Two of the youngest competitors at Who's Number One, Janiyah Johnson of Tennessee and Sarah Pulk of Minnesota, will face-off at 155 pounds.
Though she entered the National Championships unranked, Janiyah Johnson defeated all challengers in the 16U 155lb, including the second-highest ranked returning high schooler Sarah Pulk, and left Fargo as the top challenger to the #1 ranking.
Now with a Fargo stop sign in her trophy case, Johnson will head to Johnstown, PA to try and add a WNO crown to her collection of accolades.
Watch Johnson win a 16U National Championship over Jayci Shelton:
Sarah Pulk, a 2024 U17 World Team Trials runner-up, will get a shot at redemption in Johnstown. Pulk wrestles for Greenbush-Middle River High School. Pulk also placed third in Fargo in the 16U division last July.
Watch Pulk defeat the highly-ranked Skylar Slade at Women's Nationals last April:
Both wrestlers are just getting started in their respective careers. Johnson, a sophomore at Kirkwood High School, is just 14 years old, one of the youngest wrestlers at the event. Pulk also has one of the latest birthdates of the WNO competitors and is still only 15 years old.
