1986 Miracle Yearbook

A Game Of Skill and Power Topping Off the Wrestling Season T he 1985-86 Cedarville College wrestling team put on an excellent showing this year. Though still a young team, they were able to compete and do well against much larger schools. Lack of depth was a problem, but with strong determination that obstacle was overcome by season's end. The highlight of the season came when the team participated in the NCCAA national tournament at Olivet Nazarene College in Illinois and finished in 4th place. Two members, Todd Dowden and Chris Link, won their weight classes for the second year in a row to become repeat All- Americans. Also contributing to the fourth place finish were Rob English, Evan English and Kelly Moore with third place finishes in their respective weight classes. Rob English was also one of four All-Americans "at large" to be voted by the NCCAA Wrestling Coaches' Association. This topped off a very successful tournament. From the NCCAA tournament, three wrestlers, Todd Dowden, Chris Link, and Kelly Moore, represented Cedarville at the NAIA national tournament and wrestled well. Based on the successful season this year, the wrestling team shows a great deal of promise for next year. Evan English 136 Wrestling
