Here's to hoping the 2024 US Men's FS Olympic Team is fielded by 6 Nittany Lion Wrestling Club wrestlers!!
 
Consolation rounds? I wouldn’t have thought they existed.
 
How do you get the quad box option? I signed into Peacock this am and they only show a selection of mats 1 through 4 but no quad box.

Go into the app and go to sports. It should be the 1st box listed in front of the individual mat boxes.
