We began at Noon ET with 170 fights between the best 330 collegiate wrestlers in the country. By the end of this round, 90 of those wrestlers will be eliminated, with no need to wake up and weigh-in tomorrow morning.
The blood, guts, and tears come quickly in this sport. Welcome to Session Two.

Not a great start for our heroes. Corey worked for a cradle that backfired on him, and got pinned. Nick Lee went a little too fast and too loose, and got pancaked. Zain woke us from our nightmare, and the rest of the boys chipped in with bonus point wins.
