Bankston, James Make Sta te After Tough Season lt's called praying with the eyes open! Varsity wrestling's first win against Ontario came late in the season but just added to the feeling of family which had developed throughout the season. One big family was Coach John Johnson's description of the whole squad, cheerleaders and statisticians included. We finished on the upswing in probably the toughest league in state, Johnson said. We had super kids. The three seniors - Jay Bryan, Joe Levesque, Dennis Gage - did a great job. And I foresee a great year coming up, Johnson continued. We wrestle the toughest league in the state, and always will face the perennial powers, Pendleton and LaGrande, he said. The squad came in third in four tournaments at the beginning of the season, and tied for second in the Aloha Tournament. The boys lost to Bend, Prineville, Crook County, LaGrande, Pendleton, Redmond, Baker, and Hermiston. They placed seventh at district out of nine schools. Local coaches started the Central Oregon Mat Club, and developed a 12- month program to keep the boys in top shape. Workouts were held at BHS and once a week some boys traveled to Redmond. One highlight was the gift of the wrestling board, given by Mike Brown's parents. It is a permanent fixture in the Commons and a handsome addition to the wrestling program. Johnson said the squad needed some light and heavyweights next year. Representing MV at state were Guy Bankston and Darrel James. Bankston placed fourth, James placed seventh.
