Spartans Edge YMCA |
||
| Coach Ted Mumby's sensational SJS Spartan wrestling squad continued its winning ways as the Spartans edged the
San Francisco Central YMCA 20-8 last night in the Men's Gym. Revenge ws sweet for Billy Rodman and team captain Ray Miser as they both defeated their opponents who previously bested them. There were a total of nine matches. Two were exhibitions with Mel Bruno, former Spartan great featured in a match with Ralph Payne. The Spartans led from the first match as Billy Rodman won by default from Walt Schafer who was injured after a close and hard fought battle. Our boys increased their lead to ten points in the second match when captain Ray Miser pinned Don Scrimger of SF after two minutes and 35 seconds. In one of the better matches of the evening, Pat Felice decisioned George Ehling in a close 165 pound match. This match was really close and was undecided until the final minutes of the bout. In the second exhibition match of the evening, Dan Osteen of SJS pinned Joe Clay of San Francisco in 46 seconds in the fastest match of the meet. San Francisco won the final two bouts which were thrilling all the way. Oscar Brunetti pinned Bob Cooper near the end of their match after Cooper had put up a terrific defensive battle. In the close heavyweight match, Ed Epting San Francisco edged Keith Wilson in another great defensive struggle. The Spartans meet the strong Berkeley YMCA here either next Monday or Wednesday evening. The Spartans have now won 3 dual meet and one tourney. C.M. Jack Ritchie refereed the matches. He is a former 112 pound Far Western champion. |
