    Bo (Bassett) Knows "No Limits"

    High school wrestling phenom, Bo Bassett, is one of the best young wrestlers in the USA, and in the world. However, despite his success in the Square Circle, he doesn't let his talent go to his head. He is very well-rounded as a Young Man, filled with respect for others in a deep humility. He finds what he needs the most through God, his family, teammates, and his wrestling community. This is one of my favorite podcast interviews to date !
