BETHLEHEM, Pa. – Lehigh women's wrestling swept the National Wrestling Coaches Association's Region 2 postseason awards, announced March 20. Audrey Jimenez was named Region 2 Wrestler of the Year and Aubre Krazer was named Region 2 Rookie of the Year.
Both Mountain Hawks earned All-America honors while leading Lehigh to a sixth place finish at the inaugural NCAA Women's Wrestling Championships, March 6-7 in Coralville, Iowa.
Jimenez won the national championship at 110 pounds, earning the tournament's Outstanding Wrestler award in the process. The Tucson, Arizona native also won the NCAA's Most Dominant Wrestler Award for a 2025-26 season in which she went 21-0 with seven falls and eight technical superiority victories. Every one of Jimenez's wins this past season came with bonus points.
Krazer went 24-1 in her true first-year campaign, placing third at the NCAA Championships at 131. She finished with four falls and 11 technical falls among her 24 victories. In December, Krazer won the 131-pound title at the Ken Kraft Midlands Championships. Early in the season, Krazer also won a title at the prestigious Bill Farrell Memorial International in New York.
Jimenez and Krazer both also won regional titles for the Mountain Hawks, as Lehigh won the team title at the inaugural Super Regional 2 meet in February in West Liberty, W. Va.
