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 High posted 105 points to win its 10th annual* wrestling tournament
last night at Eastridge.
McQuaid was second with 75½ points followed by Madison with 65, Edison Tech with
55½, Greece Athena 52½ and Ithaca with 35.
The Lancers had six individual winners. The Lancers' Dave Polsinelli was named
the outstanding wrestler of the tournament. He decisioned Tom Corbet of Greece
Athena, 5-2. Corbet had beaten Polsinelli in a dual match three weeks ago, by a
3-2 decision.
His brother, Jim, won the 126-pound class with a 5-3 decision over Frank
Martello of Athena, who was second in the Monroe County Tournament last year in
the 126-pound division.
Jeff Freedman won the 145-pound class with a 17-2 decision over Ken Goings of
Madison, Rick Coffaro scored a 10-0 decision over John Dutko of McQuaid in the
155-pound class, Parker Corts won the 167-pound class by a 6-2 decision over
John Walters of McQuaid and Ed Joseph topped the 177-pound class decisioning
Steve O'Hara of McQuaid, 14-8.
Eastridge was defending champion and had won four previous tournaments.
* NOTE: The D&C wrote that it's the 10th annual tourney, but since the first one
was in 1962, this would be the 11th annual tourney.
