It started with 48 teams and over 1000 wrestlers stretched across the Lansing Center floor.   The Lansing City Mayor came in to help kick the event off.

5 rounds of pool competition and 3 bracket rounds later not only was the Grand River Rumble trending on twitter from all the video clips we were posting on @michgrappler, but it was also clear that Ohio Mafia was pretty darn good.

Blake Saito (108), Jordan Crace (117), Mitch Moore (138), Mario Guillen (145), Connor Brady/Joey Sanchez (155), Johnny Schaefer (220), and Matt Adams (297) led the Mafia to being unbeated in 7 weight classes on the day!  

The Mafia stormed through their pool shutting out 4 of 5 teams they wrestled and losing one individual match through pool play.  In the Gold Bracket, more of the same.   Mafia won 52-6 over Michigan Weset, then 37-9 over a loaded Indiana Outlaw team before downing Rampage (MI) Red in the finals 48-9.

In all, Ohio Mafia lost 8 individual matches on the day out of 104 total matches wrestled.
