CLEVELAND, Ohio — Eastern Michigan University wrestler Sean Clair has been tabbed the Mid-American Conference Wrestler of the Week, the conference office announced today, Nov. 6. The No. 19 ranked Clair finished in third place in the 133 lbs. weight class at the EMU Open Nov. 3, and is a first time winner of the weekly award.

Clair, a redshirt sophomore from Turtlecreek, Pa., entered the 2007-08 season after sitting out as a redshirt last year.
