Third Places
Keep Squad
In Top Ten
Third-place finishers Bobby
Weaver and Colin Kilrain provided most of the points last
weekend as Lehigh claimed its
customary Top Ten position
among college wrestling's elite
in the NCAA tournament at
Iowa State.
The Engineers finished eighth
nationally in a tourney so dominated by Iowa and Oklahoma
powerhouses that others in the
field had to set their sights on
fifth place instead of any of the
top four positions.
Iowa took a fifth straight
team title with Iowa State
second, Oklahoma third and
Oklahoma State fourth. After
that the rest of the country was
allowed to get into the act, at a
respectful distance.
The tournament was a personal triumph for Weaver, a
junior from Easton, Pa., who
established himself among the
nation's top-flight 118-pounders
after already holding that role
in freestyle circles at 105.5
pounds where he's ranked with
the best in the world.
He had a super tourney which
started with a 4:42 fall over Charles Ludeman of Wisconsin and
a highly-controversial, bitterly-
disputed overtime loss to Randy
Willingham of Oklahoma State,
7-3, after a 13-13 draw.
