Huskies fall to undefeated Missouri
Northern Star Staff The wrestling team hit the mats for the first of two weekend Mid-American Conference duals Friday with a 40-6 loss against the No. 5 ranked University of Missouri.
NIU earned just one win of the 10 matchups against a Missouri Tigers team that has started the season undefeated, now at 14-0.
“We just got to pick ourselves back up. Tomorrow is a new day, and we will focus on getting better tomorrow.” Head Coach Ryan Ludwig said. “We don’t have time to feel sorry for ourselves.”
The Huskies are 1-3 in the MAC, sitting in sixth place with the Tigers leading the conference at 7-0. Ludwig said he was not impressed with his team’s performance against a tough Missouri team.
