Lindbergh High School alum Will Scherer finished second in his weight class in the 2026 U20 Greco-Roman U.S. Open, held April 22-26 at The Expo at World Market Center Las Vegas. This has earned him a spot on the United States Men’s U20 National Team.

Scherer will now represent Team USA for the first time at the Pan-American Championships in Rio de Janeiro this July. He will be competing at 77 kg against some of the top U20 wrestlers in the world.
