Underwood junior wrestler Alex Thomsen announced on Tuesday that he has committed to continue his wrestling career at the University of Nebraska.

Thomsen is an undefeated three-time state champion for the Eagles and plans to wrestle at 126 in his final high school season. He has a high school career record of 139-0 heading into his senior campaign.

Thomsen considered Oklahoma, North Carolina, Minnesota, Iowa, and Iowa State before choosing Nebraska.  He told multiple outlets that he wanted to make the decision now because he knew he felt the best fit was with the Huskers.

Thomsen could potential be a 125-pounder with the Big Red but potentially could move to 133.
