RICHARDS CLIPBOARD NOTES: --Dallas mat fans tell me Joe Walsh *(185) has been looking mighty impressive and has the potential to be an outstanding wrestler in the future. --Speaking of the Mountaineer mal program, Jim williams is doing’ a splendid job with the. Junior High wrestlers. This is an important area for any program. This is where the athletes learn the fundamentals and the necessary discipline it takes to be a winner. Bill Janosky, Mike Richards, Jerry Ogurkis and Keith Graham have been showing a lot of con- sistency. Young Mountaineers re- cently defeated Valley West for the first time in quite a while. --Was that Evelyn Farrell leading the cheers on the floor after Dallas roundballers defeated GAR for first half crown? --Loocal wrestling fans are already talking about the showdown between No. 1 ranked Penn State and No. 2 ranked Bloomsburg on Thursday, Feb. 16 at University Park. The big clash will feature former Lake-Lehman --It’s a tribute to the Penn State wrestling team that despite being without All-American Scott Lynch, the East’s top 126-pounder, and two front-line wrestlers at 134 pounds. Nittany Lions have bveen giving away some points there lately. Then Heavyweight Steve Sefter, the East's best at this weight, suffered a pulled ligament around his rib cage. Coach Lorenzo isn’t one to complain or make any big deal about injuries,’ but the Nittany Lions are hurting. Sefer skipped the Wilkes meet. State didn’t announce he wasn’t going to compete until the victory was sewed up. We knew on Monday while conferring with Coach Lorenzo of Sefter’s status. He was pointing for the biggie with Cleveland State over the weekend. Lynch is expected back in time for the EWL Tournament later this month. --How about the Lake-Lehman victory over Meyers? It has been sometime since the Black Knights have defeated the Mohawks on the mat. -I've heard rumblings from various Pitt buffs that Russ Grimm, the All-Pro guard with the Redskins, is seriously: considering jumping to the Pittsburgh Maulers. .
