Top Wrestling Squads At Island Tournament |
||
| Spartan wrestlers face the toughest competition of their young season tonight and Saturday when they travel to
Mare Island and face the area's finest junior college and collegiate teams. SJS coach Hugh Mumby plans to send ten grapplers to the Mare Island Invitational, which will be the Spartans' second big meet this season. Last weekend, SJS placed fifth in the Northern California wrestling championships. Loren Miller, Ron Matheson and Gary Scardina lead the group of SJS grapplers that will battle at Mare Island. Matheson and Scardina placed second in the NorCal matches while Miller took a third. Jim Bridger and Rich Popejoy also wrestled their way to a third place finish in last weekend's meet. Other Spartan grapplers making the trip to Mare Island are Dennis Runyon, Dan Swenson, Joe Silva, Mike Herschfelt, and Paul Hatling. Because of a kilos weight system, wrestlers will be classified into 125.5, 138.5, 154, 171.5, 191.5, and 213.5 weight divisions. Among the squads tabbed to battle the SJS matmen for the team title are California and Fresno State. The Bulldogs from Fresno grabbed second at the NorCal championships. Junior college contingents that are expected to make their presence felt are Foothill, Diablo Valley, Chabot, and San Mateo. Wrestling squads from Mare Island, Moffet Field, Treasure Island, and the San Francisco Olympic Club will also participate. |
