    Schlatter named Big Ten Wrestler of the Week

    Sophomore C.P. Schlatter has been named Big Ten Wrestler of the Week after helping lead Minnesota to victories over No. 7 Iowa State and No. 19 Nebraska. Schlatter won both of his matches to improve to 16-2 overall and 7-0 in the dual meets.

    Last Friday vs. the Cyclones, Schlatter upset top-ranked Trent Paulson, 5-4, at 157 pounds. It was the first time a Minnesota wrestler had defeated a top-ranked wrestler in a dual since Jacob Volkmann upset Tyrone Lewis of Oklahoma State on Feb. 22, 2004. Schlatter added a 12-5 decision against Nebraska's Chris Oliver on Sunday.

    The Golden Gophers are now 7-0 on the season and climbed to No. 2 in the latest W.I.N. Magazine rankings. Minnesota is off until it travels to Greensboro, N.C., for the Southern Scuffle on Dec. 29-30. The Golden Gophers will host Arizona State at the Sports Pavilion on Tuesday, Jan. 3.
