Anthony Robles (Mesa, Arizona/Arizona State University) has been named TheMat.com Wrestler of the Week for December 14-20.

Robles outscored his opponents 71-3 en route to winning the Reno Tournament of Champions title at 125 pounds on Sunday in Reno, Nevada.

The Arizona State senior is 14-0 this season. He’s won nine matches by technical fall, two by fall and one by major decision. He is ranked No. 3 nationally.

Robles won his 100th career match after beating North Dakota State’s Trent Sprenkle 18-2 in the finals at Reno.

Robles is a two-time All-American. He placed fourth at the NCAA tournament in 2009 and seventh in 2010.
