Getting off the MAT –
February 11, 2019 – A decade ago, had you looked at Winn, it would have been hard to say his life was less than perfect. Winn said he was the valedictorian at his high school and captain of the wrestling team, which had a state championship. “I had a full ride to Duke to wrestle,” Winn said. But then, shortly into his first semester at Duke, things took a turn. “I had fallen in the wrong crowd,” he explained. “I was looking around at people who looked like they had everything I thought I wanted. They had the popularity. I thought if I want what they have, I have to do what they’re doing.”
