BEREA, OHIO -- Baldwin Wallace University senior 197-pound wrestler Tristan Stoll (Milan/Edison) is this week's Ohio Athletic Conference Wrestler of the Week (December 13, 2010) for the first time this season and third time of his career.
On Saturday, Stoll pinned NCAA Division II Lake Erie College's Bobby Hager in 2:05 during the Yellow Jackets lone dual match of the week. The pin was Stoll's third of the season and the victory improved his season record to 8-1 overall.
Earlier this season, Stoll captured the individual title at 197 pounds in the season-opening Messiah (Pa.) Tournament with a 4-0 record and also finished second at the Rochester Institute of Technology Tournament. Last year, Stoll was 20-4 overall with 13 pins and finished third at the OAC Championships at 197.
Stoll and the Yellow Jackets are back in action on December 20 when they travel to Las Vegas, Nevada to compete at the Annual Desert Duals Tournament hosted by Wartburg (Iowa) College at the Flamingo Resort & Casino.
