of the Week
MM• Stephen Hult (NYU): New York University senior Stephen Hult garnered All-America honors with a third-place finish in the 141-pound weight class at the 2008 NCAA Division III Wrestling Championships in Cedar Rapids, IA. Hult won his first two matches to reach the semifinals before losing to eventual champion Michael Bonora of Rhode Island College, 5-3, in the final second of the match. Hult rebounded, however, to win both of his consolation bouts to finish third, matching the best individual finish for a NYU wrestler at the NCAA Championship. Hult finished the year with a 32-6 record in helping the Violets to a 12th-place finish and ended his collegiate career with a 97-23 mark.
