 Spartans Set For Bulldogs

 
It is a well-known fact among wrestling fans at SJSU that there is no love lost between the CSU Fresno Bulldogs and the Spartans. 
 
Saturday night the Spartans will be going for win number 14 as they tangle with CSU Fresno in a crucial PCAA match. 
 
"It's no secret that Fresno State is our top rival," said head coach Terry Kerr. "We will be looking for a tough match, no one will have an easy time on the mats." Kerr pointed to the Spartans' impressive record as an indicator to Saturday. 
 
"We have won our last 13 dual meets and i have got to believe that it will tell as the night wears on," Kerr said. 
 
Some of the better efforts should come from Dan Kida at 118 pounds. Kida has an outstanding record is ranked No. 1 in the state at 118. 
 
Oscar Trevino or Mitch Steinauer will be wrestling in the 126-pound class. 
 
Either Trevino or Steinhauer will be matched against Robert Arball, CSU Fresno's top contender. It should be the match of the night. 
 
George Jaegar or Mike Cunningham will have the task of grappling with Mike McGlough in the 150-pound class. McGlough is ranked No.2 in the state, and is a very formidable opponent. 
 
Rounding out the night's activities will be heavyweight Donnell Jackson. Jackson will be going after his third PCAA title, which has been within his reach the past two years. 
 
To conclude, Kerr made his feelings known, "We hate them (FSU), The officiating was poor last year and the fact that my team was docked one point because the referee though i was complaining too much irritated me. Jackson was fuming after last year's match because he lost a close decision to an opponent who stalled all the match and the referee did not warn him." 
 
Because this is the last dual meet of the season, all students will be admitted free. All other tickets will be $1.50 and will be available at the door. Match time is 7:30 pm.
