    Erwin wins Northeast Regional title and earns OW

    UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- Penn State Nittany Lion wrestler David Erwin (Urbana, Ohio) was Outstanding Wrestler at the 2006 USA Wrestling Northeast Regional Championships at the Cadet Freestyle Festival in Brockport, N.Y. Erwin won the award after dominating the competition en route to winning the 185.5-pound weight class.

    Head coach Troy Sunderland had a number of Penn Staters compete at the event, with a total of five earning top four spots. In addition to true freshman Erwin winning his title, red-shirt freshman Jon Clemens (McVeytown, Pa.) was runner-up at 163 pounds.

    Red-shirt freshman Joe Farina (Denville, N.J.) was runner-up as well, placing second in the 264.5-pound weight class. State College native Nathan Galloway (State College, Pa.), a junior, finished third at 163 pounds and true freshman Mike Ward (Mayfield, Ohio) placed fourth at 185.5.

    The solid performance at this past weekend's Brockport event follows closely on the heels of an outstanding showing by Penn State's freestyle wrestlers in Las Vegas earlier this month.
