Southern Oregon University’s Noah Talavera was named the WVT Laboratory Men’s Wrestler of the Week.
Talavera, a sophomore 174-pound wrestler from Vancouver, Wash., won both of his matches as SOU took a CCC dual against Corban and an exhibition against North Idaho CC on Sunday in Salem. He needed only 30 seconds to pin Navarro Nanpuya, the No. 6-ranked 174-pounder in the NJCAA, and grabbed a 12-5 decision victory against the Warriors.
