Team History (66)

1963-1964 North Tonawanda Lumberjacks Wrestling

NT's third newest sport began in the 1960-61 season under the organization and direction of Mr. Rotundo. With that same 'can't pin me down' attitude as characterized their first year, and with the help of new assistant coach Korzelius, the wrestling team puts forth power and determination that is hard indeed to match.
