The last time Bo Nickal took on Ohio State’s Myles Martin in the NCAA finals was two years ago in New York.
Martin came out on top that year.
“I think about that match every day almost,” Nickal said. “It’s something that sticks in my mind. One of my goals was to be a four-time national champion coming to Penn State. So not being able to accomplish that, it hurts.”
Saturday night was a different story.
The duo started with a flurry of action. At one point, Nickal almost came off the raised mat trying to escape a Martin shot attempt.
