Olavarri Meet Pits Wrestlers
|
| |
| The first Martin Olavarri Memorial Tournament for college wrestlers from the Bay Area will begin tomorrow morning
at 10 in the Spartan Gym. |
| |
| The tourney is being co-sponsored by SJS and the Bay Area Wrestling Officials Association. According to Spartan
coach Hugh Mumby, if the meet is a success it will be made an annual event. |
| |
| Olavarri, who passed away last year, was a former standout wrestler for SJS and served as commissioner of the BAWOA. |
| |
| The home appearance by the Spartans will be their first since Dec. 5, when the San Jose State Invitational was
held. SJS finished sixth in a 17 team field last weekend in the Biola Tournament. |
| |
| Saturday's tournament is for individuals. No team trophy will be awarded. The meet will be a warmup for the Spartans'
PCAA championship meet which may be held next week in Fresno. |
| |
| The Olavarri Tournament is open to any individual as long as they compete for a college. |
| |
| Mumby may enter a team of 15, with two men in some weight classes. Freshman Don Jackson, a heavyweight, placed
highest for SJS last weekend with a second place effort which included pinning two foes in the Biola Tournament. |
