    Bonilla-Bowman named CAA Wrestler of the Week

    LAWRENCEVILLE, NJ -- Hofstra sophomore Jonny Bonilla-Bowman, who recorded two top 20 victories last week, has been named the Colonial Athletic Association Wrestler of the Week for all competition from February 12 through 18.

    Bonilla-Bowman, a 157-pounder from Pomona, New York, defeated Drexel's Ryan Hluschak, the top ranked 157 in the CAA who was ranked 11th nationally. The transfer from Virginia Tech then went out on Sunday and defeated #17 Chris Oliver from Nebraska, 33-17, recording 14 takedowns in the match. Bonilla-Bowman, who becomes the top ranked wrestler at 157 pounds in the CAA this week, has won eight of his last nine matches to improve to 15-11 overall and 5-0 in conference contests.

    Bonilla-Bowman shares the CAA Wrestler of the Week award with Binghamton's Nate Patterson, who also defeated Hluschak last week. The conference also announced that George Mason freshman 197-pound wrestler Cayle Byers, who went 2-0 last week to improve to 33-5 on the season, was named the CAA Rookie of the Week.
