Mitchell Mesenbrink made it 2 for 2 for champions this evening after an 8-2 victory over Iowaโs Mikey Caliendo on Saturday night.
Mesenbrink gave credit to coach Cael Sanderson, his high school coach and father John Mesenbrink, and former Missouri great Ben Askren on getting him to this point. Mesenbrink trained at the Askren Wrestling Academy.
โLike Nick Lee said after his first championship, itโs chop wood, carry water,โ Mitchell told ESPN. โThatโs what itโs going to be about. Just keep on getting better.
โProcess over outcome. Keep on getting better. Thatโs what this is all about.โ
Penn State now has 177 points in its record-breaking performance for the weekend with Josh Barr still to wrestle tonight.
