Union Endicott High School 1976 Yearbook (Endicott, NY)

Freshman

Wrestling

The Tiger freshman wrest

i ng

program was hampered by a lack

of similar programs in surround–

ing schools. Therefore, compe–

tition was largely against other

schools

older and more exper–

ienced JV teams. In dual meets,

the Tiger freshman were bested

by the JV teams of M-E, Whit–

ney Point and Deposit, but gar–

nered some revenge by upending

the Binghamton Central JV

Against more equal competition,

two successful scrimmages were

held against the Vestal and

Owego freshman. The Tiger

freshman finished their season

respectably by finishing sixth

out of fifteen JV teams in the

Bainbridge-Guilford JV Tourna–

ment. Four UE freshman placed

in the tournament: Tim Briggs

(second at 112 lbs .) and Tony

Felice, Dean Lord, and Randy

Northrup (fourth place at 91,

105, 145 lbs. respectively).
