James Green Wins Senior National Title

The Huskers were led by a familiar face in five-time World Team member and two-time World medalist James Green, who went 5-0 on his way to a Senior Freestyle National Championship at 70kg over the weekend.

Nebraska had 13 wrestlers competing at the 2021 Senior and Junior Nationals over the weekend at the Xtrema Arena in Coralville, Iowa. Green led the way at the Senior level, while Tyler Berger finished fourth at 70kg. Senior Christian Lance took fifth at 125kg to earn a spot at the World Team Trials in early September. The top-5 finishers at the senior level advance to the World Team Trials, while the Junior champs from this weekend will represent Team USA at the World Championships.
