    Green named MAC Wrestler of the Week

    BUFFALO, NY -- Desi Green (Henrietta, NY/Rush-Henrietta) has been named the Mid-American Conference Wrestler of the Week. In the Bulls' dual meet against Central Michigan last weekend, the redshirt-freshman captured a one-point victory over the tenth ranked wrestler in the nation.

    In the 149-lb matchup, Steve Brown of Central Michigan entered the match ranked first in the latest MAC rankings followed by Green. The two wrestlers entered the final period tied at 2-2. With four seconds remaining on the clock, Green scored a takedown to take a 4-3 lead. Green held on for the win, scoring the Bulls only points on the day.

    With Green's victory, he now joins the UB wrestling greats in the record books. He is currently tied for 14th place in school history in dual meet wins in a season (14) and is only two wins away from 15th place for most overall wins in a season (30).

    Green is currently undefeated at 3-0 against MAC wrestlers. He currently leads the Bulls in takedowns (41), falls (3), overall wins and dual meet wins and is also tied for first in technical falls (1) and reversals (4).

    Green and the Bulls will return home for the first time since November 26 when they take on the 24th ranked team in the nation, the Kent State Flashes (8-4, MAC 1-0) on Saturday, February 7 at 7 pm.
