Wrestling: Robb Set For U23 Worlds; Labriola Late Scratch

Those plans have changed, as Labriola was pulled from the lineup late and replaced by Princeton’s Jake Marsh. Marsh finished eighth at the 2021 U23 Nationals that Labriola won. My only guess would be that Marsh was a training partner along for the trip and is being forced into action at the latest possible time.
