Proving that he is a force to be reckoned with and in his first visit to the wrestling World Championships, Jake Herbert came away with a silver medal.

“It stinks, having to stand on the podium with a silver medal. I came in here to win a gold medal and I believed I could do it,” Herbert said. “Seeing that other guy’s flag go up and hearing that other guy’s anthem being played, and then seeing him get a World Championships belt, that gives me something to shoot for next year. I didn’t know the champion got a belt. I want that belt.”
