Paterno, Coach Phil Klaus BOMB SQU The past basketball season brought many, many exciting moments as well as many sad endings. This year's squad was ham- pered many times by the re- bounding strength of an op- posing big man - even though Pat Moynihan, along with Pete McCord, were always working hard under the boards. One of the highlights of the en- tire season came when we played Hollidaysburg at home. They came to Park Forest with a 16-1 record and we surprised them with an upset victory. Even though the regular season ended as a 6-8 record, the team had a lot to be proud of. They always represented the school in a fine manner when travel- ing, always worked hard to im- prove, and never gave up even though things at times looked dim.

This year's wrestling team start- ed the season off with two wins before falling to their last four opponents and placing fifth at the Clearfield Tournament. In- juries and other problems hurt the small squad. Five first string wrestlers were lost to injuries, another first stringer moved, and a few other people quit. The small number of wrestlers in each weight class also hurt the team's performance. Despite all the problems, the team endured and at the end of the season, with the encour- agement of Mr. Grove, the coach, and Mr. McWilliams, his assistant, the team began really to mature. Mr. Grove said that he really enjoyed working with the wrestlers, and because of the small size of the squad he got to know them better and was able to watch people reach new heights. Considering the number of injuries, Mr. Grove was quite pleased with the team's performance and called it a rewarding year. Standing. Coach Grove, C. Corbett, N. Fedon, T. Holmes, H. Berg, E.
