Three of the last five Mid-American Conference Male Scholar Athletes of the Week have been Kent State wrestlers after Chance Driscoll (Aurora, Ohio) earned the honor on Wednesday. The junior 141-pounder recently went 4-0 at the Virginia Duals Jan. 13-14, inside Hampton Coliseum.
An economics major, Driscoll carries a 3.63 cumulative grade point average. Now in his fourth year in the classroom, he is on pace to earn a bachelor's degree in May.
Driscoll helped the Golden Flashes defeat The Citadel with a 7-1 decision over Douglas Gudenburr Saturday. With his team trailing 12-0 to start the dual, Driscoll sparked a string of seven Kent State wins in the final eight matches.
