Awesome News!!

Sean pinned in the 2nd period.

Sean having a great year thus far for the Wolfpack. Wrestling at 125lb Sean recently beat the #3 wrestler in the nation at a Dual Match in Naples, Italy. Looking forward to a strong finish from Sean this year....he has a very good chance to finish as an All-American.

Just curious, what is the criteria to be considered All American ? I hope Sean attains that status, just didn't know what the standards were

I believe it is based on how you finish at Nationals.
