Brooks, of Penn State, and Carr, from Iowa State, each had white bands over their heads with a message: "100% Jesus."

Brooks, along with his Nittany Lions teammate Carter Starocci, became four-time NCAA champions on Saturday night. They joined an exclusive club of four-time winners, which also included their coach Cael Sanderson. Brooks beat longtime rival Trent Hidlay, of N.C. State.
Carr also won a national championship at 165 pounds. He needed a valiant effort to stymie Penn State’s Mitchell Mesenbrink’s comeback attempt – and he did just that.
Both wrestlers drew attention for proclaiming their faith on the national stage.

"It might be boring – it’s the truth, It’s the Lord, the Holy Spirit," Brooks said after being asked what was going through his mind after winning a title. "It keeps me calm. It keeps me poised, but I remember it’s bigger than this.
"These four titles come and go, His word remains forever."
Carr talked about God in his post-match press conference with reporters.
"Like always, all glory to God," he started the post-match press conference. "I prayed before the match, ‘Give me unlimited energy and focus.’ And when I was out there, I just kept telling myself just focus and keep wrestling hard.
"And it feels awesome to end my career on top."
