    MacNaught named NSIC Wrestler of the Week

    Upper Iowa University senior C.J. MacNaught (Walton, N.Y.) was named one of two Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference Wrestlers of the Week today. The 174-pounder won all three of his matches for the Peacocks at the NWCA National Duals in Cedar Falls Saturday. MacNaught shared the NSIC honor with Tim Johns of Southwest Minnesota State.

    In Upper Iowa's 22-15 loss to #6 Ashland, MacNaught came through with an 8-5 decision over Clint Carmony. He recorded an 11-3 major decision win over Jesse Sheets in UIU's 19-19 tie with #18 Central Missouri State. MacNaught ended Saturday with a 16-8 major decision over UNC-Pembroke's Richard Alstrom. Upper Iowa defeated UNC-Pembroke 47-0.

    MacNaught is currently ranked sixth at 174 pounds in the recent Division II Wrestling Coaches Association rankings. Upper Iowa is 13th as a team.

    Upper Iowa is an affiliate member of the NSIC in wrestling this season and will be a full league member beginning in 2006-07. The Peacocks will travel to Aberdeen, S.D., to battle Northern State in a dual meet Friday at 7 p.m.

    Upper Iowa University, located in Fayette, is the only NCAA Division II institution in the state of Iowa.
