Best Wrestlers in Nebraska History


Ridge Lovett, Peyton Robb, Mikey Labriola, Eric Schultz, and Christian Lance added medals to the list in 2022.

NJ legend and Olympic champion Jordan Burroughs leads the pack with his two NCAA titles.

NJ state champion James Green became a four-time NCAA All-American for Nebraska in 2015 before winning multiple world medals.

The top six wrestlers in Huskers history won a total of nineteen NCAA medals and five titles.

All were NCAA finalists, and they include four NCAA champions, a two-time champion, and a four-time All-American.

Check out the best Nebraska wrestlers of all-time ranked by NCAA medals!

Burroughs' latest victory marked his sixth World Championship, the most ever by an American freestyle wrestler. Burroughs was also the 2008 Olympic champion, and his seven combined World and Olympic titles are also the most by an American wrestler."

  • A 174-pound senior from Easton, Penn., Labriola returns looking to become the first-ever five-time All-American. Labriola is currently one of only three four-time All-Americans in the history of Nebraska wrestling. Last season, he finished fifth at the Big Ten Championships and his seventh-place finish at NCAAs cemented his All-American status.
  • Labriola was second on the team last year with 23 wins, giving him a career record of 92-26. This season, he has the chance to be the 30th all-time member of the 100-win club and would join former teammate Taylor Venz. All but one of Labriola's losses last season were to wrestlers ranked in the top 10.

Labriola could be the first NU wrestler to notch five All American honors!

"The Easton, Pennsylvania, native has earned All-American honors in 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022. He eyes his fifth after being granted an extra year of eligibility due to COVID-19.

Labriola has already surpassed the 100-win career total."

I was really hopeful that my HS classmate's son was going to NU... Wrestled at Hastings High. Landon Weidner. The kid has a work ethic and a passion for wrestling. He won his first wrestling tournament before he was in kindergarten. Back to back State titles and I believe a second place his sophomore year. Augustana is going to have a good group as they have a couple of other state champs from Hastings going there as well. NU offered him but he wanted to go with his teammates.

"Looking back at the last ten years, here are some updated figures regarding key benchmarks in college wrestling.
Since there was no national tournament in 2020, our look has extended back to the 2013 season. Also, remember that the Ivy League schools did not participate during the 2021 season, so their numbers may have taken a slight hit, as a result."

NCAA Titles: Nebraska = 0 (NU last title was Burroughs in 2009 and 2011)
NCAA Finalists: (4) Nebraska
NCAA All-Americans: (32) Nebraska
NCAA Top-Ten Finishes: (6) Nebraska
NCAA Team Trophy (Top-Four Finishes): Nebraska = 0 (
NU hasn’t won a team trophy since finishing fourth two years in a row in 2008 and 2009)

Congratulations to Coach being named as 2023 B1G Coach of he Year by Lauren Muthler, Big Ten Correspondent.

2023 Pre-NCAA B1G Awards​


Lauren: Mark Manning, Nebraska

After graduating four All-Americans in Eric Schultz, Christian Lance, Taylor Venz and Chad Red, and redshirting another in NCAA runner-up Ridge Lovett, it seemed like 2022-23 might be a rebuilding year for the Huskers. After losing two of their first three duals, including 20-16 to North Dakota State, it was looking like there might be credence to that thought.

But then, Nebraska started to turn things around. It won its third straight Cliff Keen title, with Peyton Robb, Brock Hardy and Mikey Labriola as champs. It got its revenge on the Dakotas by topping South Dakota State, 22-17, and finished the regular season 12-3 - its only other loss coming to Iowa. Robb and Labriola finished their regular seasons undefeated and Liam Cronin emerged as one of the biggest surprise stories in the conference.

The Huskers then placed a program-best five wrestlers in the Big Ten finals and crowned their first champ since Robert Kokesh in 2015, finishing third with 104.6 team points.

A lot of different factors had to have gone into Nebraska's season turnaround, but it would have been a lot more difficult without Mark Manning's leadership from the top and the coaching staff he's assembled with Bryan Snyder, Kokesh and Tervel Dlagnev. Oh, and Manning also surpassed his 300th-win milestone this season.
