Lee Kemp is one of the greatest wrestlers in American history. Before a legendary college and international career, he found wrestling as a ninth grader in Chardon, Ohio. He won three NCAA titles for Wisconsin (1976-78), reaching the finals four straight years (1975-78). Kemp became the first U.S. wrestler to win three World titles (1978-79, '82) but faced heartache when the United States boycotted the 1980 Moscow Olympics due to the Soviet Union's invasion of Afghanistan.
