App State wrestling redshirt junior Will Formato took home the Southern Conference Wrestler of the Week last week.
After earning a 13-0 shutout against Duke’s Gabe Dinette, the 26th ranked 165-pound Formato faced off against Gardner-Webb’s RJ Mosley, ranked 24th in the weight class. The Georgia native went scoreless through the first period and trailed 1-0 after Mosley earned an escape point just over halfway through the second period. Shortly into the third period, Formato evened the score with a quick escape point and secured a win with an extra point from riding time.
“Will Formato had another good win over a nationally ranked opponent,” head coach JohnMark Bentley said.
