Now that was one eventful night at the Devaney Center.

Nebraska stayed perfect on the year in a triangular with #13 Northern Iowa and Wyoming Saturday afternoon, but it wasn’t without its highs and lows.

After UNI beat Wyoming 36-6, Nebraska took on the Cowboys of Wyoming. After an opening loss, Nebraska won nine straight matches with seven bonus-point wins to trounce Wyoming 44-3. The Huskers ended the dual with d-lineman Nash “The Polar Bear” Hutmacher pinning his opponent in the first period in his first collegiate match. Hutmacher was the #1 heavyweight prospect in the country in high school while going 166-0 with four South Dakota state titles.
