Most scheduled matches for Wednesday night were postponed due to snow on the East Coast, but Brockport and Oswego got their match in.
The d3wrestle.com/WWSport.com Wrestler of the Week is Judd Connell of the Merchant Marine Academy. Connell was 4-0 last week with a pair of falls and a forfeit to go along with a decision. The decision came against 2x NCAA qualifier and 2009 All-American Brock Glotfelty of McDaniel. Glotfelty had beaten Connell in each of the past two Centennial Conference heavyweight championship matches as well as in the first round of the tournament the year before that. Connell’s wins this past week helped the #11 ranked Mariners to a 4-0 record and moved him up to the #3 spot at 285.
A senior from Hastings, Minnesota, Connell 20-1 this year with eight falls. He has defeated Glotfelty as well as 2x 197 lb. NCAA runner-up Ryan Malo of Williams. He is a two time runner-up in the Centennial Conference, and he has come on strong with his best season yet in 2010-2011, making himself the current favorite for the Centennial Conference championship. Because tonight’s match against Nassau has been postponed due to weather, Connell and the Mariners will next take the mat on Sunday at home against Stevens, Muhlenberg, and Ursinus in a Centennial Conference quad.

The d3wrestle.com/WWSport.com Wrestler of the Week is Blaine Woszczak of Ithaca. This past week, Woszczak defeated two time 141 lb. defending champion Minga Batsukh of St. John’s and last year’s 149 lb. runner-up Tony Valek of Augsburg, along with #7 ranked Jacob Groth of Wartburg, to help the Bombers to a fourth place finish at the NWCA National Duals. For his efforts, Woszczak was named the Outstanding Wrestler of the event.
His wins this weekend have moved Woszczak, a senior management major from Wall, New Jersey, up to the #2 spot in the latest d3wrestle.com Rankings at 149 lbs. Wosczak is a three time NCAA Qualifier and has placed fourth in each of the last two years at 149 lbs. Last season, he became the first ever Ithaca wrestler to reach 100 wins during his junior year, and his current career record of 121-34 puts him just seven wins shy of the all time Ithaca victories record. This year, he is 21-2 and aiming to become a three time All-American and Ithaca’s first NCAA Champion since 2002. Woszczak and Ithaca are idle this weekend, but they return to action January 22nd and 23rd at the New York State Collegiate Championships hosted by Binghamton.
These rankings take into account all results up through Tuesday, January 11th.
