Congratulations Adrian Artisheuskiy🤼🥇❗

𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐒𝐈𝐒𝐇𝐄𝐔𝐒𝐊𝐈𝐘 𝐑𝐄𝐏𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐒 𝐀𝐒 𝐔𝟐𝟑 𝐏𝐀𝐍-𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐂𝐀𝐍 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐌𝐏!!

On the ultimate day of competition in Lima, Peru; it was NY's own 𝑨𝒅𝒓𝒊𝒂𝒏 𝑨𝒓𝒕𝒔𝒊𝒔𝒉𝒆𝒖𝒔𝒌𝒊𝒚 posting a 4-0 overall record to repeat as the 82kg Greco-Roman titlist at the Under-23 Pan-American Championships!!

Currently on quite the "heater" in preparation for his Under-23 World Championship berth this coming October; the Elite Wrestling Academy pupil's gold medal today comes on the heels of a Top-3 showing at the U.S. Senior Open and a hardware-hoisting effort at the U23 Nationals!!!

His finals bout on Saturday being a rematch of a head-to-head showdown that he previously won 9-0 during pool-play against Mexico's 𝐇𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐀𝐧𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐢 𝐘𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐚 𝐁𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐨; the completion of the sweep did not materialize nearly as easily!!!

Trailing 2-0 (only points he allowed all tournament; 31-2 margin) at the break after allowing a 1st periof takedown...

Artsisheuskiy would rally for a 6-0 run during the last 3:00, including a caution +1 for passivity and a pair of 2pt gut-wrenches in the closing 64 seconds of regulation to seize the 6-2 decision versus Saldana Bernardino (2025 U17 World Team Member; 3x Pan-American Age-Group Medalist/2x Runner-up)!!!

His comeback in the finale being the only occasion in which Adrian saw the 2nd period in any of his outings; in addition to the already referenced 9-0 superiority [over Saldana Bernardino] to clinch the top spot in the pool; he'd also bank respectively 8-0 TFs at the expense of Panama'a 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐞𝐥 𝐁𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐧 and 𝐌𝐚𝐲𝐜𝐤𝐢 𝐄𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐳𝐨𝐧 𝐅𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐬 𝐀𝐲𝐚𝐥𝐚, of Peru!!!

Already leading Brown (2025 Pan-American Games 5th; 025 Central American and Caribbean Games Runner-up), 4-0, in his kickoff appearance after scoring 2+2 on a Takedown + gut during the initial 1:00 of action; the 2021 Journeymen State Bronze Medalist out of Midwood put the bout to bed when he struck for a 4-point dump at the 2:43 mark!!

Getting off to another quick start in the first of his two meetings with Saldana Bernardino; Artsisheuskiy utilized a 2-on-1 throw-by for the TD and then added a 2pt gut to jump out to a 4-0 advantage less than half-a-minute in the opening period....

Later awarded a caution +1 for passivity with 1:19 remaining in the stanza, he converted another 2pt gut before tacking on a 2pt lift on the continuation of the sequence to get off the mat in a time of 1:57!

His quickest victory occurred in the crossover semifinals, as he needed just 27 ticks to explode for consecutive 4-pointers (body lock throw complemented by a belly-to-belly surplex) to topple Flores Ayala (2025 Double Pan-American Age-group runner-up)...

The only thing that saved Flores Ayala from surrendering the pin would be that officials ruled that he was out of bound before the American could cinch in his power-half after his aforementioned second toss!

Responsible for collecting the third of the Red, White, and Blue GR contingent's SIX TOTAL individual crowns in the Greco discipline; the Gotham native was joined on the top step by 𝐊𝐞𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐭𝐡 𝐂𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐛𝐲 (55kg), 𝐏𝐢𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞 (63kg), 𝐊𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐧 𝐖𝐲𝐚𝐭𝐭 (87kg), 𝐒𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐧 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐳𝐨𝐠 (97kg), & 𝐀𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐀𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐨 (130kg)!!!

Eight of 10 team representatives securing a medal of any color; it was 𝐌𝐚𝐱 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐤 and 𝐃𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐖𝐚𝐲 each picking up silver at 60kg and 72kg to do their part in vaulting the United States' atop the team standings!
