ArmDrag.com is looking for volunteers to help populate the Archives.
We're not only looking for results, but tournament brackets, photos, and
articles as well. Many college and public libraries have microform copies
of complete newspapers dating back over 100 years. In them, you can find
lots of wrestling results. If you enjoy doing research, and you have some time,
make a trip to the library and check it out. Ask a librarian how to get
started and how to print out the articles that you find.

Coach George Messinger's Oakfield-Alabama Central School wrestlers
shaded Alexander Central in the annual Genesee-Orleans wrestling
tournament staged on Oakfield mats Saturday night.
The Oaks turned in 63 points while Alexander had 59, the State
School for the Blind 16, Kendall 11 and Alden 9. Alexander had been
favored going into the finals, the A's having had the best record
for the year, including a pair of wins over Oakfield.
Oakfield-Alabama wrestlers won six matches and will send that number
of men to the sectionals in Rochester on Saturday. Alexander grabbed
five first places while the remaining spot went to the State School
for the Blind.
Edmond Crane, Batavia sports promoter, presented a cup to
Oakfield-Alabama Central for its team victory. Individual medals
were given to winners of the first and second places in the
tournament.
Fastest win of the night was chalked up by Oakfield's Gerald Scroger
in the 133-pound class when he pinned Warren Snyder of Kendall in 47
seconds. William Hagen of Oakfield-Alabama won the 175-pound title
by default after James Seward of Alexander Central suffered a broken
collarbone in their match. |
