X PAGE 1 - PUUNDEALER-FRIDAY. I On the Sidelines by Dick RabbiN Coach Marty Sobczak will take his "Rassling Wanriors' tonight to the Harvard Invitational. The tourney will continue all thru tomorrow. The sixteen team affair is fast becoming one of the top wrestling events in the state. Some of the better teams in the northern part of the state will participate. At least one of the Chicago city schools will be entered. Matt Schuster with a 7 and 0 record will lead the Warriors into battle. This 112 lb. fellow is as tough as they come. Brian Nuss with a record of 3 wins 1 loss and a tie is another fixture in Coach Sobczak plans. Tommy Hutchinson will enter the tourney with a 5 and 1 record at 167 lbs., and Mike Mai with a 4 and 0 record. Bill.Rowe also has a 4 and 0 record. Jeff Hurckes has been wrestling at the J. V. level and likewise is 4 and 0 for the season. It will be a long night and day for the Warriors but I'm sure they appreciate the opportunity to go against good competition. _ We are hoping for a few individual champions and a team trophy. It would be just the tonic the grapplers need for the coming year. McHenry High School will host the American Legion Junior High basketball tournament at West Campus on January 2nd and 3rd. It is an annual tourney sponsored by the Legion for the feeder schools into McHenry High. McHenry Junior High, Parkland, Johnsburg Junior High, St. John's, Harrison and Montiniwill be the teams. Mike Shanahan's "Water Warriors" are off to a fine start, with a record of 3 and 1. Senior Bruce Fetzer is undefeated in both the 200 and 500 yd. freestyle. Lowell Kivley is also undefeated in the diving. The Warriors are again entered in the Kankakee Holiday Tournament. They pair off against Hinsdale South at 12:30 p.m. on Monday Dec. 29th. The Warriors have finished in the runnerup spot twice in the past three years. Three years ago they lost to Bradley in double overtime, and last year lost to a fine Peoria Central team 54 to 49 in the finals. They will have their work cut out for them this year if they intend to reach the finals. Lying in wait if the Warriors should win their first two games will either be Marian Catholic from Chicago Heights, one of the top ranked teams in tjie Chicago area, or Willowbrook High School another powerhouse. If the Warriors yin their first game they will play the winner of the Morris-Kankakee Westview game at 7:30 P.M. on Tuesday night. The finals are scheduled for New Years Eve. With football bowl games and all the other activities that take place on this night, I am wondering if the Kankakee schools made a wise choice for the night of the finals. The Warriorsrfinally put it all together in the second half against Antioch. If they continue to play in the same manner, future opponents better take heed. The fine play of the Warrior bench must be mentioned. Doug Hertel came off the bench in both games last weekend and played like a demon. His fine work won him the Player of the Week Award. Tony Christy proved that he could come in and relieve one of the guards and not hurt the Warrior attack. He didn't have a single turnover in both games, and that in itself is remarkable considering the caliber of play in the games. Brian Miller and Billy Hurckes also showed that they are re?dy at a moments notice to get the nod from Coach Ludwig. The starting five is coming along in fine shape. The big fellow "Steve Koerber" is looking like the Kerb of old. His rebounding has been outstanding. Brian Lund shows great improvement in every game, if only he could stay out of foul trouble. Brett Decker is using his strength to keep the big opponents away from the basket, and Terry Reilly although not hitting the baskets as often, has shown great ability in his passing game. The quarterback of the team, Tom Ludwig, is great against the press. Putting this all together makes the Warriors a serious contender for the North Suburban Conference title. Sic Henry is starting a chapter of THE FELLOWSHIP OF CHRISTIAN ATHLETES. The group meets the 1st and 3rd Mondays of every month at West Campus at 7:00 P.M. Everyone is invited to attend. This is an organization that is spreading fast on both college and high school campuses. It is a worthwhile organization, and the local group would like to see more interested people. 1 (1975) 26th ANNUAL KANKAKEE HOLIDAY TOURNEY Marian Catholic , (10) 9:00 a.m. Willowbrook (9) 9:00 a.m. Waukegan West (13) 4:00 p.m. (17) 9:00 a.m. (5) 4:00 p.m. McNamara Hinsdale South 12:30 p.m. (19) (3) 12:30 P.M.
