Husker Wrestling Announces Schedule

The Nebraska wrestling team will face a challenging schedule which features duals against four of the top-five team finishers from last year’s NCAA Championships, and eight of the top-25 finishers overall, Head Coach Mark Manning announced on Thursday.  The Huskers kick off the season with their annual Coaches Clinic followed by the Nebraska Duals on Nov. 7 before heading to the Northeast Duals in Troy, N.Y. on Nov. 10 to compete in a round-robin format with different teams. The Huskers then participate in the Daktronics Open in Brookings, S.D. on Nov. 17. 

Wyoming comes to Lincoln on Nov. 22 looking to avenge a 22-12 loss to the Huskers last season. The Big Red then hit the road to take on Northern Iowa in Cedar Falls, Iowa, on Nov. 24. The Panthers are coming off a 13th-place finish at the 2019 NCAA Championships.  After NU competes in the Cliff Keen Las Vegas Collegiate Wrestling Invitational in Las Vegas, Nev., Dec. 6-7, the Huskers return to Lincoln on Dec. 20 to face Oregon State, who finished in the top 20 at the 2019 NCAA Championships.   Big Ten dual action kicks off after the holiday break on Jan. 12 when Nebraska travels to Madison, Wisc., to take on the Wisconsin Badgers. The Huskers will be back on the road less than a week later to face the Iowa Hawkeyes in Iowa City, Iowa, on Jan. 18. Iowa took fourth at the 2019 NCAA Championships. NU then has three consecutive home matches against Big Ten competition.  Rest of the story at https://huskers.com/news/2019/9/5/husker-wrestling-announces-schedule.aspx?mc_cid=41b415c641&mc_eid=2ef7cbca4b
