QUAD-CITY TIMES — There were days at the end of his high school wrestling career that Rock Island graduate Tyree Overton thought his days on the mat were over.
An injury his senior year kept Overton from making it to the Illinois High School Association state finals and he had very little interest from colleges around the nation.
Overton is sure glad he didn’t give up.
Midway through his redshirt senior season at St. Cloud State, Overton is en route to wrapping up a stellar college wrestling career.
