Wrestling: 'Grapple at the Garden' early test for Huskers

A preview of Madison Square Garden and the site of the NCAA wrestling championships might serve Nebraska well in a few months.

Sunday, the No. 5 Huskers, with all 10 wrestlers ranked in the top 15 of their weight classes, will face seventh-ranked Cornell at 9 a.m. and Princeton at 11 as part of the "Grapple at the Garden" in New York City.

"This will be good for us because we get good competition and a good look at the place where the NCAA championships are going to be held in March," said NU coach Mark Manning.
