Win First Sectional For CHS The CHS Wrestling Team under the coaching of Ed Fox, conquered most of its foreseeable problems and acquired a brilliant season full of outstanding vic- tories! Thoughts of a second ACAC cham- pionship were shattered after the second meet of the season when the Chargers lost a hard-fought contest to Adams Central. Thoughts of a successful season were not shattered, however. The team went on to win the next four meets and capture first place at the East Noble Invitational. Defeat came for the second and last time at the Harding gym. Then five vic- tories followed with the season ending in a 10-2 record. In the ACAC Tourney, the Chargers relinquished their crown to Adams Cen- tral but still finished a respectable second. The true highlights of the season came when the CHS Wrestlers took: first place at the East Noble Sectionals, sending six to Regionals; fifth place at the Fort Wayne Regionals, sending Ron Wells to State; and 36th place at State, with Wells taking fourth in his weight class, 126 pounds.
