 </figure>OMAHA (UNMC)-A total of 128 senior medical students at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha received their residency assignments today.Match Day is an annual rite of passage for medical students, a day when they learn at which U.S. residency programs they will train for the next three to seven years in the medical area of their choice. Students are matched through a computer program to align their preferences for residency programs in order to fill the thousands of training positions available at U.S. teaching hospitals.Forty-four percent of UNMC students are staying in Nebraska for their training, and 67 percent matched in primary care, which includes family medicine, internal medicine, internal medicine/pediatrics, pediatrics and obstetrics/gynecology.The UNMC medical students, slated to graduate in May, are listed by hometown, name, specialty and location of residency assignment.CLASS OF 2020 RESIDENCY ASSIGNMENTSBENNINGTON&nbsp;-- Joshua Slogr Edgar, UNMC, Internal Medicine/Primary Care, Omaha NECLARKS&nbsp;-- Tanner Dean Hannappel, University of South Dakota Sanford School of Medicine, Internal Medicine Preliminary, Sioux Falls, SD; UNMC, Diagnostic Radiology, Omaha NECOLUMBUS&nbsp;-- Jenna Marie Essink, UNMC, Pediatrics, Omaha NE; Holly Lynn Groteluschen, UNMC Kearney program, Family Medicine/Primary Care, Omaha NE; Grant William Jirka, Thomas Jefferson University, Internal Medicine, Philadelphia PA; Zachary Joseph Kwapnoski, UNMC, Internal Medicine Preliminary, Omaha NE; UC Davis Medical Center, Dermatology, Sacramento CADAVEY&nbsp;-- Brian Taylor Richard, University of Arizona College of Medicine -Tucson, Orthopaedics, Tucson AZELGIN&nbsp;-- Kevin Joseph Selting, Creighton University Affiliated Hospitals, Internal Medicine Preliminary-Diagnostic Radiology, Omaha NEELKHORN&nbsp;-- Cole Steven Bowdino, UNMC, Surgery Preliminary-Urology, Omaha NE; Tessa Marie Delaney, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Nashville TN; Haley Nicole Haskett, Case Western/University Hospitals/Cleveland Medical Center, Cleveland OH; Brian S.
