    Nadolsky named ACC Wrestler of the Week

    GREENSBORO, N.C. -- Thanks to an unblemished record at the Dec. 4 Nittany Lion Open, North Carolina junior heavyweight Spencer Nadolsky was named Co-Atlantic Coast Conference Wrestler of the Week Monday.

    Currently ranked No. 14 by InterMat, Nadolsky went 5-0 and placed first at Penn State's Nittany Lion Open to run his season record to 19-2 and claim his first individual title at Carolina. The Holland, Mich., native opened with a pin of Paul Burser of Edinboro in 5:31 and followed with a 6-0 decision over Jeff Barker of Buffalo in the second round. Nadolsky then posted an 11-0 major decision over Joe Farina of Penn State and a 3-2 win over Virginia Tech's Mike Faust in the semifinals. Nadolsky followed with his second pin of the day in the final, a defeat of Navy's Ed Prendergast in 2:35. He leads the Tar Heels with nine pins on the season.

    Nadolsky, who shares this week's honor with NC State's Ryan Goodman, is the second Tar Heel to earn the league's weekly accolade this season. Redshirt freshman Vincent Ramirez claimed the honor Nov. 28.

    Nadolsky, Ramirez and the Tar Heels return to action Sunday at the Clairon Duals.
