Wrestling: Labriola Earns Second Big Ten Wrestler of the Week Honor of Season

Nebraska junior Mikey Labriola took out No. 2 Michael Kemerer Sunday night in Nebraska’s near comeback against No. 2 Iowa.

Labriola rose to No. 3 in the rankings with the win and earned his second Big Ten Wrestler of the Week award of the year after winning it on Dec. 8 as well. It’s also his third time winning the award in his career.

The Pennsylvania native is already a three-time All-American for the Huskers and finished third at the NCAA Championships in 2021. He owns an 83-23 career record (wins while redshirting are not eligible for career record) for the Huskers, so he’s essentially a lock to go over 100 wins early in his senior year.
