USM's Dan DeCarlo Named NEWA Rookie Wrestler of the Week

Freshman wrestler Dan DeCarlo Earned NEWA Rookie of the Week Honors
            Grappling at 165-pounds, DeCarlo continued his strong start to his intercollegiate career posting a 2-0 record over the weekend, as the Huskies split a pair of dual matches with Rhode Island College and Plymouth State.  DeCarlo helped leads the Huskies to a resounding 40-9 win over PSU with a 4-2 win over the Panthers' Clay Callahan.  In his second match of the day, DeCarlo then battled his way to a thrilling 7-5 decision against Rhode Island College's Vincent Drago.
            With the two wins, DeCarlo improved his overall record to 10-4.  He has won his last four matches consecutively and is among the team leaders in wins by fall with seven.
            Southern Maine, ranked ninth in the latest New England Division III Poll, is 7-3 on the season in dual meet action.  Off for Finals Week, Southern Maine returns to action on Sunday, December 21 at Grapple at the Garden.  USM will face two nationally-ranked opponents while competing at New York City's Madison Square Garden.  The Huskies will face Stevens Institute (8:00 a.m.) and Muhlenberg (10:00 a.m.).
