Seth Nevills got thrust into the starting lineup unexpectedly when it was announced reigning heavyweight champion Anthony Cassar was our for the year.
Since then, Nevills has been a formidable replacement, going 4-0 as the starter, including picking up his first career ranked win when he shut out then No. 15 Christian Lance of Nebraska to win Penn State's match against the Cornhuskers 20-18.
For his efforts against Nebraska and for clinching the winning the Nittany Lions the match, Nevills has been named the Daily Collegian's Athlete of the Week.
Nevills faces No. 3 Tony Cassiopi of Iowa on Friday when the Nittany Lions travel to Carver-Hawkeye Arena to take on the Hawkeyes.
