It was another tough evening on Saturday for the Northwestern wrestling squad, taking on Indiana and third-ranked Penn State at home in their second straight tri-dual of the season. Although able to keep it close against Indiana, the ‘Cats dropped both duals to move to 1-4 on the young season, but still had a handful of performances to be hopeful about.
Taking the mat for the first time at home this season, NU was a week removed from its first dual win of the season over Maryland, a win that came on the same evening as a difficult loss to a top-10 Nebraska squad.
