    Blanc named PSAC Wrestler of the Week

    LOCK HAVEN, Pa. -- Lock Haven University grappler Obe Blanc (Naples, Fla./Lely) has been named the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Athlete of the Week for the week ending Nov. 27. This is the first honor for both Blanc and the wrestling squad.

    Blanc, a sophomore who competes for the Bald Eagles at 125 pounds, helped lead the Haven to a fourth place finish at the Mat-Town USA Tournament which was hosted by Lock Haven this past Saturday. After a first round fall and a 13-10 decision in the semi-finals, Blanc dropped his match in the final round to defending national champion and No. 3 Joe Dubuque from Indiana.

    Last season as a redshirt freshman Blanc placed third in the 2005 EWL Tournament and logged a record of 31-14. Blanc is aiming to win the EWL title and become an NCAA All-American in the 2006 NCAA event at Oklahoma City. Blanc was most recently named EWL Wrestler of the Week.

    Blanc and the rest of the Bald Eagle grapplers will hit the mat this Saturday, Dec. 3 against Millersville University. The event is slated to begin at 5 p.m. in the Thomas Field House.
