BOONE, N.C. — Appalachian State's Randall Diabe has been named the Southern Conference Wrestler of the Month for February,
Diabe, a junior from Greensboro, had a 3-0 dual meet record at 197 pounds last month with victories against Duke and two NCAA qualifiers from the Southern Conference.
Diabe capped a 7-0 run through the league with 3-2 decisions against 10th-ranked Scottie Boykin of Chattanooga and The Citadel's Sawyer Root, with the upset win in Chattanooga helping App State erase a 16-12 deficit in an 18-16 victory that gave the Mountaineers a third straight SoCon title.
