One after the other, the West freshmen shred their way to victory. This year's outstanding performance by the freshmen wrestlers was highlighted by their Bay League championship. Though the JV season wasn't quite so successful, several wrestlers were proved promising .t for future seasons. The freshmen were led by Scott Henman 622-2-ll, Chip Royce C21-S5l, Bobby Chung 119-17, Don Aichroth Q21-55, and I-sung Yang 120-55 who all posted more than 20 wins this season. The performance of these wrestlers led the freshmen team to an uncontested 10-0 record in dual meet competition, and they won 4 of the 6 tournaments they went to, including the tough Simi Valley tournament. The freshmen team also beat Torrance High twice in dual meets. Coach Kyle Onaga felt that his team's strong results were due to the fact that they worked hard and deserved every bit of their success. The JV team, coached by Terry Fischer, struggled this season after 4 previous Bay League champions quit. With several spots filled by the freshmen, the JV team went on to Mn league duals over South and Rolling Hills afnd placed several wrestlers in the league meet. The JV team was led by sophomores Chris Madison, Aaron Ritenour, Joe Miles, and Chris Hammond. Though Coach Fischer was somewhat disappointed by the JV's performance, he had high hopes for next years team. tt Copy by Tonn Cunningham Higgiissraaaegsegv llll Layout by Torm Cunningham . .,.. ,, L, ,,. i. ,, gEQigiaw ,..,.,.,., ...... , MW alma -i.... - Q 1 Photos by Cine Furuya, S - Ch L. ...,.. .... ..... 2 'i'i L' en ff' fi ..... . ,,..,... . , ,.,..,....
