Trent Hidlay Earns Spot on Junior World Team

RALEIGH, N.C. – With two straight wins in the best two-of-three finals at the 2019 World Team Trials taking place in Reynolds Coliseum this weekend, R-Fr. Trent Hidlay has now advanced to represent the U.S. at the 2019 Junior World Championships.
The 2019 Junior World Championships will be in Estonia August 12-18. At the World Team Trials, Hidlay earned a bye into the finals series after he earned top honors at the U.S. Open in Las Vegas last weekend. Hidlay faced over against Virginia’s Victor Marcelli, who also redshirted as a true freshman this past college season, in the finals. Falling behind 4-0 in both of his bouts, Hidlay came back to win 12-7 and then 11-4 to secure the victory in his home arena. The Wolfpack had a pair of entrants into the UWW Junior Freestyle Nationals, and in addition to Hidlay placing first, fellow redshirt freshman Jarrett Trombley took third. At 61 kg, Trombley’s run at the World Team Trials started with a loss, then he reeled off three straight wins to finish third at his weight.
