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.

With only four seniors
and four juniors on the varsity team, many weight classes were filled with
determined freshmen and sophomores. Highlighting the season was a second place
team finish in the Pavilion Tournament where Custy Panetta
and Tom White finished as tourney
champions. Other finalists included Pete White,
Larry Seil, John Pegoni,
John Salva, and Scott Pavone.
Pete White also finished second in the
Greece Christmas Tourney. Through hard work and dedication more victories will
swing Mooney's way in the future.

Coach Moriarty and Coach Dumbleton.
Both Scott Pavone and Steve Klein

and Steve Klein were finalists in the tough Brockport tourney. Mooney's biggest
thrill came when they dominated the J.V. City-Catholic tourney with seven
wrestlers in the finals out of a possible thirteen. Mooney had five first place

(145), John Reitano
(155), Scott Pavone (167), Tom
