Crapplers earn 6-1 record

in a heated match against Castro
Valley, Arroyo's Dons lost a bid to cap-
ture the league crown for a fourth
consecutive season.

In the final match of the season at
San Lorenzo, Arroyo and Castro Valley
were tied 29-29. The Dons' Lance
Homen lost his match to his Trojan
opponent for the title. 'We had them
won, but we just didn't have the guts
to finish them off,' said Senior Rod
Shinko.

'The strongest part of our team was
the upper and middle classes,' said
Wrestler Mike Sommer. Sommer cre-
dited Shinko for contributing much to
the team as a first-year competitor.

Coached by Fred Indalacio, the Dons
finished the season with a 6-1 record,
while the Trojans ended with a 7-0
mark.

Strong members of the squad
included Seniors Larry Breyhan, Junior
DeHoyos, Eric Stout, and Sommer. 'We
had a young team this year, but eve-
ryone contributed everything they
had,' said Breyhan of his teammates.

Also playing a role in the champion-
ship meet was Arroyo's contention of
faulty referee calls. According to
DeHoyos, one faulty call occurred in
the last match when the referee
interrupted a Don takedown a-
ttempt.

North Coast qualifiers were deter-
mined at the league meet following
press time, but contenders included
Breyhan, Shinko, DeHoyos, and Stout.
