    Villalonga named EIWA Wrestler of the Week

    ITHACA, N.Y. -- Big Red wrestling's Chris Villalonga was named the EIWA Wrestler of the Week on Monday after upsetting fourth ranked Corey Jantzen on Friday night at 149 pounds. The Big Red sophomore defeated Jantzen 1-0 to help Cornell sail past Harvard, 38-7, in an Ivy League dual.

    Villalonga went 2-0 for the weekend after following up his stellar Friday performance by pinning Brown's Ricky Bailey in 2:44 on Saturday. With a record of 18-5 for the season, Villalonga broke into InterMat's national rankings this week and is now No. 19 at 149 pounds.

    The Big Red has now won 52-straight Ivy League matches and is a perfect 7-0 in duals this season. Cornell will travel to Iowa this weekend for a 1 p.m. CST dual at Iowa State on Sunday afternoon.
