Matmen set
By DAVE MORRIS
Collegian Sports Writer
The Penn State matmen,
along with 13 other wrestling
teams, start a second season
of sorts, this Friday and Satur
day at Annapolis.
Halsey Field House is the
site of the 70th annual Eastern
Intercollegiate Wrestling
Association championships,
the first step in winning a
prestigious national title.
As has been the case in the
past, Penn State, Navy, and
Lehigh are the tourney
favorites. The Nittany Lions
matmen won the event two of
the last three years,
relinquishing the title in 1972
to the Middies.
Since the competition began
in 1904, Lehigh has won a total
of 19 team championships.
Penn State is second with 16.
“Penn State is the team to
beat this year,” according to
Lehigh coach Thad Turner,
"niey have the best overall
balance; of any team entered.
Several teams will have' to
chip away at them in order to
dethrone them.”
All in all, the 70th, an
niversary should be one of the
best. Weight by weight, this is
what the competition looks
like.
118 —Penn State’s Kevin
Woodrow (1-6-0) will be pitted
against tough competition
here. Pitt’s George Bryant (7-
★★★★★★★
0) and Columbia’s Sal Lanuto
(11-0) are the early favorites.
Eric Walters (8-1) of Colum
bia and Dan Blakinger (11-1)
of Harvard may cause some
surprises.
126— Nittany Lion John
Fritz (12-1-1) should get the
top ‘seed here. He is un
defeated in dual meets,
although last week’s draw
wife Rande Stottlemyer of Pitt
could easily have.been a loss.
Other than Stottlemyer, his
main competition should come
from Dave Groverman (8-1) of
Penn. Another top contender
is Mike Frick (16-2-1), whom
Fritz defeated in the dual
meet with Lehigh.
134 —Penn State captain Bob
Medina (8-2-3) was runnerup
last year at this weight. He
should be in for a tough battle.
Defending champ Tom
Sculley (15-0-1) of Lehigh is
back, as is Bob Ciarrocki (8-
0), a senior from Kutgers who
placed sixth last year. Sculley
defeated Medina in a dual
meet earlier, and should get
the top seed.
142—Penn State freshman
Bill Vollrath (1-4) has been
improving, but he’s not quite
ready to stay with the best.
Defending NCAA champ Dan
Muthler of Navy is back, as is
Dennis Underkoffler of
Princeton, who placed fourth
in the Easterns last year.

for second season
Pat Greene (8-1) of Syracuse,
and Larry Trowbridge (10-1)
of Columbia.
150—Mike Mousetis (5-4-1)
is Penn State’s entry in the
only wide-open weight-class.
Favorites are Ray Sarinelli (9-
0-1) of Penn and Jim Bennett
(13-1-2) of Yale, who placed
sixth last year. Although the
records of the latter two are
impressive, anything can hap
pen in the early rounds, and
Mousetis could possibly make
some noise.
158—Defending champ
Jerry Villecco (12-1) is back,
but so is Cornell’s Dale Porter
(17-0-1) who finished third last
year. Villecco, whose only loss
came in the Pehn State In
vitational at the beginning of
the season, should-get the top
seed.
167—Another Penn State
defending champ, Dan Bren
neman, returns. Brenneman
(6-1-2) could have his hands
full with Jim Rich (11-3-1) of
Colgate and Columbia fresh
man Jamie Fee, who is
currently 11-0.
177 This could be the most
exciting weight class in the en
tire event. Penn State fresh
man Jerry White (13-1) lost
only to Lehigh’s Terry DeStito
'(l6-1-2). A rematch in the
finals could be in the making.
White knows what he did
wrong, and thinks
avoid a reoccurrence. Devito,
The Daily Collegian Tuesday, February 26, 1974 —
who finished sixth in the
nationals last season, should
get the top seed. His only loss
was to defending 190-pound
NCAA champ Greg Strobel, of
Oregon State.
Other competition here
could come from Steve Bon
sall (6-1) of Rutgers. Bonsall
had an impressive 68-1 record
in two, years of junior college
competition.
190 Larry Suhey (4-2-0)
might have problems in this
one. .Defending champ Jeff
Simons of Navy, who defeated
the State College native 15-0 in
their dual meet confrontation,
should get the top seed. Neal
Brendel (13-1-1) of Yale should
also be near the top. Brendel
drew with Brenneman in the
Penn State-Yale dual meet
this season.
Hwt. There are only two
names worth mentioning here,
but when the two meet, the
best match of the event may
take place. The two are Penn
Stater Charlie Getty (6-0) and
Yale’s Tim Kalrpoff (14-0).

alive, a trip to Ames, lowa is
; in store. lowa State is the host
of the WCAA tournament, to be
held March 14-16.
Six of the ten defending
champs are eligible for this
year’s tourney. They are Don
Rohn (134) and Bill Simpson
(167) of Clarion State, Dan
Muthler (142) of Navy,
Michigan’s Jarret Hubbard
(150), lowa State’s own Rich
Binek (177), and Greg
Stroebel (190) of Oregon State.
Several Penn State grap
plers have a shot at a national
title. One of those is Fritz, of
whom Thad Turner calls "One
of the nation’s top guns at
126."
Navy boss Ed Peery agrees.
“Fritz is one of the top
wrestlers in the country,” he
said. That’s not only at 126, but
at any weight.
Andy Matter (167) was Penn
State’s last titleist, winning
crowns in 1971 and '72.
Will someone take Matter's
place as the latest Lion
national champ?
"Only time will tell." said
Koll, the Penn State boss for
the last ten years.
