The wrestling team had a very slow start this year due to C.I.F. football participation. In spite of this, they finished up strong with five victories in dual meets and their second consecutive Pioneer League Cham- pionship. The Marauders had their work cut out for them as they faced their toughest opponent yet in three years. This was against Camarillo High, who had a five year winning streak until they met up with Miraleste. The Matmen just barely scratched out their win as they won by one point, twenty eight to twenty seven. In this match Joe Dean, Steve Barrett, Pete Zamfirescu, Jon Jackson, Bobby Whitaker, and Rick Mileham pinned their opponent or won by a fall. I Miraleste crowned seven league champions at the league tournament and these seven wrestlers led the way into the CIF sectional. Only two emerged from the sectional meet to advance to the finals. Steve Barrett at 130 lbs and Jon Jackson at 168 lbs led the Marauders to a fifth place finish in the final CIF stand- ings. A remarkable feat considering that these two wrestlers were the only entrants from our school. Steve Barrett became the first wrestler ever to win a CIF Championship as he won the 130 lb. title and Jon Jackson did an equally fine job as he placed third at 168 lbs.
