Hogshead broke one school record this year by running the 2 mile run in 11:09. He was voted the Most Valuable player. Bob Reagan was named the Most Improved runner.

Inexperience Handicaps Matmen Clendora wrestling will have a new look next year. This was a building year for us and next year Glendora Tartans should see a good wrestling team, commented Coach Rich Woods about the varsity team. The wrestlers ended the season 2-ll in league play. The team's hardest loss came against La Puente when the Tartans were defeated 40-28. 'clt was a disappointing loss, commented Coach Woods. A largely inexperienced team this year handicapped the varsity's efforts. Gnly ,two seniors and six juniors wrestled, while 26 sophomores made the team this year. Some of the outstanding wrestlers were: Jim Walker, Bruce Quarter, Dave Verrico, Mike Carpenter, Tadd Rickel and Kelley Algeo. Coach Woods was assistcfl this ycar by Mr. Scott Batie.
