Winning two and losing seven of this year's matches the young wrestling team gained valuable experience. With only two varsity men from last year returning the team lacked the knowledge gained by doing. The Aurora West match provided the first victory for our grapplers. Pins by J. Oury and McCartney and wins by Spangler, M. Getty, Rockness, Nystrom, and Gieser provided a 27 to 21 win. Our wrestlers then lost to Riverside-Brookfield 26-22, Elgin 27-16, Palatine 24-11, and Oswego 35-18, despite pins by J. Oury and good hard wrestling by his teammates. In the Palatine Wrestling Tournament Jim and Bob Oury each won three matches to receive first place in their weight classes. McCartney and M. Getty each received third place by winning two and losing one. With six pins, two wins, and a tie our wrestlers beat Elmwood 38-11. Ken and Marv Getty, Jim and Bob Oury, Rockness, and Gieser pinned their men. The Warriors lost to Hinsdale 37-8, Downers Grove 30-18, and Oswego 37-6 to complete the dual matches. In the State Sectional Wrestling Tournament Jim Oury pinned his first two opponents. He won 2-0 in the semi-finals but lost 9-2 in the finals to place second in his weight which gave him the opportunity to go down-state.
