Teshya Alo (Honolulu, Hawaii/Team Hawaii) has been named TheMat.com Wrestler of the Week for June 30-July 6.

Each week, TheMat.com will select an Athlete of the Week, based upon performance within wrestling for that week. The selection committee will consider any level of wrestling, from youth programs through the Senior level.

Alo became the first female double winner of the USA Wrestling Kids Nationals when she won titles in Greco-Roman and freestyle wrestling last week in Orem, Utah.

Alo brought home the freestyle gold with a first-round pin over California's Aaron Mora in the Novice 75-pound division finals. She showed her prowess in freestyle, dominating her competition by going 6-0 with three pins.

She also became the first female wrestler to win a Kids Nationals freestyle championship.

Note: To nominate a wrestler for TheMat.com Wrestler of the Week, send the athlete's name, accomplishments for the week and career accomplishments to Craig Sesker at csesker@usawrestling.org
