The University of California will play host for the PCI wrestling championships Friday and Saturday this week in
Berkeley.
Spartan coach Ted Mumby has entered an eight man team headed by Fred Albright and Pat Felice. The rest of the squad
includes George Lao, Tom Payne, Sam Lawson, Jim Eliot, Don Foster, and Phil Bray. Both Albright and Felice have
qualified for the final Olympic Games trials to be held in Ames, Iowa, in May.
The following schools have entered teams: UCLA, California, Stanford, Cal Poly, SJS, Washington, and Washington
State.
San Diego State, champion last year, will not defend. The 14th district Olympic trials are being held there this
weekend. Three Spartans, John Jackson, Bill Wardrup, and Ralph Payne, will attempt to qualify again from that district.
The Spartans finished second last year, Though minus Jackson, Wardrup, and Payne, the team has still more than
an outside chance for the title. |
