SJS Hosts Annual Mat Invitational
|
| |
| SJS will host the 15th Annual Invitational Wrestling Tournament Saturday, featuring schools throughout California. |
| |
| SJS coach Terry Kerr's grapplers will vie with 11 other schools in the all-day event scheduled to start at 11 am. |
| |
| "I will be looking forward to seeing SJS wrestlers prove themselves at this tournament," first-year coach
Kerr commented. |
| |
| Each school will be limited to two men in each weight category. |
| |
| According to Kerr, Cal Poly-SLO has been strong in the past, but he warned that Chico, San Francisco, Humboldt
State, and California have formidable squads. |
| |
| The Spartans will field a full team, except for a couple of positions. |
| |
| At 118 pounds, Mark Rodriguez and Jeff Ulrich are slated to go. In the 126 class, Steve Baca and Greg Betts will
represent SJS. |
| |
| Oscar Trevino and Jeff Norcup are in the 134 category and Jim Lucas and Mike Cancilla are in 142. |
| |
| At 150 is Gary Pederson and Mike Walker, while Ray Jimenez is the lone competitor at 158 pounds. |
| |
| Another single weight representative is Tim Kerr at 167, as Dean Prescott and Pete Murchison go in at 177. |
| |
| Brad Anderson goes in alone at 190. |
| |
| Two injured Spartans, Dan Cabral and Hank Tillman will not be able to participate. |
| |
| The schools in the tournament are Chico State, UC Davis, California, Sonoma State, Hayward State, Cal Poly-SLO,
Fresno State, San Francisco State, Humboldt State, Long Beach State, Stanford, and SJS. |
