Big Ten Wrestling Championships Preview

The Big Ten Wrestling Championships are finally here, and the Huskers look to pick up where they left off last year when they earned their best team finish since joining the Big Ten. Nebraska finished second with 132 points while Iowa won the team title with 157.5 points. The Huskers beat No. 3 Ohio State pretty soundly as the Buckeyes scored 112 points.

The Huskers will compete in the 2021 Big Ten Championships Saturday and Sunday. The tournament is being hosted by Penn State with the action taking place in the Bryce Jordan Center.

The Team Race

This year, it’s again the top-ranked Hawkeyes (5-0) who are the prohibitive favorites to win the team title, but there is a trio of teams jockeying for second.
