Nebraska's 125 All-Americans

One of the most storied wrestling programs in the nation, Nebraska has produced 131 All-Americans in over 100 years of wrestling in Lincoln. The Huskers have also earned an impressive 104 honors since 1990, thanks in part to Bryan Snyder, James Green, Mikey Labriola and Chad Red Jr., the only three wrestlers in Husker history to capture All-America honors on four occasions.

18 Huskers have earned All-American honors three times while 15 NU grapplers are two-time honorees. Five times a Husker has claimed the Manuel Gorrarian Award at the NCAA Championships, which is awarded to the wrestler who records the most pins in the least amount of time at the event. Below are Nebraska's 122 All-American awards won, including the year and weight the wrestler claimed the honor.

National champions are in bold.

** Since the 2020 NCAA Wrestling Championships were canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, those who earned All-America honors from the NWCA in 2020 count towards the program's All-American total.
