Priorities pinned Strong, experienced wrestlers caused constant changes in the Varsity Wrestling Team's line-up during their season. Competition was tight for starting positions, and before every meet, wrestle-offs were held to determine who would participate in meets. Adjusting to a new coach was not a problem for the team. Chuck Harris had coached at Marshall previously, and knew some of the older wrestlers. Rookies rapidly adapted as they familiarized themselves with the coach and the team. Conditioning exercises in the fall helped wrestlers prepare for the coming winter season. Workouts and running put prospective grapplers in shape for the strenuous competition to come. Opening the season with a victory over Groveton, the wrestler's future looked good. A temporary losing streak followed, but the team quickly picked up and pulverized Oakton. Suffering minimal injuries, the individual wrestlers improved over the season. Despite the several losses, the wrestlers were content with the outcome of the season.
