A young varsity wrestling team, composed almost entirely of sophomores and juniors opens its 1960-41 season with a dual meet at M.I.T. tonight.
Captain Nick Estabrook, wrestling in the 137-pound division, is the only senior in the starting lineup and one of five seniors on the 17-man squad. He is joined by "We are in a building year," commented coach Bob Pickett on the season's prospects. Besides Estabrook, the lineup for today's match includes two sophomores and five juniors, Ed Greitzer, a junior, will start in the 122-pound division, followed by classmate George Doub, wrestling at 130 pounds. Estabrook holds the 137-lb. Bob Kolodney and Paul Schmits round out the starting lineup, wrestling the 157 and 177 divisions respectively. The only letterman on the first team besides Estabrook is Doub. Senior Serge McKhann, presently on probation, is expected to return to his 147-lb. slot, however. The other lettermen on the squad are Lee Freeman and Steve Schults. The team has already seen some action in the Coast Guard Invitational Tournament at New London last Friday. Grant won second place in the heavyweight class while Estabrook took third in the 137-pound division. Winning fourth places in the tournament were Greitzer, Kolodney, and Schmitz. The matmen will face Williams Saturday after today's match at M.I.T. Perhaps the most important of the early foes will be Franklin & Marshall on Dec. 17. Last year's team fared well until that encounter, and then dropped many of the following meets for a 5-6 record.
