    Jordan Jento is a sophomore and a member of the wrestling team.

    Jento’s favorite part of wrestling is pinning someone.

    “Hearing the ref slap the mat when you pin someone is a great feeling,” Jento said.

    As a way to stay in shape during the off season, Jento runs five miles a day.

    On the mat, Jento prepares by listening to music.  “I close my eyes and picture myself winning.”

    This season Jento has his sights on the PowerAde Tournament as well as the Gateway Tournament.

    Another source of inspiration for Jento comes from a family member.

    “I look up to my cousin Cary Kolat.”

    With Lesko in the corner Jento knows he will be his best.
