Former Olympic wresting gold medalist Kyle Snyder pleaded guilty Monday to a lesser charge of disorderly conduct after being arrested in a prostitution sting .
Snyder, one of the most successful wrestlers in U.S. history, initially was charged with engaging in prostitution after he was arrested on May 9 at a motel in Columbus, Ohio.
A judge ordered Snyder, 29, to pay a 250 fine. Snyder said he has already completed a one-day program for people accused of solicitation.
Snyder, who appeared at the hearing by video, said he has learned a lot about himself and that he "plans on making much better decisions."
"I learned about the impact these decisions have on not just my family but the community," he said.
