FROSl-lf90Pl-l- WRESTLING .XJ The Independence Frosh!Soph Wrestling Team dominated the league and surrounding leagues this year as they came away with the team championship at the Gilroy Tournament, a 2nd at the Silver Creek Tournament, placing ahead of any team in this area, and 2nd at the Andrew Hill Tournament, placing four cham- pions, more than any other school in the league. Their over all dual meet record was 8-1, los- ing only to Ayer on a questiona- ble H.W.T. match. This year's team was loaded with outstanding sophomores: Robert Gonzales, Bob Deckman, Frank Salas, Phil Lucero, Steve Krygier, and Ken james. Each one of these gentlemen placed either 1st or 2nd at tournaments and were undefeated in the league. Although each individual per- formed well, Bob Deckman at 127 lbs. was the most dedicated and consistent winner. Bob's record was 21-2-1 this sea- son. ln tournaments he was 3-rd at Santa Teresa, 1st at Gilroy and Sil- ver Creek and 2nd at the Andrew Hill Tournament. His dual meet record was 8-0-1. These are impressive statistics, yet more impressive is that Bob wrestled the last half of the year with a fractured nose, which attributed to his only losses this year. - Coach Rojas l k,QT3l5553',x Back.
