MCDO ALD MAKE RIGHT MOVES T0 CLAIM STATE C AMPIO SHIP State championships are rare oc- currences in any school. But Lee Mc- Donald proved that the task of be- coming a champ is not impossible, as he muscled his way to the heavyweight state championship in wrestling. To celebrate his accom- plishment, a caravan followed by an assembly welcomed him back home. I did my best, McDonald told his proud fans. In addition to clenching the state title, the Most Valuable Player had a record of 29-0-1 and led in pins with 23. ,, Finishing fourth in state competi- tion was Dave Clark C155 pound weight classy, and Vince DeMore was a state qualifier C105 pound weight classy. The team was real determined, third year coach John Ruhlig com- mented. Everyone felt this could be a good year and worked hard to prove it. First place finishes in the Edison and Gallon lnvitationals and an eighth place finish in the state dem- onstrated this dedication. In SBC ac- tion, the grapplers were runners-up to St. Mary's, making it the highest finish ever. Gus Walls C119 pound weight classj was conference champ for the fourth consecutive year - the first time for a wrestler to achieve this in SBC history. Walking off with special honors at the Winter Sports Banquet were Mark Butler QMost Improved Playerj and Gus Walls lHonary Captainj. The reserve squad ended its sea- son with 6 wins and 2 losses. 132 Wrestling if
