QUICK NOTES• Nebraska has outscored its five dual opponents by a combined score of 111-73• Nebraska has won 31 of 50 individual matches in dual competition• Two starters have perfect 5-0 dual records to start the season. Returning All-Americans Tyler Berger (157) and Taylor Venz (184) have combined to start the season 10-0 with 38 dual points between them. • Sophomore Patrick Grayson took a 5-2 decision over the No. 13 ranked heavyweight wrestler in the country in Joey Goodhart (Drexel) at the Northeast Duals. Grayson has won two of his three duals this season.• Collin Purinton and Jordan Shearer are a combined 5-0 in duals at 149-pounds this season. Coming into the season, 149 had been a concern, but these two have been excellent.• After transferring from WVU, Zeke Moisey (125) won his Huskers debut at the Northeast Duals and took an injury default victory over #17 Connor Brown (Wis.) on Nov. 16. However, he was upset by Wyoming’s Cole Verner on Nov. 18, suffering his first loss of the season. He will look to respond this weekend in a difficult 125-pound bracket.• Labriola (174) leads the team with three wins by tech. fall and seven victories overall.

NEBRASKA’S HISTORY AT THE CLIFF KEEN INVITATIONAL• Nebraska has competed at the Las Vegas Invitational a total of 23 times, finishing first in both 2003 and 2008. NU has also finished in second place five times, in 1992, 1995, 2000, 2004 and 2013.• Last Time at the Cliff Keen Invitational: Dec. 1-2, 2017 (Las Vegas, Nev.)• Five of the ten Huskers who competed placed in the top six of their weight class. Isaiah White (165) and Taylor Venz (184) placed third, each going 6-1 during the two-day tournament.• Senior Tyler Berger (157) placed fourth. He went 5-2 with one major decision and three sudden victory decisions. Both of his losses came to top 15 ranked opponents.• Sophomore Chad Red Jr. (141) also placed fourth and finished with a 5-2 record. Graduated senior Colton McCrystal (149) went 3-1 on his way to a sixth-place finish.• Red Jr. (#7), McCrystal (#5), Berger (#4) and White (#11) were the four ranked NU wrestlers to compete.

FOUR RETURNING ALL-AMERICANS LOOK TO MAKE WAVES• Nebraska returns five starters in 2018-19 who competed at last year’s NCAA Championships. Throw in Zeke Moisey (125), a West Virginia transfer and two-time All-American, and the Huskers have legitimate reason to believe that over half the team’s starters have an excellent chance to go to nationals once again. • Moisey, Chad Red Jr. (141), Tyler Berger (157), Isaiah White (165) and Taylor Venz (184) did not travel to the Daktronics Open Nov. 4, but all competed at the Northeast Duals. Berger, Moisey, Red Jr. and Venz were each named All-Americans after finishing in the top 8 of their weight classes at the 2018 NCAA Championships.• Moisey went 26-11 at WVU last season before placing eighth at the 2018 NCAA Championships. Red Jr. had an identical 26-11 mark in 2018-19 before going 5-2 at the NCAA Championships to earn a seventh-place finish. Berger, who sits just seven wins away from his 100th win as a Husker, went 28-9 a season ago and placed third at the NCAA Championships. • A transfer from Division II Notre Dame College, Isaiah White (165) entered his second year as a Husker in 2018-19. He qualified for nationals after accumulating a 25-8 record last season, but fell short of All-America status, losing in the Round of 12. • Taylor Venz (184), a redshirt sophomore from Farmington, Minn., finished fourth at the 2018 NCAA Championships. He also competed in the NWCA All-Star Classic on Nov. 2, defeating Cornell’s Max Dean in a rematch from last year’s bout at nationals.

HUSKERS GETTING PRODUCTION FROM 133/149-POUND SPOTS• Two of the biggest question marks coming into the season for NU were about who was going to step into starting roles at 133 and 149 pounds. Jason Renteria (133) and Colton McCrystal (149) both made it to the NCAA Championships last year. Renteria transferred at seasons end, while Colton McCrystal expired his eligibility.• At 133 pounds, redshirt freshman Tucker Sjomeling has stepped up big-time, going 2-1 in the three duals he’s competed in (5-2 overall). His biggest win came against No. 8 Montorie Bridges from Wyoming on Nov. 18. Bridges returns as one of several All-Americans for the Cowboys.• NU remains undefeated in duals at the 149-pound spot in the lineup, as juniors Jordan Shearer (3-0) and Collin Purinton (2-0) have been excellent. They’ve combined to notch 16 dual points, four major decisions and one pin.

LABRIOLA WINS BIG TEN WRESTLER OF THE WEEK• Nebraska redshirt freshman Mikey Labriola (174 pounds) was named the Big Ten Wrestler of the Week on Tuesday, Nov. 13. A native of Easton, Pa., Labriola has been dominant thus far in the 2018-19 season. He earned Big Ten Wrestler of the Week honors after going 3-0 at the Northeast Duals in Albany, N.Y.• In his first match, Labriola squared off with No. 14 Kimball Bastian of Utah Valley and ended up taking an 11-7 victory by decision. In his next bout, the 174-pounder won 18-3 by tech. fall (2:43) against Drexel’s Jason Hoffman. Labriola finished the Northeast Duals with another win by tech. fall, this time over Virginia’s Robby Patrick (6:03), 22-7.• He also went 4-0 in the 174-pound bracket of the Daktronics Open on Nov. 4 to take first place in his weight class. Labriola boasts a 8-1 record (4-1 in duals) with two top-20 wins heading into the Cliff Keen Invitational.• Labriola is Nebraska’s first Big Ten Wrestler of the Week since Robert Kokesh earned the honor as a senior in 2014-15.

Berger will be vying for his third All-America honor in his senior season while Red Jr. and Venz will work towards their second All-America honor in 2018-19.• Four other Huskers qualified for the NCAA Championships, including graduated senior Colton McCrystal (DNP - 149), departed transfer Jason Renteria (Did not compete - 133), sophomore Isaiah White (Round of 12 - 165) and redshirt freshman Eric Schultz (DNP - 197).

BIG TEN CHAMPIONSHIPS• Nebraska finished fifth overall with 72.5 points.• McCrystal finished third overall at 149 pounds while Berger (157) and Venz (184) each took fourth. Red Jr. (141), White (165) and Schultz (197) all took seventh place in their respective weight classes.

REGULAR SEASON• Nebraska posted a 10-4 record, with a 7-2 mark in the Big Ten.• NU finished the dual season ranked 13th in the NWCA Coaches Poll.• The Huskers won five out of its seven duals in the friendly confines of the Devaney Center last season.

NU GOES FOR FIVE STRAIGHT TOP-10 FINISHES• Nebraska’s senior class of Tyler Berger, Zak Hensley, Zeke Moisey, Brian Peska and Aris Shino entered the 2018-19 season looking to ensure that Nebraska’s streak of four consecutive top-10 NCAA finishes continues this season. • Tyler Berger (5-0) looks to etch his name in the Husker history books as a senior. His career-best win total in a season is 36 in 2016-17 and he now sits just 32 wins behind Jordan Burroughs, who ranks in fourth place on the NU all-time wins list. Berger is also just seven wins away from 100 career wins.• Zeke Moisey, a senior from Northhampton, Pa., has one year of eligibility remaining after spending the first four years of his collegiate wrestling career at West Virginia. Moisey qualified for the NCAA Championships twice at WVU. He was the national runner-up at 125 pounds in 2015 and finished eighth in 2018 on his way to All-America honors in both years. He’s off to a 2-1 start this season heading into the Cliff Keen Invitational, which includes a top 20 win over #17 Connor Brown from Wisconsin.

VENZ PICKS UP WHERE HE LEFT OFF• Taylor Venz made an instant impact upon entering the Huskers lineup last fall after a redshirt season in the year prior. The 184-pounder went 29-9 and earned All-America honors after finishing fourth at the 2018 NCAA Championships.• In his first action of 2018-19, Venz dominated his competition, going 3-0 at the Northeast Duals. He won two of his three bouts by decision, but he pinned Drexel’s Owen Brooks (2:38) to end the match early. He’s now 5-0 on the year after taking decisions against both Wisconsin and Wyoming last weekend.

RED AND WHITE LOOK TO BOUNCE BACK• Chad Red Jr. (141) and Isaiah White (165) had outstanding seasons in 2017-18 for Nebraska. As a redshirt freshman, Red Jr. went 26-11 on the way to a 7th place finish at nationals. White, who posted a 25-8 overall record (11-2) in duals, advanced to the Round of 12 at the NCAA Championships.• At the Northeast Duals, Red Jr. lost to Matt Findlay (UVU) in a 10-8 decision and Sam Krivus (UVA) in a 3-1 decision. He won his second dual against Drexel’s Nick Widmann, 2-1. Red did not wrestle against Wisconsin on Nov. 16, but won a 6-2 decision over Wyoming’s Sam Turner on Nov. 18 to move to 2-2 on the year.• In White’s first dual of the year, he was stunned in a sudden victory defeat against Drexel. He responded nicely in his second dual of the day against UVA, grinding out a 7-3 decision over #19 Cam Coy. White took on two more ranked opponents last weekend in #2 Evan Wick (Wisconsin) and #10 Branson Ashworth (Wyoming). Although he defeated both of them last season, White fell short in both matches, and will look to bounce back this weekend.

EIGHT HUSKERS RANKED IN INTERMAT, OPENMAT, FLOWRESTLING RANKINGS• Eight Nebraska wrestlers are currently ranked in the top 20 of their weight class by the weekly rankings services. Tyler Berger (157) and Taylor Venz (184) are the highest-ranked Huskers, as each is ranked as the No. 3 wrestler in their weight class by the InterMat rankings.• Zeke Moisey (125) fell to No. 9 in the InterMat and FloWrestling rankings and No. 10 in the OpenMat rankings after a loss last week. He was at No. 6 and No. 7, respectively.• Mikey Labriola is ranked 14th at 174 pounds by OpenMat and No. 11 by InterMat and FloWrestling.• Chad Red Jr. (141) comes in at No. 13 on the InterMat rankings but stayed in the top ten in each of the other two. Isaiah White (165) comes in at No. 10 on all three and Eric Schultz (197) ranks as the 19th best wrestler in his class on OpenMat and the 18th best on FloWrestling.• After a huge win over No. 8 Montorie Bridges (Wyo.) last Sunday, redshirt freshman Tucker Sjomeling (133) received some love from FloWrestling, earning a #20 ranking.

UNDERCLASSMEN SHOW PROMISE IN OPEN TOURNAMENTS• Several underclassmen are off to outstanding starts to the season in tournament play. A freshman from Neola, Iowa, Alex Thomsen (125) won his bracket at the both the Grand View Open and the UNK Holiday Inn Open, going a perfect 7-0 in those tournaments.• Peyton Robb (157), a freshman from Owatonna, Minn., holds an 11-3 record through three tournaments. He finished third at the Daktronics Open Nov. 4 and won his bracket at the UNK Holiday Inn Open last weekend, going 4-0 with three wins by bonus points.• Zemua Baptista (149) and Johnny Blankenship (165) both took third place at the UNK Holiday Inn Open, while freshman Austin Emerson (HWT) took second. Emerson holds a 10-4 record on the year and has placed in the top five in all three tournaments he’s competed in.

NU TAKING HEAVYWEIGHT SPOT WITH A “BY COMMITTEE” APPROACH• Sophomore Patrick Grayson and junior Christian Lance have been splitting duals so far this season

at the heavyweight spot. Lance has defeated Grayson twice in head-to-head matchups this year. First, at the intrasquad wrestle-offs and then again on Nov. 4 at the Daktronics Open.

• However, Grayson has won two out of the three duals he’s competed in this year, including a top 20 win over #13 Joey Goodhart (Drx.). Lance is still looking to earn his first dual victory for NU.

ROSTER NOTES• 2/3 of the Huskers’ roster are underclassmen, as 23 of Nebraska’s 35 wrestlers are either freshmen or
