After last weekend’s split, coach Ed Vatch wants his wrestlers aiming for a winning week. And there will be plenty of target practice with four meets over a six-day span.

NIU travels to Chicago Friday to face Drake in a 3:30 p.m. dual followed by a 5 p.m. contest against host Chicago State. NIU will host Central Missouri State Sunday at 5 p.m and Eastern Illinois Wednesday at 7:30 at Chick Evans Field House.

NIU stands at 6-8 after dropping a 47-2 decision to eighth-ranked Northern Iowa before rebounding with a 24-23 win over Southern Illinois-Edwardsville.
