    Clarion's Bedelyon PSAC/EWL Wrestler of the Week

    Clarion University 141-pound, sophomore wrestler Tyler Bedelyon (Lewistown/Indian Valley), was named the PSAC (Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference) and EWL (Eastern Wrestling League) Wrestler of the Week for his outstanding performance in a 3-0 week for himself and the Golden Eagles.

    Bedelyon upped his season record to 15-13 with a 3-0 record that opened on Saturday with a pin at 3:59 over Josh Palivoda in helping Clarion to a 45-5 home win over Cleveland State.

    On Sunday the Golden Eagles traveled to Princeton to take on the Tigers and Franklin & Marshall in a double dual meet. Bedelyon opened against F&M's Richard Durso and won an 11-3 major decision, then came back and upset No. 11 rated Adam Krop of Princeton by pinning the Tiger at 1:59. Bedelyon used two, first period takedowns to jump out to a 4-1 lead before posting his fall.

    “Tyler had a great weekend and is very deserving of these honors,” said Clarion first year head coach Matt Dernlan. “He's a very hard working and dedicated athlete who is also a strong student,” praised Dernlan. “we are proud to have him in our program.”

    Clarion won all three dual meets to run its season record to 5-6 overall and 2-3 in the EWL. After defeating Cleveland State (45-5), the Golden Eagles dropped Franklin & Marshall 42-4 and Princeton 36-9.

    Bedelyon is a finance major at Clarion and is the son of Mike and Amy Bedelyon. A red-shirt sophomore, he was recently honored as a Clarion University “Scholar Athlete” for the third straight year.
