 lbs.
Miranda, a 2014 Junior Triple Crown winner from California, defeated 2015 Junior Nationals champion Dack Punke of Illinois in two straight matches. In bout one, he scored a pin in 2:28. In the second match, he had an 8-0 technical fall win. Last year, when Punke won his Fargo title, Miranda was fifth in the same weight class. After his freshman year of competing at NMU in Greco-Roman only, Miranda was able to make his first U.S. World Team. Punke was on the 2015 Cadet World Team.
DeArmond needed just two matches to defeat Jaron Jenson of Utah United, both very close battles. DeArmond won the first match 3-2, then added a 5-5 criteria win in the second bout for the sweep of the series. De Armond was third in last year’s UWW Junior Greco-Roman Nationals.
Two athletes who are finishing high school at Wyoming Seminary and have both signed with NC State were also champions and UWW Junior World Team members, Nick Reenan of the Dallas Dynamite WC at 84 kg/185 lbs. and Michael Rogers of Bison Legend WC at 120 kg/264.5 lbs.
In a battle of 2015 Junior Nationals Greco-Roman champions, Reenan defeated Wyatt Koelling of the Champions WC in two straight. He won the first match, 8-4 and the second match 10-4. Last year, Reenan was the Fargo champion at 182, while Koelling won at 195 pounds. Reenan was a member of the 2014 U.S. Cadet Greco-Roman Team.
Rogers, who was sixth at last year’s Junior Nationals defeated 2015 Cadet Nationals champion Nicholas Boykin of Murfreesboro in two straight matches, both technical falls. Rogers won the first match 14-6 and the second match 11-1.
There are three weight classes which have been added to the tournament which are not at the UWW Junior World Championships. In these weights, the finals was determined in one match.
At 63 kg/138.75 lbs., Francisco Casas of RMN-OTC had two big throws to score a 10-1 technical fall over won Ryan Leisure of Team Valley, 10-1.
The finals at 70 kg/154 lbs. was a rematch of the Western Junior Greco-Roman finals from earlier today. This time, Quentin Hovis of Arizona scored on a number of throws to score a 12-3 technical fall over Josiah Rider of Grand Junction, 12-3. This morning, Rider defeated Hovis, 12-2.
At 79 kg/174 lbs., NCAA Div. II All-American Jacobi Jones of CSU Pueblo Wrestling RTC scored a quick first period technical fall over Carter Nielsen of BWC, 8-0.
