The 1975-1976 Wrestling Squad began a New Era in Wildcat Wrestling. The Hard Work Pays Off' philosophy of Head Coach Paul Holdren made the ,Cats the team to beat in a year when they were supposed to be down. The Varsity placed very high in every tournament, sent four men to the State Finals' Meet, and had five individuals re- cord seasons' records of 25 wins or more, hence, earning them the Belt Buckle Award . They were Johnny Manual Sr., Capt., Anthony Johnson Sr., Capt., Greg Martin Jr., Sims Johnson Jr., and Harrell Milhouse, Soph. The Junior Varsity Team also annexed a new Coach in Robert Jones, who along with the many fine hard working Junior Varsity grapplers set many new standards of ex- cellence for future squads to attain. For the first time in the history of a city school a J.V. Varsity Wrestling team participated in 4 tournaments. They placed high at the Montrose Takedown Tournament, were unofficial champ- ions at the City Sophomore West, 7th at the Marlette In- vitational and won the Bentley Quad. They were led by Wendell White 15-1, Earnest Gibson 13-4, Willie Vickers 10-5, Stanley White 11-6, and Darnell Dantzler 12-5.
