Although wrestling season is over, this is great to see from a Buckeye.

Sr Kyle Snyder was in the finals for the 2016 Olympic Trials in the 97kg winner take all match against 2012 Olympic Gold Medalist, Jake Varner. Snyder was defeated in the first bout, but dominated the next two, 4-0 and 6-1. This means that Snyder has punched his ticket to the Olympic Games this Summer in Rio, and has to be the favorite to take home the gold!
