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.

Defending champion
East Rochester annexed its third straight Monroe County Individual
Wrestling championship meet yesterday, totaling 119 points, to
outdistance runnerup Rush-Henrietta with 99 at Sperry High School at
Rush-Henrietta.
Other team scores
were Spencerport 84, Irondequoit 68, Eastridge, 61, Penfield 59,
Pittsford 58, and Gates Chili 33.
The Bombers placed
two grapplers on the championship squad while the hosting Comets
finished with five. ER wrestlers on the team are Emedio Sebastian
and Mike Duffy. Henrietta placed
Al Solomon, Brian Campbell,
Dick Grubaugh, Mike
Underwood, and Sherman Graves.
Successfully
defending section 5 titles were Ernie DiBella
of Pittsford, Jim Nowak of
Eastridge, Roger Bubel of
Spencerport, and Sherman Graves of
Rush-Henrietta.
The Most Valuable
Wrestler trophy went to Grubaugh, who came back from a shoulder injury
last season to grab the 130-pound weight division. He downed previously
unbeaten Tom Gartland of
Spencerport in the finals.
Dibella captured
the trophy for most pins in the least amount of time when he registered
three falls in his four matches. He chalked up victories at the 1:15,
2:55, and 1:31 marks in his first three matches.
The Section 5
Class A meet will wrestle at Corning Community College next Saturday.
Monroe County will take the top three finishers in each weight bracket
for the first time in its history. Last season only the championship
team registered a sectional berth.
