Kara & Jeff are the owners of @ColoradoCraftBeef and their family has been ranching northeast Colorado for five generations. We can't wait to visit the ranch and rustle up some cows and wrestle with some cowboys. Other than Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone's place this might be the only ranch with jiu jitsu mats. Colorado Craft Beef is providing all of the steaks and ribs for Origin Immersion Camp this year.

Jared Fekete @feketejj is a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and an elite wrestler. He owns Sleeping Bear Jiu-Jitsu in Traverse City, Michigan and competes regularly around the midwest. He has an explosive style which he put on display in the 16-man 185 pound bracket at Midwest Finishers 19. Huge thanks to Omar Ocasio @omarocasio10p who runs Midwest Finishers and is the owner of 10th Planet Lombard. The winner of the bracket takes home $2,500 and the whole tournament is streamed LIVE on YouTube. Definitely worth watching just to see Kevin Beuhring's insane leg breaking skills. The sound of the break is haunting.
