Moyer Named Wrestler of the Week

Junior 141-pound wrestler Dominick Moyer was named Big 12 Wrestler of the Week, the conference announced Monday.  Moyer joins senior 174-pound wrestler Jacob Klein as the second Husker wrestler to be named conference wrestler of the week this season.

 

Moyer, the 19th-ranked 141-pound wrestler, all but clinched NU’s victory over Missouri on Sunday with his pin of Chris McCormick with 22 seconds to go in the dual.  The victory by fall gave NU a 21-3 lead that they would not relinquish.

 

The award is the first career wrestler of the week citation for Moyer, who is now 15-7 on the season after his win Sunday.  Moyer and the Huskers will take on second-ranked OklahomaState in Stillwater, Okla., on Friday, Feb. 3 at 7 p.m.
