Burroughs and Green, a pair of former Nebraska wrestling greats, will be on hand for a send-off party Friday in advance of their trip to Budapest, Hungary, for the World Championships later this month. The celebration is set for 6 p.m. at The Mill Coffee & Bistro on Innovation Campus near the Devaney Sports Center.
Manning, the Husker wrestling coach, said there will be food, T-shirts for sale and an auction.
Burroughs is a four-time world champion (2011, 2013, 2015 and 2017) and, of course, an Olympic champion in 2012.
Green won the silver medal at the World Championships in 2017 after capturing the bronze in 2015.
