 Spartans Battle California Friday

 
     
  Fresh from their recent triumph in Oakland where they won the team title in the Far Western meet, San Jose State's wrestlers will meet the University of California matmen in the local gym Friday night.

The meet will be the first dual competition of the 1943 season for the Spartans. Previous to this they had to be content with inter-squad meets. The Far Western tourney was their "acid" test, and they proved themselves the team to reckon with in this area.

Friday night's competitors gave the Spartans the most trouble in the Oakland meet. The Bears took second place honors. Spartan coach Sam Della Maggiore expects them to press his charges heavily again Friday.

Expected to win points for the locals will be Paul Borg, Tony Sota, Ralph Vick, Hans Wiedenhofer, and John Dahl. Borg and Wiedenhofer won Far Western titles in their divisions, while Sota and Vick were eliminated in the finals.
