York, Pa -
WRESTLING, a sport that goes back to the
arenas of the ancient Greeks,
has
proved that it is firmly installed in the hearts of many York County fans as the
West York High School gymnasium
was filled to capacity to view the York County
Sectional Wrestling Tournament Saturday afternoon and evening.
High school
wrestlers
from all York County Wrestling League members put their heart and soul into
their maneuvers
with the result being several upsets and quite a few heart-breakers.
Randy Miller, York Vo-Tech trounced
previously unbeaten John Stough, Dallastown 6-1,
in the
145lb. class. Bill Trostle, heavyweight of South Western, lost to
Jeff Mitchell of
Dallastown, 7-4.
In the finals, Dallastown and West York dominated the championships.
Six
of the Wildcats and five of the Bulldogs won titles. Next in line was Spring Grove
with three. There was no official team
champion in this year's sectionals since two
men in each weight class advance to the Districts.
▪
("Unofficial Team Scoring" had West York 1st with 85 points
and Dallastown 2nd
with 82 points)
