The Huskers have one of the most impressive fields of former wrestlers competing at this weekend’s US Olympic Wrestling Trials in State College, Penn.
Sitting just behind Penn State’s ridiculous list of 17 current, former or future wrestlers competing at Olympic Trials, Nebraska has the second most in the field with six. Cornell also had six wrestlers qualify, but 2023 World Champion Vito Arujau will not be competing. Iowa, Missouri, Oklahoma State and Ohio State all have four wrestlers with ties to them in the field.
Nebraska will be led by the familiar duo of Jordan Burroughs at 74kg and James Green at 65kg.
