Lee became the school's second two-time national champion in wrestling in 2005, capping off a tremendous senior season that saw him earn Ivy League Wrestler of the Year honors for the second time. Lee also became the first Ivy wrestler to earn All-America honors four times and became the all-time Cornell and Ivy League leader in wins with 143. Lee won Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association (EIWA) titles all four years and was named the tournament's Most Outstanding Wrestler twice. He posted an unbeaten season en route to a national title at 125 pounds as a sophomore, and then recorded a 37-1 record as a senior, avenging his only loss of the year in the NCAA finals at 133 pounds to capture the 2005 title. He played a major role in the Big Red's fourth-place team finish that year at the NCAA championships, its highest finish in 52 years. The finish was also the second highest in both school and Ivy League history at the NCAA championships.
