McCauley captured a FILA Junior Nationals freestyle title at 66 kg/145.5 lbs. on Saturday in Madison, Wis.

McCauley beat 2011 Junior Nationals champion Jason Tsirtsis in the semifinals before pinning NCAA All-American Hunter Stieber of Ohio State in the finals.

McCauley, an Iowa State recruit, won a Junior Nationals freestyle title in 2010. He is a resident-athlete at the U.S. Olympic Training Center.

McCauley was a five-time Minnesota state champion in high school.
