Five sopho- mores placed fourth or better in the Novice Tourna- ment at Southfield High School. The biggest upset was at 155 pound weight class, sophomore John Woo- mer took a first. He was not even expected to place in this tourney. Next year the grapplers will have seven lettermen returning to lead the team. Surpris- ingly enough three of the lettermen are sophomores. Next year may prove to be one of the most profit- able years in the Maple grapplers history. For next year the wrestling team will have a new wrestling room over the locker room that is being built. Other things they will be receiving are a new mat and new meet uniforms.
