Shrimplin A Steady Mat Star At Kent College
Jack Shrimplin, 5 foot 7, 121 pounds, a blond junior, stands in his third season on Kent's mat. He aims for his third letter as a wrestler and has been a consistent winner for coach Joe Begala. Shrimplin recalls beating Steve De Augustin last year, who later became Interstate champ and national runner up at 121 pounds. He began wrestling in 1941 at Cuyahoga Falls High, earning district and state scholastic honors, and captained his team to a 2nd place finish in 1943.
