Take Down! restling was the most strenuous and demanding sport in which Diamond Bar High School partic- pated. Wrestling demanded great physical and men- tal abilities. Wrestling is especially tough because you have to fight your opponent as well as yourself. You have to qualify for your weight division every match and it's really tough, exclaimed Larson Hahm. . This year's team was one of the strongest team we have ever hadf' commented Benny Lee. In order to make weight division, wrestlers worked out, ran, and starved or stuffed themselves. Wrestling was more of an individual sport than team sport. Teammates could only encourage one another on the sidelines. During competitions, only one wrestler was allowed on the mat with no one to rely on. Brian Pressley commented, It gets scary sometimes when you are out there alone. This year the team was one of the strongest teams we have ever had. We are strong in every weight category, and I think we'll do well this season, commented Benny Lee. The fine tradi- tion of Diamond Bar wrestling was certainly upheld by the l87-88 team. . EF: 2 67 131 TL-P ' .Via ' . L. - M 5- A SV 1-fQi.,JX:fff .
