Hadley Harrison - Clarion
Senior
McKean / General McLane
Harrison went an impressive 3-0 with two falls this past week to lead the Golden Eagles to a 2-1 dual meet record. In his first bout of the week, Harrison was one of only two Clarion wrestlers to come up victorious, as his 7-4 decision was one of the lone bright spots in a 28-8 loss to Pittsburgh.
On Saturday Harrison returned to the mat and pinned Cleveland State's Corey Carlo at 2:50, helping Calrion to a 49-0 win. However it was later in the day when Harrison would post his most impressive win of the week and possibly the biggest of his season to date. Harrison, ranked 19th by Amatuer Wrestling News, pinned the ninth ranked wrestler in the nation, North Caolina's Thomas Scotten in the first period at 2:10 to help Clarion to its second win of the day, 25-19.
Harrison is now 31-7, and has a career record of 95-52 between the 157 and 149 pound weight classes, and ranks 22nd all-time at Clarion. The pin over Scotten was his first career win over a top 10 wrestler.
