ArmDrag.com is looking for volunteers to help populate the Archives.
We're not only looking for results, but tournament brackets, photos, and
articles as well. Many college and public libraries have microform copies
of complete newspapers dating back over 100 years. In them, you can find
lots of wrestling results. If you enjoy doing research, and you have some time,
make a trip to the library and check it out. Ask a librarian how to get
started and how to print out the articles that you find.

Coach: Mr. Kircher
Captain: Harry Davis
1926-27 Marshall Jurists Wrestling Team
(SOURCE:
The Senior Annual, John Marshall High, June 1927.)
A minor sport and a new school are a
great combination. Both are liable to defeat. Wrestling succeeded in
making this remark true. Although we did not win our meets this
season we had a squad that surpassed every previous one in number.
Every practice saw more men than the preceding practice until the
later ones brought at least twelve more than the first one of the
season.
In 1926, we
struggled along with only two veterans, Davis
and Moore, and a few
inexperienced wrestlers until 1927 and the new term gave us our
Brady to wrestle, and
Miller and Zimmerman
to aid Mr. Kircher, our coach.
Mr. Kircher's coaching has been greatly appreciated by the team,
and, although we regretted the loss of Mr. Mathewson,
we were very much satisfied. February brought us a new wrestling mat
which afforded us better conditions for practice.
Harry Davis, our captain and 135 man,
was awarded a letter along with Happ
of the 105 pound class, and Moore,
our 118 pound man.
Line up:
105 -
Happ
112 -
Brady, Hollaert
118 -
Moore, C. Phillips
126 -
Werd, Bianchi
135 -
Davis
147 - Hayden
160 - Marvin
175 - Palermo
Despite the
rather poor showing of the team this season we can feel more
optimistic in our outlook for the next season. The new material that
was developed this season will be veterans next year and should turn
in victories. (The Senior Annual, June 1927)
