Upside Down Ranger
Liverpool High's Pat Miller in on his knees, attempting to put Spencerport's Wayne Johnson in pinning position during their 98-pound championship match at last night's Bill Andersen Memorial Tournament at North Syracuse. Miller was unable to put his foe's shoulders to the canvas, but he fought to a well-earned 10-9 victory over the Spencerport 'Ranger' (as Spencerport is known).
