Hornets reach for heaven, catch a star For years Beech Grove ' s mat men have been striving for one supreme goal, a state wresthng championship. During this season, our grapplers built up a fine 11-2 record in ant- icipation of what was to come. In the newly formed CSAC, Central Subur- ban Athletic Conference, the Hor- nets won a hard fought battle, and a much deserved 1st place title. The hopes of Beech Grove ' s first Sectio- nal Title were dwindled away by a mere IV points. But Coaches Bane and McNamara ' s fired up Hornets went to the state regional with 7 county high entries, they then walked away with our school ' s first regional championship. With 4 grapplers advancing to the fmals, suddenly a dream became real- ity. Something Coaches Bane and McNamara and their team had built for nearly 5 years was within their grasp. As throughout all of the season, our 4 state contestants, Ralph Ed- wards-98, Gary Pierson-119, Mark Cruse-132, and Larry Ogden-185, were supported by a huge crowd of Hornet backers. As the day went on, much joy and disappointment fell upon the shoulders of the Coaches. The first place score between Beech Grove and a powerful returning state champ, Bloomington, was like that of a see-saw. When the evening consolation started we had 2 men. They were vying for third and fourth places. Mark went first and came out with a fourth place title adding a point. Larry went next and came out third, giving up 2 more points. Ralph was first on the mat and put us back on top as he became Beech Grove ' s first state champ, finishing up a fine prep career. Soon after BG ' s first state titlist Gary followed with a fine perform- ance. The hopes of a state champion- ship slipped through our grasp with the ticking of the clock and the slap of the mat. The Hornet ' s impossible dream— turned reality was smashed by the defending state champions, Bloomington, who beat out the Hor- nets by a half point, a mere half point. A great deal of recognition and credit is deserved by Coach Bane and Coach McNamara who helped to de- velop our fine reserve squad as well as varsity. To the coaches and the 1971-72 wrestling team, we salute you for your many long hours of hard work, and congratulate you for your many accomplishments. i«
