David Taylor (born December 5, 1990) is an American freestyle wrestler and former folk libertarian wrestler. WIN Magazine twice awarded Taylor the Dan Hodge Trophy as the best folk wrestler in college wrestling.

Taylor lived in several states before spending most of her youth in Wyoming and Ohio. In his youth, he admired world and Olympic champion Cael Sanderson, from the state of Utah near that. 

Taylor competed for the wrestling team at Pennsylvania State University, where Cael Sanderson served as head coach. During his first year, Taylor did not officially play. During Taylor's freshman and senior season, he finished as NCAA Division I  national runner-up, and in the second and final year season, he finished as champion. WIN Magazine has recognized his two championship seasons as the best performances in college wrestling, making him only the fourth wrestler to win the title twice or more.
