Janiyah Johnson of Tennessee and Sarah Pulk of Minnesota, two of the youngest competitors at Who's Number One, will face-off at 155-pounds.
Johnson was unranked coming into Fargo this season, but defeated all challengers in the 16U 155lb bracket, including the second highest ranked returning high schooler Sarah Pulk. Now with a Fargo stop sign in her trophy case, she’ll head to Johnston, PA to try and add a WNO crown to her collection of accolades.
Watch Johnson win a 16U National Championship over Jayci Shelton:
Pulk, a 2014 U17 World Team Trials runner-up, will get a shot at redemption in Johnstown. Pulk wrestles for Greenbush-Middle River High School. and was a U16 World Team Trials runner-up before she placed third at Fargo in the 16U division.
Watch Pulk defeat the highly-ranked Skylar Slade at Women's Nationals last April:
Both wrestlers are just getting started in their respective careers. Pulk is still just 15 years old and is one of the youngest competitors at Who's Number One. 14-year-old Johnson on the other hand is the youngest athlete at WNO and will be a sophomore at Kirkwood High School in Tennesee, a state not known for wrestling, but that's changing with wrestlers like Johnson advancing through national rankings.
