    Silva named NCC Wrestler of the Week

    St. Cloud State University sophomore Sonny Silva, a graduate of Kimberly H.S. and resident of Kimberly, Idaho, has been named the North Central Conference Wrestler of the Week.

    Silva, a sophomore 133-pounder from Kimberly, Idaho, went 4-0 last week. He defeated Upper Iowa's Jacob Pederson twice, the first time was a 13-4 major decision in a dual and a 11-7 in the first round of the Moco Mercer Tournament. He continued in the tournament by defeating Mat Hemry with a pin at 5:48 in the semifinals before downing Chad Vallone with a 10-2 major decision in the finals.

    A transfer from Dana College, Silva has a 16-9 record for the Huskies this season. He currently leads the team with 16 wins this season. As a team, SCSU is under the leadership of first-year coach Steve Costanzo with a 3-5 dual match record.

    SCSU competes at the NCAA Division II level in the always rugged North Central Conference. SCSU has an enrollment of 16,000 and its campus is located about one hour northwest of Minneapolis-St. Paul in the city of St. Cloud, Minn.
