Wisconsin Badgers Wrestling MAN OF THE MAT vs. No. 11 Minnesota

The intent of this prestigious, almost Hodge-like, award is to highlight a wrestler from the Wisconsin Badgers Wrestling team that had the most outstanding performance from the event.

JUNKYARD JOE WITH THE UPSET!

He came out on fire looking to score! I am a broken record at this point – but when Joseph Zargo wrestles like that he’s so incredibly hard to beat.

Joe Zargo handles his business at 149 for @BadgerWrestling!
