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.

Eastridge's First Undefeated Wrestling
Team
This
year our Lancer Matmen accomplished an unblemished season with a
16-0 record. As winners of both the Webster and Eastridge
Christmas tournaments, they brought real excitement back to
Eastridge wrestling.
Even the
mightiest teams fell to the Lancers such as Pioneer, the
powerful Section VI team who had lost only once in three years,
Spencerport, who hadn't been beaten in four years by any school,
and East Rochester, who is always tough. This was truly the best
team ever to hit the mats from Eastridge.

Individual records were impressive: Roy
Spring, 17-8; Jim Polsinelli, 24-1-1; Dave Polsinelli, 24-2; Jim
Prince, 20-6; Rick Lembo, 20-5; Jeff Freedman, 24-1-1; Rick
Coffaro, 19-3; Parker Corts, 20-2; Ed Joseph, 17-4; and the
mighty heavyweight Brad Roth, 16-1-1. (Eastridge
