Episode 39 of Bonus Points features two-time U.S. Olympic Team
member in Greco-Roman wrestling Ben Provisor.
Provisor won the 85 kg division at the 2016 U.S. Olympic Team
Trials held in Iowa City, Iowa on April 9 to make his
second-straight Olympic Team.
To claim top prize at the U.S. Olympic Team Trials, Provisor won
bouts over Patrick Martinez, Jordan Holm and Jake Clark, all of
whom were past U.S. World Team members.
Since wrestling in the 2012 Olympic Games held in London, England,
Provisor has battled a steady stream of injuries, became a father
and continued to strive for his goal of returning to Olympic
competition.
Topics of discussion include his Olympic Trials run, what he
expects in his repeat Olympic bid, his life journey on and off the
wrestling mat and much more.
