The Huskers escaped the desert with a team win but still took a couple lumps by some of their best guys early in their dual with #19 Arizona State.
For #3 Nebraska, things started slow most of the day with six matches scoreless in the first period, but thanks to a solid set of upper weights was able to get the 26-9 dual win, improving to 12-2 on the year.

Despite losses by Caleb Smith at 125 and Ridge Lovett at 149, Nebraska won all five matches after the intermission to put the dual away, showing these Huskers are a legitimate top team.
