Experience Gained Through Wrestling Shanks' wrestling program, which entered its second year, proved a favorite for football players in the off-season. Daily practice sessions under the supervision of Coach Harold Kelly helped to produce a powerful and well-trained group of ath- letes. The team faced few opponents in scheduled meets, but the practice and knowledge of wrestling provided a great deal of practical experience. Ten classes made up the team, ranging from 101-227 pound class to the unlimited weight class. Qualifications for being on the team were keeping a good grade point average, being able to wrestle within a specified weight class and a desire to work to achieve perfection. Freddie Andrews scuffles fo try fo gain a pin. Earnest McMillian puts everything he has into winning a match. Wrestling Team Members are Front Row Darryl Lyons. John Shipp. Tony Griffin. Micheal Russ. Cecil Barrow, and Terrance Simmons. Back Row Coach Kelly. Chris Griffin. Freddie Andrews. Anthony Jackson. Raymond Ward and Earnest McMillian. 74
