MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. – All in all, a good weekend for the Central Michigan wrestling team.

And a very good weekend for Austin Severn.

Severn, CMU’s 197-pounder, took a 4-3 decision from Shawn Scott on Sunday at McGuirk Arena to highlight the Chippewas’ 33-6 victory over Northern Illinois in a Mid-American Conference dual.

The win lifted CMU to 5-2, 3-2 MAC, and it came two days after the 17th-ranked Chippewas dominated Old Dominion, 28-9, in another MAC dual. The Chippewas won 15 of 20 matches in the two duals, and collected 30 takedowns while allowing just eight.
