Belmont Abbey's Siwiec Named South Atlantic Conference Carolinas Men's Wrestler of the Week


HIGH POINT, N.C.Belmont Abbey College's Mike Siwiec has been named the South Atlantic Conference Carolinas Men's Wrestler of the Week for meets held during the week of Jan. 21-27, the league announced today. This marks both the second POTW for Siwiec and Belmont Abbey.

A junior from Toms River, N.J., Siwiec was the hero in Belmont Abbey's victory over Coker last week with a late fall. With the Crusaders down 25-19, Siwiec would take the mat against Dalton Haywood of Coker and come away with a fall in just 1:49 of action. The win would end the dual tied at 25-all, but Belmont Abbey would win the contest through tiebreaker by way of Siwiec's pin.
