The 2023 NCAA Wrestling Championships in Tulsa brought the fire!

Congratulations to all qualifiers, All-Americans, and champions who performed at this year's premier national tournament.

There were many upsets throughout the three days, but no bigger than Purdue's Matt Ramos' epic win and pin over three-time NCAA champion Spencer Lee of Iowa.

Penn State won the team title and had two individual NCAA champions.

Cornell also had two wrestlers bring home titles, including Vito Arujau and Yianni Diakomihalis who became the fifth four-time NCAA champion since 1928.

Northern Colorado finally got their first NCAA wrestling champion when Andrew Alirez picked up a title at 141 pounds.

Why do KOT and Starocci both look bigger than Brooks?

AOC take off early?

Yianni’s arms are so dang long

 

KOT is so tall. 
 

Aaron Brooks is so short. I wonder if that will play a factor in his international career.

Brooks looks like he could have faced Alirez in the finals.

Yianni and Vito both can tie their shoes without bending over.  Something in that Ithaca water...

[gromit]

this makes me doubt Brooks will be big enough to bump to 197 next year

Loving the entries by Princeton and Northern Colorado. Good for wrestling.

Yeah, 3 Ivy League wrestlers as champs.  Reminds you what the sport missed when the Ivy League opted out of their Covid year.
