Pinning down a winning season lf someone wants to look toward the future of PPHS sports, cast more than a glance at the junior varsity CJ.V.D wrestling team. A The wrestlers were determined to be E number one, a goal that is not easy to l attain. The Patriot wrestling team has had for many seasons, a reputation for being a winning team and this seemed to make the new and up coming players to work even harder. Keeping winning a tradition is harder than working your way up. The J.V. wrestlers in previous seasons have won many honors. They have been county champions for three years in a row. To obtain these positions, the team, along with Coach Pete Collins and Coach Tim Hinz, put in long hours of practicing moves such as, switches cradles and nelsons. Also the team worked on improv- ing techniques and working out to just keep in shape. Yet with perseverance and team pride these young men formed a solid nucleus for a winning squad and a group of athletes to be reckoned with now and in the future. TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT, could well describe is a close contact sport and often finds the wr Trevor Caufman's match with his opponent. Wrestling uncomfortable positions. 1901 JV WRESTLING
