The 174-pounder from Bethel Park, Pa., brought the trophy back to Pitt for the fourth time in five years, following Tyler Nauman (2009), Anthony Zanetta (2010) and Max Thomusseit (2011) in being named the conference’s best first-year wrestler.
Bonaccorsi qualified for the NCAA championships in his debut season thanks to his EWL title at 174 pounds, and he finished with a 19-9 overall record.
