The whole procedure proved somewhat puzzling to the fans who found difficulty in following the scoring methods. The Bluejackets' chief rival was the Agricultural School of Grand Rapids. The local matmen, coached by George Schoonover, were the victors by the score of 20 to 15 over Grand Rapids in the initial match. In a return contest at Grand Rapids, the Jackets were defeated 21 to ll in a thrilling match, Then clashing in a rubber match, the Hibbing grapplers scored a 17-11 win over the Ag School. Eight members of the squad traveled to Mound to compete with eight other teams in the Regional Tournament. It was the first time Hibbing has been represented at a regional wrestling meet, and many Jacket entries drew champ- ions in the first rounds. Two Hibbing entries won their first match, but later competition proved too stiff, and the squad placed fifth. Wrestling enthusi- asts are hopeful that the sport will be continued in future years as interest has grown considerably.
