Matmen Rooting For the Big Red To Beat Tigers

Harvard still has a chance to back into a share of the Ivy League wrestling title if Cornell can beat Princeton next weekend.

In a series of events unfortunately reminiscent of the football season, the Crimson pulled off the upset of the year last month when it beat perennial Ivy champ Cornell, only to lose itself to a strong Princeton team.

Now, the Crimson can only hope that the round-robin will be completed with Cornell taking Princeton, while it beats Brown Saturday and Yale next weekend.

Both meets for the Crimson will be away. The Bruins are in fourth place in the seven-team Ivy race with a 2-3 record; the Elis are sixth at 1-3.

The best man on the Bruin squad is cocaptain Steve Gluckman, who has been wrestling at 123 in the last few weeks. He will face either Howie Henjyoji or Andy Kopecki. But the team itself is not overpowering. In its last outing, it lost to Penn, 21-9.
