Coach Don Rice's junior-varsity squad, like their varsity counter-parts, had one of the finest wrestling seasons in the history of the school. Alisal finished off their season with a 10-21 won-loss-tie over-all record and a 8-1-1 league record, which gave them a second place in the Monterey Bay League south-division. ln league competition, the Trojans lost only once, and that was to Monterey. Alisal marked the opening of the season with an amazing 47-17 victory over the visiting Gilroy team. But it was in the following match that Alisal found its only non- league loss, 43-21, at the hands of the Gonzales' Spartans. As league competition got under way, Alisal easily raced by all of its opponents from the the M.B.L. north, But things didn't look bright for the eastsiders as cross-town Salinas threw a big scare into Alisal as the Cowboys battled it out to a 29-29 tie. The highlight of this contest was little 103 pounder Eddie Ramirez who pinned his Cowboy opponent with only 12 seconds elasping into the first period. Alisal then fought off a brazen North High attack, but in the following match against Monterey, the Trojans found their dual meet championship title hopes sunk by the Toreadors, Outstanding grapplers throughout the season were Paul Hilliker, Art Ocampo, Ken Peebles, Tom Way, Bob Nichols, and David Ceja. Terry Blizzard keeps his man down. l .ffl Art Ocampo, JV 98 pound wrestler.
