According to a post on the Osbourn Park Wrestling twitter site 12 hours ago, Cooper was moved to ICU and had 2 fractured vertebrae in the neck but no permanent damage. A post 2 hours ago stated Nick was medically sedated and was scheduled for more testing today.

The Osbourn Park wrestling community is requesting prayers for Nick, his family and friends and the Osbourn Park wrestling team.
