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.

Unseeded Mitch Bessette of Victor pulled one of the major upsets of the Section 5 Class A fast qualifier yesterday at East Rochester by decisioning top-seeded Steve Fittos of Midlakes, 5-1, in the 177-pound class.

Another upset was staged by unseeded Joe Alvarez of Jefferson, who beat Bessetts's teammate, second-seeded Tim Garlock, 10-1, in the 105-pound class.

Randy Gibbs of Honeoye Falls-Lima had the day's quickest pin, putting Marcus Whitman's Blake Champlain to the mat in 27 seconds of their 145-pound match.

Two East Rochester wrestlers wasted little time in pinning their opponents. Chris Bourn (119 pounds) finished North Rose-Wolcott's Bob Craine in one minute 20 seconds, while Brian Chaney (167) defeated Lyons' Duff Waters in :56.

At 112 pounds, Tom Pederson of Midlakes pinned Mike Prince of Jefferson in 45 seconds.
