    LAWRENCEVILLE -- TJ Morrison of Rider University and Jon Oplinger of Drexel University have been named the Colonial Athletic Association Wrestlers of the Week, and Bryan LaShomb of Old Dominion University is the CAA Rookie of the Week, for all competition February 14-20.

    Morrison, a sophomore 197 from Mechanicsburg, PA (Cedar Cliff), won all three of his CAA dual meets last week to improve to 8-1 in the CAA, 17-3 in duals and 26-6 overall. Morrison upset the 20th ranked wrestler in the nation from Hofstra, and won a major decision in a CAA win at Sacred Heart.

    Oplinger, a sophomore 197 from Bath, PA (Northampton), won both of his matches last week for Drexel, including a major decision over the 16th ranked wrestler in the country from Lehigh. The victory was his fifth in a row since returning from a knee injury, and the 20th of the season.

    LaShomb, a freshman 125 from Chesapeake, VA (Great Bridge), went 2-0 last week with a pair of major decisions. LaShomb now leads ODU with seven major decisions this year while improving to 13-5 in duals, 21-13 overall.
