ADA — The Ohio Northern wrestling team enjoyed another successful season as it posted its third consecutive winning season under 29th-year head coach Ron Beaschler in 2016-17.
The Polar Bears were 11-4 overall and posted a 4-2 record in the Ohio Athletic Conference, finishing third in the conference standings.
Northern saw three athletes earn All-Conference honor during the 2016-17 campaign.
Sophomore Gavin Nelson (Oregon/Clay) and freshman Nate Barcaskey (Moon Township, Pa./Moon Area) each earned First Team All-OAC honors, while junior Seth Meyer (Defiance) was named Second Team All-OAC for the Polar Bears.

Ohio Northern University has been designated a “Voter Friendly Campus” by the Voter Friendly Campus initiative, which encourages college students to participate in the political process.
ONU is part of a select group of universities nationwide to earn this honor and one of only eight campuses in Ohio.
Ron Zimmerly, Liberty National Bank president and CEO, recently testified in the Ohio House Financial Institutions, Housing, and Urban Development Committee in opposition to House Bill 67.
This bill would only permit the use of cognovit notes for monetary default on commercial lending contracts, thus removing a safety net that allows lenders to mitigate some of the risk taken on these high-dollar loans.
Zimmerly’s testimony emphasized that the use of a cognovit note, or confession of judgment, is used only as a last resort option and must be valid, justifiable, and within legal reason for a judge to approve the request to call the loan.
