BLOOMINGTON, Ill.- The Illinois Wesleyan University men's wrestling team opens College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin action when they welcome Millikin University to the Shirk Center Sunday, Nov. 8 at 2 p.m.

IWU opened the campaign at the Luther Hill Invitational where sophomore 133-pounders Tyson Zvonar (Frankfort, Ill.-Lincoln-Way East) and Brady Mouser (Bloomington, Ill.-Tri Valley) placed within the top-five. Zvonar secured a third-place finish with a 3-1 record that included two pins and one tech. Mouser went 2-2 by way of a major decision, earning fifth.

Millikin opens the season in Bloomington. Last season's CCIW runner-up defeated Illinois Wesleyan 45-3. The lone IWU win came from then-junior Austin Johnston (Normal, Ill.-Normal West) who defeated Nathan Barbee via a 18-13 decision at 141 pounds.
