Competitive Spot

Three wrestlers are competing
for the 167 spot. Boo Smith, Jay
Douglas, and Benton Speece have
all had a chance to win the spot,
but none have had much success.

A healthy Ted Moore will
wrestle at 177. Moore, a co-captain
and twice ACC runner-up, has been
hampered by injuries all season.

Kevin Michaels and Bill Farrell
should give the Cavaliers a strong
finish at 190 and Heavyweight.
Michaels has lost only one match all
season, and Farrell is rounding into
shape after wrestling his first match
last weekend at North Carolina.

Pitas, Pavia, Pegues, and
Michaels go into the meet
undefeated in ACC competition
after two meets, and need to win in
order to get top seedings in next
month's ACC tournament at
Memorial Gym.

Mr. Edwards looks for an
"overall team effort" against the
Wolfpack in a match which
promises to be close like last year's
when Cavalier Heavyweight Paul
Bochm pinned his opponent in the
last match to provide a two point
margin.

Starting time for the match is
set for 3 p.m. in the old gym, with
Edwards and the matmen hoping
for a good home crowd.
