The first five-time Division I champion shared his win – and the contents of his mat-side conversation with the president – with Fox News Monday.

“When I heard he was coming, I kind of figured I was going to go over there and say a few words to my man because I met him before, so having him in the house is always special,” he told “Fox & Friends.”

Starocci defeated Northern Iowa’s Parker Keckeisen, 4-3, to win the 184-pound championship and his fifth NCAA title, the first and possibly last time the feat is ever achieved due to athletes receiving an extra year of eligibility from COVID.

Shortly after the match, he approached Trump, shook his hand and snapped a photo with him as he toted his trophy.
