Grappling with gusto With a season record of 10 wins and 3 losses, the J.V. Wrestling team earned a third place standing in the Tri-Valley League. Coach Particia's boys placed first in Central Oneida County. Team captain Mike Mroczek's undefeated record of 15-0 led him to the title of Tri-Valley League Champ in the 145 pound class. Jim Hopkins earned the title of Tri-Valley League Champ in the 167 pound class. Strong personal wins and a united team effort helped the Varsity wrestlers to achieve a team record of eight wins and three losses, a new school record. The team also won the CNY Silver Division Wrestling Championship, held at MVCC. Mike Bauer was chosen as the most out- standing team member as a result of his having been the league champion in the 138 pound class. He also established a new record of 27 consecutive wins by an individual. Along with Jeff Beam, he was chosen a member of the All-Star Team. The key to the team's success, according to Coach Little, was strength in the middle class weights. When the team needed wins in a competition, those boys earned them. The team was able to earn a third place win in the Tri-Valley League. Captains Mark Could, Dennis Genge, and Mike Bauer aided Coach Little to mold this enthusiastic team Jgj i FRESHMAN WRESTLERS FRONT ROW: S. Buckingham, J. Herman, B. Deep, B. Usborne, S. O'Brien, K.
