Adeline Gray, a decorated American freestyle wrestler, became a World Champion in 2012 in the 67kg category, quickly establishing herself as a dominant force in the sport. This initial triumph was swiftly followed by a World Championship Bronze medal in 2013 (72kg) and consecutive World Championship gold medals in 2014 and 2015, both in the 75kg category. Her consistent high performance also earned her a gold medal at the 2015 Pan American Games (75kg) and marked her debut as an Olympian, competing in the 75kg category at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games. Continuing her unparalleled trajectory, Gray secured another Pan American Championship title in 2018 (76kg) and her fourth World Championship gold medal the same year (76kg).
Beyond her competitive career, she serves as an assistant women’s wrestling coach for Wyoming Seminary, and actively advocates for women’s wrestling, promoting equal recognition and inspiring many through her dedication to balancing her elite athletic career with motherhood.
