Nebraska’s Ridge Lovett, a redshirt junior from Post Falls, lost via a 1-0 decision to Virginia Tech’s Caleb Henson in the 149-pound semifinals at the NCAA Championships on Friday in Kansas City, Mo.

Lovett, the top seed, beat Casey Swiderski by a 14-1 major decision in the quarterfinals earlier in the day to advance.

Lovett, who was runner-up in 2022, will wrestle in the consolation bracket today (8 a.m., ESPNU).
