SAN FRANCISCO – Oregon State's Amarveer Dhesi was named the Pacific-12 Conference's Wrestler of the Week on Wednesday.

A redshirt senior from Surrey, B.C., Dhesi went 2-0 on the season completing his perfect run through his dual season.

At Stanford, Dhesi faced then No. 5-ranked Nathan Butler in a battle of top-10 wrestlers. Dhesi won his eighth-straight match with an 8-5 decision over Butler. The next day he scored a season-high 27 points in a technical fall win over Mark Penyacsek at CSU Bakersfield, finishing the dual season at 9-0.

Dhesi is 18-3 overall this season and was the winner of the Reno Tournament of Champions earlier this season.
