We took nine wrestlers to the state tourna- ment, six of whom were first in the area. '4'::'.1'K73ll-

The Bulldogs had a double dual with Clarkston and Chamblee next on their schedule. They proved that they deserved to be ranked first by defeat- ing Clarkston 40-13, and Chamblee 33-26. Our boys then traveled the long distance to Rome for the West Rome Invitational Tournament. We did well individually with four first place win- ners, three second place winners, and two third place winners. Our luck was good but not good enough when the The North Metro Tournament held at Northside High School turned out to be a disappoint- ment. Our team placed second to Sprayberry. We did have three first place winners, two second places, and one fourth place. By this time everyone knew who Rockdale County was and that team came in second overall. The fol- lowing week we went to Towers High School for a dual meet and regained our status by defeating them 51-15, and then reassured ourselves by outs- coring Southwest DeKalb 38-14. flfltffl W LDITTIUVS- '1l ' we meant business. Our last two dual meets reas- sured us of our power. We met Briarcliff and shook them off 38- 15. Then Tucker stepped in to add to our list of wins by losing 32-17 to our men. Wrestling 137

Luck went our way at the Cobb County Civic Center. All of our wrestlers but one made it through the first round, starting us out with a good beginning for our team score. As each round progressed, our score rose. After the semi- finals Friday night, it was said that Rockdale had it all wrapped up. We had a score of 103.5, and our closest opponent was Clarkston with 70 points. Gene O'Kelley and Tony lVlcDonald wrestled in the consolations for third and fourth places, Gene getting 3rd and Tony 4th. Our team set a new state record by having five people in the finals. Robert Thornton and Ricky Webb were State Champions, and Scott Dennis, John Plavcan, and Antonio Thornton were runners-up. Our final team score was 125, another record breaker. Congratulations to Coach Spra- gue and wrestlers for their terrific job. Wrestling 139
