Star Brazilian Jiu Jitsu -- Carrollton, Texas

Otomi is a three-person team grappling tournament. One athlete from each team competes at a time. The winner stays on the mat, and the opposing team sends in their next athlete. The team that eliminates their opponent's full lineup advances to the next round.

This is not just three teammates competing in their own brackets. Each teammate's results directly impact their entire team; order, strengths, fatigue, strategy, and style matchups all matter.
