Seniors James Green (157) and Robert Kokesh (174) begin their final season in a Husker singlet on Saturday night at the NWCA All-Star Classic at The Palestra in Philadelphia, Pa.
Video streaming for the event will be provided by Flowrestling.com, with a subscription required to view the matches. TrackWrestling.com will have live stats.
Green, the second-ranked wrestler at 157 pounds by InterMat, will battle No. 3 Ian Miller of Kent State. Kokesh, the No. 2 wrestler at 174 pounds, faces NAIA No. 1 and three-time national champion Brock Gutches of Southern Oregon.
Green, a three-time All-American, finished third at the 2014 NCAA Championships after dominating Miller by a 13-1 major decision in his final match of the tournament. Green collected seventh-place NCAA finishes during his freshman and sophomore seasons at Nebraska. He also won the 2014 Big Ten title at 157 pounds, and finished his junior campaign with a 35-2 record, which included 10 major decisions, five pins and four technical falls.
For his career at Nebraska, Green is 94-17 in three seasons, and holds a 37-7 mark in dual competition. He seeks to become the second wrestler in Nebraska history to earn All-America honors on four occasions, a title currently owned by Associate Head Coach Bryan Snyder, who wrestled from 1999 to 2002.
Green’s opponent, Miller, went 31-6 last season on his way to a fourth-place finish at the NCAA Championships. He also won the 2014 Mid-American Conference title at 157 pounds after redshirting in 2012-13. Miller is a junior in 2014-15.
Kokesh, a two-time All-American, finished fourth at the 2014 NCAA Championships after capturing the 174-pound Big Ten title. The Wagner, S.D., native took third place in 2013, and holds a career record of 105-14. Kokesh compiled a 37-3 record last season, which included a perfect 14-0 dual record. He led the team in dual points (67) and pins (9), while adding five technical falls and 10 major decisions.
Kokesh and Green become the 30th and 31st Husker wrestlers to compete at the NWCA All-Star Classic and the first since 2009 when Jordan Burroughs, Stephen Dwyer and Craig Brester all competed.
