For the week ending January 23th, sophomore wrestler Collin Crowell (Hampstead, N.H.) has earned RWU Male Athlete of the Week honors for his performance in the New England Dual Meet Championship, contributing significantly to the hawks’ fifth place finish. 

Crowell went 4-0 on the day, first defeating James Tarpey of Plymouth State 18-2 with a technical fall.  Wesleyan’s Richard Leuchter suffered a similar fate as Crowell beat his competitor via technical fall as well (16-1).  Crowell went on to earn a major decision (10-1) over Gene Deary of Bridgewater State and then his third technical fall of the tournament over Rhode Island College’s Robert Sotelo. 

RWU Wrestling will host the NEWA-Metro Conference Challenge Duals on Saturday, January 28th.  The College of New Jersey will be the hawks’ first competitor starting at 12:00 p.m.
