What a great night with Beat the Streets Chicago at the 2025 NCAA Men's Wrestling Championship watch party!! History was made as Carter Starocci won an unprecedented 5th title, moving up a weight class and beating the defending National Champion. Penn State won their 4th consecutive team championship, 12th in the last 14 years. The night was capped with an epic upset by Wyatt Hendrickson aka "Captain America" as he upset two-time NCAA Champion and reigning Olympic Gold Medalist Gable Steveson with a takedown late in the third period. He attributed his victory to divine intervention, comparing his triumph to the biblical tale of David and Goliath. ?
