CLEVELAND, Ohio (EMUEagles.com) — Eastern Michigan redshirt senior wrestler Kyle Springer (New Boston, Mich.-Davenport Assumption (Indiana)) was named the Mid-American Conference Wrestler of the Week for the period ending Feb. 4, the league office announced Wednesday, Feb. 7. It is the third wrestler of the week honor for the Eagles this season, and the second of Springer's career.
Springer helped the Eagles to a 2-0 weekend with dual wins over Buffalo, Feb. 2, and Kent State, Feb. 4. Wrestling in the final home matches of his career, Springer was a point scoring machine. He started off winning by 12-5 decision against the Bulls. He followed that up with a 22-7 technical fall win on Senior Day over nationally ranked Nick Monico of the Golden Flashes.
The veteran now has bonus points in 13 of his 17 wins this season, including a team-high eight major decisions, as well as two technical falls and three pins. His 17 total wins leads all EMU starters as well.
Eastern returns to the mats this Friday, Feb. 9, for a dual against MAC rival Central Michigan University. Action in Mt. Pleasant is set to start at 7 p.m.
