We are back from an unforgettable weekend at the Minnesota State High School League State Wrestling Tournament, and this episode is all about reliving the best moments. We share our experiences both matside and inside the NSPN streaming booth, where we helped bring wall‑to‑wall coverage of every match to fans across the state.
We break down the matches and teams that stood out, the storylines that defined the weekend, and the moments that will stick with us long after the lights at Grand Casino Arena fade.
A mix of reflection, analysis, and the kind of storytelling that makes the state tournament special every single year.
