The Husker wrestling squad has a tradition of excellence that dates back over 100 years. Starting with its inaugural season in 1910, Nebraska has always sported a competitive team during the regular and postseason. Bob Fehrs helped the Huskers take a step towards national domination with his arrival in 1978. He coached NU to its first double-digit winning season and Nebraska hasn't looked back since.
NU has recorded at least 10 dual wins in 38 of the last 44 seasons, including racking up a 257-96-3 record under current Head Coach Mark Manning. During the last 31 years, the Huskers have set team records for most wins in a season (21 in 1989-90), most consecutive wins to start a season (10 in 2011-12) and most consecutive winning seasons (13 from 1988-2001). Below are the year-by-year results of the Husker wrestling squad, including the head coach under which the team achieved their record.
