Spartan Wrestlers Grapple San Diego
|
| |
| Coach Hugh Mumby's varsity grapplers meet San Diego State College Friday at 7:30 pm in the Spartan mat room. |
| |
| It will be the first competition since Dec. 12 for the Spartans when they dropped a 21-10 decision to a powerful
San Francisco Olympic Club. |
| |
| The SJS matmen opened the season by capturing the Northern California Intercollegiate Tournament Dec. 9, beating
a 14-team field. |
| |
| The Spartans suffered a tough blow last week when it was learned that the 147-pound SJS ace, Leroy Stewart, would
be lost to the team for the rest of the season. |
| |
| Coach Hugh Mumby said that Stewart is suffering from an aggravation of an old neck injury. The results of a medical
examination indicated that it would be inadvisable for Stewart to compete, he said. |
| |
| Stewart was a titlist in the NCI tournament and one of the SJS club's top performers. |
| |
| Expected to take up the slack for the SJS grapplers are Paul Hodgins, recent winner in the 191-pound division of
the UCLA Invitational tournament, Ron Ruscigno (177), Bob Lopez (137), and Cliff Olson (157). |
