Lock Haven Athletics

Fred Garcia (Donora, Pa./Ringgold) of the Lock Haven University wrestling team has been named this week's GoLhu.com male Athlete of the Week.

Garcia was one of six Bald Eagles that went a perfect 2-0 at the Pittsburgh Duals this past weekend, leading LHU to a 2-0 record.

Garcia beat Eastern Michigan's Phillip Joseph, 3-1 to open the day.

Joseph was ranked No. 33 and it marked Garcia's second straight dual-win over a ranked opponent.

Last Sunday, Garcia knocked off West Virginia's Lance Bryson (#23).

Garcia is now 18-8 on the season and riding a seven-match win streak.

He's upset nationally-ranked opponents in two of his last three bouts and has moved into the national rankings (#29) at 184.
