The youngest wrestler ever to win a gold medal, Kyle Snyder is not a household name, despite his performance in Rio. He should be. Snyder’s ability to thrash competitors nearly twice his age was a sight to behold. This account of his journey to the gold, told in the style of 16 Days of Glory, details his complete 2016 Olympic tournament as well as the barriers he faces in a sport as old as the Acropolis though not well known in the U.S.  Also a potential future MMA star, Snyder will likely reappear on the Olympic stage, so this story of his first Games will illustrate why he could be one to watch for years to come.
