ALL-TIME SERIES INFORMATION
The Hoos have never faced either Ithaca College or LIU Post in the program history, but have a very limited history with both the Huskers and the Cowboys. Virginia is 0-3 all time against Nebraska with the last meeting coming in the 2013 season. The Cavaliers are 1-3 all time against Wyoming with the last meeting coming in the 2011 season.
LAST TIME OUT FOR THE HOOS
The Cavaliers opened the season at home against Indiana in a dual meet last weekend, taking a 25-12 victory over the Hoosiers. It marked the first-ever win over Indiana in the series and the first win over a Big 10 team for the Cavaliers since the 2010 season when Virginia defeated Michigan. Virginia won 7-of-10 weight classes, including bonus-point victories at three weight classes on the way to the dual win.
UP NEXT FOR VIRGINIA
The Cavaliers will have a break before returning to action at the Las Vegas Cliff Keen Invitational. The two-day event begins on Nov. 30 and runs through the championship on Dec. 1.
