George Nicholas Mehnert (November 3, 1881 – July 8, 1948) was an American wrestler who competed in the 1904 Summer Olympics and 1908 Summer Olympics, winning the gold medal at both Olympics.[1]

At the 1904 Olympics, he won a gold medal in flyweight category. Four years later at the 1908 Olympics, he won a gold medal in freestyle bantamweight category. By winning the gold medal in 1908, Mehnert became the first American to win two Olympic gold medals in wrestling.[2]

In 1976, Mehnert was inducted into the inaugural class of the National Wrestling Hall of Fame as a Distinguished Member.[3]
