Matmen Lose Miller
|
| |
| Coach Hugh Mumby's SJS wrestling squad suffered a severe loss between semesters. The Spartans, in dropping a 35-3
match to Oregon State at Corvallis, also lost the services of their top wrestler Loren Miller, who dislocated his
shoulder. |
| |
| The 152-pound senior's record of 15 consecutive match victories this season came to a halt when he was forced to
default to his opponent. |
| |
| Miller, who sat out last year's season because of an injured knee, was considered by Mumby to have an excellent
chance to place high in the NCAA finals. |
| |
| The 22-year-old grappler was gunning for his third NCAA tournament when the injury occurred. In 1965 as a sophomore,
he placed 7th in the 145-pound class. The following year he won his opening round match in the same weight division,
but was eliminated in the second round. |
| |
| Mumby said, "It is unfortunate that we should lose a competitor of Miller's ability. His loss leaves L.Q.
Starling as our most consistent performer." |
