The Dana College Viking Leadership Council and Sports Information Department would like to announce the athlete of the week.

Terrence Almond – Wrestling

Terrence Almond (SR, Pelham, Ga.) was nominated by Coach Richard Fergola. Almond was the top seed at last weekend’s Red Raider Open in Orange City, Iowa. Almond went 4-0 on the weekend and was named the tournament’s Most Outstanding Wrestler. Almond won by technical fall, 20-5, over his first opponent. In the quarterfinals, Almond pinned Travis Kirby of Bacone in 4:33. The semifinals saw Almond defeat Jared Pickett of Morningside, 13-6. Almond then pinned second-seeded Quincy Osborn of Augsburg in 1:09 to claim the title.
