The grap- piers finished with a seasonal record of 10-11-1 in dual meet competition. However, due to numerous close meets the team felt that they had a better season than the record would indicate. Princeton's varsity matmen started the season off with a dou- ble victory over Streator and Polo. The team then suffered a defeat at the hands of a very capable Rochele team. After easily overpowering Peoria Heights, the team suffered two defeats, both by a narrow margin, to Chili and L-P. The Mendota meet, which ended in a 27-27 deadlock, was fol- lowed by three consecutive victories. The Freeport and Alleman wrestling squads proved to be too much for the Tigers to handle, Our grapplers suf- fered severely at the hands of both. The remainder of the season was divided into an even number of wins and losses. , Under the able leadership of Coach Steve Todd, the Frosh-Soph team finished with an excellent 15J dual meet record. Todd's matmen also did well in- dividually. Dennis Michaels, Dale Anson, and Dan Hopper won 3rd place spots at the Sophomore NCIC. Jim Ellis, Steve Hartwig, and Tim Conkling placed 4th. Dan Hopper took home a 1st place from the East Peoria Tournament, a very challeng- ing tourney. Other places won were D le Anson 2nd, Jim Ellis 2nd. Tim Conkling 3rd, and Bob Senior Wrestlers.
