This year for the first time wrestling made its interscholastic debut at McQuaid. Until two years ago wrestling was chiefly a college sport. Now it has entered the high school field and is more than a welcome addition to our already wide athletic program.

Under the expert guidance of Mr. Masino, our team has shaped up and proven itself to be a formidable match for any and all comers. From all indications wrestling at McQuaid is developing into a very popular and well-supported sport. (Acolade, 1959)
