Expand TweetTyler Kasak is legit, and with that win, he’s proving he’s got a serious future in this sport. Oh, and did we mention he snagged a U17 World silver medal in 2022? Yeah, he’s been on fire for a minute—Kasak’s style? Smooth. He scored a sick takedown in the second period and locked in control with some tight defense, keeping Teemer from making any moves. That 5-2 victory wasn’t just a flash in the pan; it’s a sign of things to come for the Nittany Lions’ future star. And by the way, the rest of the Lions didn’t lay back; the arena was full of action!
Enter Rei Higuchi, Japan’s icon freestyle wrestler who bagged Olympic gold at Paris 2024 in the 57 kg division. He took to X (formerly Twitter) on February 1st to share his thoughts on Tyler Kasak. And get this—he kept it short and sweet, simply saying, “Kasak is a good wrestler.” For someone as legendary as Higuchi to drop that kind of praise? HUGE. We’re talking about a wrestler who knows greatness when he sees it.Kasak is good wrestler.
