Columbia High's wrestling team in
its third year of existence, proved to
be one of the most exciting events
during the winter season.

Taking away most of the glamour
from the depressing basketball sea-
son, the upstart grapplers finished
with their first winning season.
Their young and enthusiastic Coach
Art Holiday, equipped his team with
new uniforms. For the first time in
their existence the wrestling team
was fortunate enough to have home
matches too.

The most surprising element of all
was the enthusiasm and fan support
the wrestlers received. During every
154 Wrestling
home match the stands were packed
with students cheering the wrestlers
on to better efforts.
