Joey McKenna is off to a great start this season, earning a pair of victories and Big Ten Wrestler of the Week honors in a four-day span. The Conference presented the Ohio State senior captain with the first weekly award of the season after a major win over No. 4 Kaid Brock of Oklahoma State at the annual NWCA All-Star Classic in Denver.
The award marked McKenna's second Wrestler of the Week crown; he was the most recent Buckeye honored as Wrestler of the Week, back on February 20.
McKenna defeated Brock in a primetime battle last Friday, ending the bout with nine unanswered points and securing an 11-4 victory.
