A four-time All-American wrestling for Penn State, Joseph won NCAA titles as a first-year (2017) and a sophomore (2018) before finishing as the national runner-up as a junior in 2019. Joseph was a first-team NWCA All-American as a senior. He was slated to be the No. 2 seed at the 2020 NCAA Championships when the tournament was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Joseph’s an 89-9 overall record with 25 falls in his Penn State career.

On the freestyle circuit, Joseph is a two-time U.S. Open runner-up and was the World Team Trials runner-up in 2022.
