Dylan Ness (Bloomington, Minn./Team Minnesota) has been named TheMat.com Wrestler of the Week for June 9-15.

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.

Ness won a Triple Crown in Cadets in 2008. He also won Cadet Nationals Greco-Roman and Folkstyle titles in 2007 and was a Triple Crown winner in the Schoolboy division in 2006.

Dylan Ness is the younger brother of University of Minnesota All-American Jayson Ness.
