CLINTON, S.C. – Having her hand raised in six consecutive matches to aid the Presbyterian College women's wrestling team to four victories in a row, true freshman Cassia Zammit was selected as the Adidas / Game One PC Student-Athlete of the Week.

Joining fellow newbie Henlee Haynes who received the distinction on November 7, Zammit kept the train rolling during the team's first-ever complete shutout over the weekend against Huntingdon (47-0), defeating her opponent in the 136-lb. class via 70-second pin.

Behind a 4-2 overall record, the Blue Hose find themselves at number 13 in the latest NWCA countrywide rankings. Zammit may just be the hottest of the bunch thanks to her increasing win streak, boosting her individual mark to 7-2 on the young campaign.



A native of Miamisburg, Ohio, Cassia's pin on Saturday landed as the fourth fall of her PC career for a group that has calculated 75 W's since the start of the semester. At present, it's been 30 days and counting since the freshman has taken a loss (going 3-0 inside Templeton Gym).

Prior to the one-sided beatdown over the Hawks last weekend, Zammit helped Presby defeat both Bluefield State and Allen by an added difference of 68 points with a forfeit and a 10-0 technical. Currently, she equals Haynes (170) and Chiara Barbieri (101) for the third-highest win count on the roster.

While the majority of PC's slate thus far has occurred in a dual setting, the rest of December will see the squad enter into two tournaments just over two weeks apart. They'll head to Emory & Henry in Virginia for the Wasp Open in three days' time, transitioning to the esteemed Midlands Championships in Chicago on the 30^th.

Presbyterian similarly squared off in the Wasp Open 12 months ago and utterly dominated the field on their way to an eventual ninth-place national finish in March, claiming six different wrestlers in the top three of their respective weight class at that specific event in 2022.

The Presbyterian College Athletic Department partnered with Game One on a multi-year apparel agreement last November as an official team dealer for Adidas. The partnership extended the university's alliance with Adidas which began in 2015 to outfit the Blue Hose athletic programs.

Game One is among the largest and fastest-growing sports equipment and apparel suppliers in the country, serving a loyal customer base of 13,000 schools and organizations in 38 states.
