In the University of Wisconsin wrestling team’s (11-5, 4-5 Big Ten) last Big Ten dual of the year, they welcomed the No. 17 Michigan Wolverines (6-6, 5-4) to the UW Field House. The Badgers were looking to bounce back after dropping an upset to unranked Michigan State last Sunday.
After Eric Barnett lost an 8–3 decision at 125 to open the dual, No. 1 Seth Gross got the Badgers back on track. Gross picked up an 18–0 tech fall, which is the largest difference in score possible in an NCAA wrestling match.
