One year ago, to the date, Jason Renteria was a high school senior watching the NCAA wrestling tournament at the Scott Trade Center in St. Louis.
The 133-pound Husker wrestler is having a much different experience this season heading into the tournament in Cleveland.
“It’s just dreams coming true, I remember watching this last year and just wanting to be a part of it,” Renteria said, “I’m just trying to be better, and maybe be the next four-time national champ.”
Those are not small words from Renteria, who is 8-4 on the year and unranked coming into the tournament.
