Lock Haven University's  Josh Medina

The Eastern Wrestling League's wrestler of the week for the week ended January 23, 2005, is Josh Medina, who competes at 149 pounds for Lock Haven University.  Josh is a junior from Las Vegas, who transferred to LHU from Pima Community College in Arizona, and is majoring in criminal justice and sports administration.

  Last weekend Coach Bonomo's LHU squad wrestled Stanford University of the powerful Pac 10 and top 5-ranked Iowa State, both dual meets held at Ames, Iowa.  Although the Bald Eagles came out on the short end of the team score against both opponents, Medina won his two matches.

  Against Stanford Mr. Medina beat Zack Hensley 7-5, and in the Iowa State match he grabbed a hard-fought 8-7 decision over Aaron Scott.  Well done Josh, winning bouts over foes from the Pac 10 and Big 12 in one weekend.

  Congratulations to Josh Medina, our Eastern Wrestling League's wrestler of the week!
