A top 10 finish. An NCAA finalist. And a serious comeback story. And a history-making alum coming back to join the coaching staff. That’s the story for Nebraska. This season the Huskers have to replace a few All-Americans while they get another one – an NCAA finalist – back in the lineup. And they also return some serious horses while inviting some newcomers to join the squad.
Top Returners
After finishing as a runner-up at the 2022 NCAA Championships, Ridge Lovett took a redshirt year where he only competed at the Wyoming Cowboy Open and went 4-0. He will return this year at 149 pounds and look to improve upon his second-place finish from a few seasons ago. Lovett isn’t the only high-caliber competitor in the chamber. He will be between All-Americans Brock Hardy and Peyton Robb, who return at 141 and 157, respectively.
