Wrestlers To Battle FSC Today
|
| |
| The Spartan wrestling team meets its toughest test of the season today when it travels to Fresno for an 8:00 pm
dual match. |
| |
| Last Friday and Saturday, the Spartans participated in the Mare Island Invitational and came through with a second
place finish behind, you guessed it, Fresno State. |
| |
| It was Fresno State that took first place honors at the San Jose Invitational held Dec. 2. In that tourney, the
Spartans earned a 7th place finish. |
| |
| The Fresno Bulldogs hold a consecutive win string of three over the Spartans --- something that no other team can
claim --- so there will be an added incentive for SJS coach Hugh Mumby's wrestlers. |
| |
| Mumby cites four FSC wrestlers who will furnish the toughest opposition for the Spartans. They are Ron Moran, Steve
Niles, Mike Gallego, and Frank Kirby. |
| |
| Spartan stalwarts include L.Q. Starling (115), Loren Miller (152) who was named the "most outstanding wrestler"
in the Mare Island Invitational, Jim Bridger (167), and Joe Acquino (hwt). |
| |
| Rounding out the lineup will be Bob Bailey (130), Steve Volmer (137), John Wallbrink (145), Dave Allen (160), and
Roger McClaughry (177). |
| |
| This will be the final match for the Spartans until Jan. 5 when powerful San Diego State comes to town. And then
on Jan. 6, UCLA, one of the top-rated wrestling teams in California, will battle SJS in Spartan Gym. |
