Close Fight

At 130 pounds Jon Shurberg
almost beat the Southern Conference
champ, but lost 8-9. The
margin between victory and defeat
depended upon the differences
in riding times of the two grapplers.

The next weight class was the
last to be enjoyed by Virginia.
Chuck Westcott had to make a
comeback to edge his opponent,
4-3. He won with the help of two
minutes riding time.

In each of the next six matches
the Cavaliers were not so lucky.
John Pegues, Tom Moore, Pete
Faber, Ron Bright, Jay Douglas,
and Mac Horton all lost.
