Almost every interview or press conference, Jason Nolf talks about "having fun" and "scoring points," which seems to pretty well define his mat presence. He averaged over 16 a match at the 2017 NCAA tournament to take home his first national title.

Want to re-live that plethora of points? Enjoy below.


Round of 32: Jason Nolf tech Thomas Bullard (NC State), 22-7 in 7:00

The true freshman Bullard went the distance with Nolf, but still ended up getting teched. WATCH MATCH

Round of 16: Jason Nolf tech Victor Lopez (Bucknell), 24-9 in 7:00

When he puts up 46 points in his first two matches, you start to wonder if Nolf will have an NCAAs in which he throws up over 100 points. WATCH MATCH

Quarterfinal: Jason Nolf pins Bryant Clagon (Rider) in 4:07

Clagon was the closest match for Zain Retherford last season and was very close to becoming a two-time All American. WATCH MATCH

Semifinal: Jason Nolf major Tyler Berger (Nebraska), 13-5

Nolf's last folkstyle loss before IMar was Berger, but he has very much widened the gap since then.



Finals: Jason Nolf major Joey Lavallee (Missouri), 14-6

We knew the finals was going to be fun once the Lavallee/Palacio semi was set. Check out the behind-the-back single below.
