INDIANAPOLIS - Lawson Losee earned the Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) Men's Wrestler of the Week Award on Thursday. This marked the second time in his career that he's earned the honor and the first to win it for the Peacocks this season.
Losee went 5-0 at this past weekend's Luther College Open. He beat No. 2 Drake Hayward of Minnesota State in the finals by a 5-1 decision. Losee's GLVC Wrestler of the Week award last season also came after a win over Hayward.
