Penn's two best wrestlers are its co-captains, 123-pounder Richie Sofman and heavyweight Bruce Jasobsohn. Both seniors, they head a lineup that presents an unusual mosaic of experience and inexperience. The Quakers will start five seniors, three sophomores, and only one junior...
Cornell had taken a quick 6-0 lead in the meet as Bob Stock decisioned Harvard's Howie Henjyoji 3-2 at 123, and Captain Neal Orr trounced Bing Sung, the Crimson's 130-pounder, 7-1.
