Sophomore Jim Abbott and junior Bob Panoff have both just recently recovered from injuries that crippled their performances in the crucial Cornell and Penn meets early in the season. Captain Andy Kopecki entered the hospital for a sudden appendectomy the morning of last week's Rutgers meet and is through for the year. That's been the wrestling team's year this year...

Shaw, in perhaps the season's most touted performance, ran a brilliant 4:02.8 mile at Dartmouth a week ago, without the aid of a pacer, to break his own University record...
