Huskers Upset Second-Ranked Michigan

 

Ann Arbor, Mich. - The 14th-ranked Nebraska wrestling team rode a technical fall from 125-pound wrestler Paul Donahoe and a major decision win from 133-pounder Patrick Aleksanyan to take a commanding 12-3 lead and never looked back on the way to an 18-16 win over No. 2 Michigan Friday.

 

 

 

The 14th-ranked Donahoe defeated Michigan's Paul Shutich, 15-0, to give NU a lead it would not relinquish in the third match of the dual. Aleksanyan followed with his first career dual win, a 14-4 major decision triumph at 133 pounds over UM's Brandon Elliott to give Nebraska a nine-point lead in the dual.

 

 

 

After setbacks at 141 and 149 pounds, Chris Oliver defeated Rob Sulaver, 9-2, to give the Huskers a 15-10 lead with three matches to go. After a loss at 165 pounds, third-ranked Jacob Klein all but sealed the dual for Nebraska with a 2-1 victory over 17th-ranked Nick Roy. In the final match, Michigan's Tyrel Todd won at 184 pounds over NU's Brandon Browne to cut the final margin to two.

 

 

 

NU (2-0) is next in action Sunday against No. 2 Minnesota at 2 p.m. in Minneapolis, Minn.
