Tofurky 596 Report post Posted August 16, 2016 Given the nation's financial situation, is it a matter resources that keeps them from consistently sending teams to international events? Since 2010, when Chamizo was their lone rep at Freestyle Junior Worlds, they've competed in only Pan-Ams in 2012 (5), '15 (8) and '16 (2), the number of reps in parentheses. Their Greco team made the same Pan-Ams as Freestyle with two, eight and three reps, respectively, but didn't compete in anything since 2009 Worlds.
