RIT Grapplers Capture ICAC's With 3 Point Edge
It was a sensational finish for the Tiger grapplers. After taking nine dual meets in a row, they went on to win the ICAC wrestling championships last Friday at RIT. In doing so, RIT dethroned defending champion St. Lawrence who held the title for the past five years. The Tigers last held the title in 1972. SOURCE: RIT Reporter, February 22, 1980.
