    COLUMBUS, Ohio -– Ohio State freshman wrestler Lance Palmer is a finalist for the 2005-06 Cleveland Outstanding High School Athlete Award, which will be presented at the fifth annual Greater Cleveland Sports Awards, created by The Greater Cleveland Sports Commission (GCSC), Jan. 29 at the Renaissance Cleveland Hotel, Grand Ballroom.

    Palmer, who has compiled a 17-10 record so far in his first collegiate season, was a four-time Ohio high school national champion from 2003-2006. During his senior campaign, Palmer helped lead St. Edward High School to its 10th-consecutive team title at the Ohio High School Athletic Association wrestling tournament at Value City Arena in Columbus, Ohio. A two-time Most Valuable Wrestler for the Eagles, Palmer compiled a high school career record of 146-6 and was considered the No. 1 recruit nationally by several wrestling media publications.

Past emcees of the gala have included Bob Costas, Dan Patrick, Roy Firestone and Ahmad Rashad. Robin Roberts, co-anchor of Good Morning America will be the emcee for the event this year.
