Chris Burdge of Centenary College of New Jersey
has been named d3wrestle.com Freshman of the Year for 2010-2011.

According to the amateur wrestling website devoted to NCAA Division III, Burdge, a 157-pound freshman, earned his starting spot in the Centenary lineup late in the season... but made an impact by upsetting the No. 2 seed in the Metro Conference tournament to make the finals. As a conference runner-up, the Newton, N.J. native earned a wildcard slot at the 2011 NCAA Division III Wrestling Championships. At the NCAAs in La Crosse, Wis., Burdge pinned the top-seeded Derek Brenon of Ithaca, advancing to the quarterfinals. After a close loss to eventual champ Dan Twito of the Merchant Marine Academy, Burdge defeated conference foe Eduardo Delgado of Hunter to place eighth in the 157 weight class, and earn All-American honors in his first year of college competition.
Burdge is a graduate of Kittatinny High School in New Jersey, where compiled a 127-19 career high school record. He is one of three returning qualifiers on a Centenary team that finished in 13th place at the NCAA Championships and is the defending Metro Conference team champions.
