A group of current and former DIII wrestlers has qualified for the 2021 World Team Trials. All wrestlers who qualified for the Olympic Trials are qualified along with those who have qualified through other events. There is one more chance to qualify via winning the Last Chance Qualifier set to take place in July. The winners of the World Team Trials will represent the U.S. in the 2021 World Championships in Oslo, Norway. Any wrestler who wins a medal in the Tokyo Olympics this summer will automatically earn a spot on the 2021 world team.
