1952-1953 Jefferson Statesmen
WRESTLING. Although the 1953 Wrestling team suffered losses from illness and ineligibility, it finished the season with a high rating in the city and sectional tournaments. The climax of the year was the crowning of our own Tommy Nacca as city and sectional champion in the 145 pound class. He was undefeated in seven league matches and in five tournament matches. May his example be an inspiration to all succeeding wrestlers. PICTURED (not in order): M. Gravino, T. Nacca, A. Stavalone, T. Maggio, R. Liberatore, J. Berardicurti, J. Paternico, C. Nicosia, R.
