UNC's Nolan Neves Named ACC Wrestler Of The Week

Posted Feb 11, 2025
Nolan Neves has been named the ACC Wrestler of the Week, the league announced Tuesday. The honor is the St. Paris, Ohio native's first of his Tar Heel career. In Carolina's win over No. 15 Pitt last Friday night, Neves' victory at 285 pounds served as the difference maker, as the redshirt-freshman defeated No. 13 Dayton Pitzer by decision, 14-9.
