...kinder and gentler era. Where once the university quadrangles resounded with the tipsy warbling of De Brevitate Vitae or other commercium songs, now only the echoes of mass-market electronic recordings disturb the silence of Saturday evenings. Beer pong has replaced banter, courtship has yielded to hook-ups, pot is preferred to pipe tobacco. The choice of drink, and the style in which it is quaffed, is likewise illustrative: watery beer or cheap liquor, impurities masked by the syrupy sweetness of sodas and juices, downed in furtive binges.

...Binghamton with a population of about 4,000, the standout first hit the mats at the tender age of seven. “I’m a first generation wrestler,” O’Connor reflects. Rather than the classic sports-beginnings story of the pot-bellied uncle with the flimsy baseball cap living vicariously through his bony nephew by tossing him in some peewee league before he can read, O’Connor actually got into wrestling another way.
