Kyven Gadson has an interesting life story.
Gadson’s father Willie, who died of cancer in 2013, was a two-time Big Eight Conference champion wrestler for Iowa State. Kyven followed in his father’s footsteps, and as of Saturday, the Cyclones senior is the NCAA champion for the 197-pound weight class.
So with all of the emotion and family history, how did it feel for Gadson to pin Ohio State’s Kyle Snyder using his signature move, “The Gadson,” in that final match?
After all the hard work he put in to making weight and winning the NCAA championship, it’s safe to say the guy really does deserve some ice cream.
Gadson’s full interview is worth a watch. Check it out below.
