Grapplers Go For Gusto The 1982-83 wrestling team was considered a very competitive group. The varsity wrestling team had 3 wins and 5 challenging losses. Wrestling this year was extremely tough for a few of our wrestlers. The team may not have been as big as others, but the coach taught alot about the sport. The coach was Craig Place, who has been head coach for 3 years. The GMHS team had many individuals that were assets to the team such as David Hoffsch- neider. Mike Pijanowski, Tom Novo- sel, Bill Peters, Tery Detwiler, and Brad Christiansen. They achieved many points and success together, and team enthusiasm was theirs. Place said the Arvada West Tournament, held on January 15, was the bes tournament GMHS wrestled. The Golden match was considered by Place to be the most exciting and the most well-played match of the season.

Matmen Master Skills The Junior Varsity wrestling team's most successful match was the Regis Quadrangle. They had tough competi- tion during the tournament, but ended being one of the best teams there. The J.V. team participated in three tourna- ments, Regis Quadrangle, Jefferson Tournament, and J.V. Districts. Of the three, the Regis Quadrangle was the most triumphant. The J.V. wrestlers were very competitive and enthusias- tic, influenced by the varsity wrestlers. The team got along well together, which is why they were so intense at the matches! Tim Rual was considered by Craig Place, coach, as the best player on the Junior Varsity team. Next year should be one of the best, GMI-IS has ever had. The Freshmen wrestling team was extremely victorious this year. They had a season record of 3-1. Even the one loss was a close match of 33-37. These young grapplers are going to be one of the Schoolis best wrestling teams in years to come. Their best match was against Arvada, which they triumphantly won by 40 points. Place commented that there were four fresh- men wrestlers who had the best quali- ties for the sport. They were Tom Boos, Chris Michaels, Tom Jamison, and Jack Miller. With these were wres- tlers competing the way they did this year and with the success of the other wrestling teams, GMHS is going to have the West wrestlers in the state in best wrestlers in the state in future years. w unhw .44-,if L' 7-MM Brian Keiser puts a headlock on a Golden opponent, 172 - Wrestling l l Greg Bublitz gives all his strength to turn over his competitor.
