Below are the questions I asked the Champ!  

What is it like being a teammate to your only high school loss and how has that loss helped or affected your wrestling  

I read that you will not take an Olympic red shirt year, so with them pushed back a year does that change any of your preparation?  

What is it like wrestling at Iowa and for the Brands Brothers?  

What has Jody Strittmatter at Young Guns meant to you and your career so far?

What does it mean to do these virtual training sessions with all these young men and women around the country?

What does it mean to you to receive the Sullivan and The Hodge awards?

What will it mean to you to win a Gold Medal for the USA?  

Is it true the Team messes with you about your girlfriend being taller than you?

What was the feeling of defeating Suriano and winning your first of two titles?

What has wrestling meant in your life and what would you tell young kids out there that want to be the next Spencer Lee?  

How far has Pat Lugo come? In your opinion do you think Pat would’ve won the NCAA title this year? Tell us you favorite Pat Lugo story?
