Under the leadership of a new coach, Mr. John Palmer, the matmen proved themselves a credit to C.A. The grapplers went undefeated throughout the season in the Finger Lakes League until they lost a close one the Geneva putting C.A. in second place in the league. The boys finished with 7 wins and 1 defeat in league competition and an overall record of 8 wins, 2 losses.

Individual honors went to: Tony Addante, who won Section 5 honors at 112 lbs., Gary Carpenter winning his second Finger Lakes Championship at 127 lbs., and Dick Davis and Ron Beaton, who were Finger Lakes runner-ups.

Our wrestlers, consisting mostly of Juniors, Sophomores, and Freshmen, should prove to be talk of the league next year. (Academian, 1963)
