Springfield College

Jacob Deguire of the wrestling team has been chosen as a Springfield College Maroon Club Student-Athlete of the Week.

In his first action since taking third at the 2023 NCAA Division III Championships at 157 pounds where he set a record for most pinfalls in the national tournament, Deguire picked up right where he left off to begin his junior campaign.  Making his debut at 174 pounds, last year's national pin leader produced three this weekend en route to finishing atop the podium.  In a bracket that featured the nation's third-ranked wrestler, Deguire advanced to the finals after two pins and a decision before needing just 41 seconds to put Castleton's Desmond McLaughlin on his back for the win.
