Leen, a three-time All-American, won an NCAA title at 157 pounds as a junior in 2008. The four-time NCAA qualifier wrapped up his impressive wrestling career for the Big Red with a 118-29 mark that ranked him sixth in the Cornell record books for career wins. He was selected to receive the team's Andy Noel Leadership Award after captaining the Big Red to two top 10 NCAA finishes in his final two seasons. As a junior, Leen was the lowest seeded wrestler to advance to the finals as a No. 8 seed, winning the national title at 157 pounds with a 5-4 win over No. 2 ranked Mike Poeta of Illinois. He also took third at nationals as a senior and was eighth at 149 pounds as a sophomore. Leen finished his career as a three-time first-team All-Ivy honoree with a perfect 17-0 mark against conference opponents and won EIWA crowns at 149 pounds in 2007 and at 157 pounds in 2009. He wrestled in the 2007 NWCA All-Star Classic at 157 pounds, earning a win by fall.
