Provincial, National and World Champs from Ontario

[Eric Roussin]

I've updated the list of Ontario Provincial Champions on the OAA website:

www.ontarioarmwrestling.com/oaachamps.htm

George Iszakouits continues to maintain his lead. It's important to note that this listing is not complete, as I do not have full results for all Ontario Provincial Championships going back to 1992.

I've also done some research and have put together two new lists -- a list of National Champions from Ontario and a list of World Medalists from Ontario. Both of these lists should be comprehensive, with Nationals information going back to 1991 and World information going back to 1979.

Some highlights:

George Iszakouits has the most overall National titles, with 28.

Just looking at open class titles, Tamara Mitts has won the most, with 16. Mike Gould is a close second with 15.

Earl Wilson has won twice as many world medals as the next closest competitor -- 18 in all, 11 of which are gold!

Gary Goodridge and Barb Zalepa have won the most golds in open classes, with 5 apiece.

The lists can be found here:

Enjoy!

If anyone has results for these years, either full or partial, please let me know.

There are several other people who have won national titles in the '70s and '80s. The listing I've put together only includes nationals going back to the early '90s, when there started to be just one recognized national championship. Prior to that, there were often three national championships -- one in the east, one in the west, and one in BC.

For Provincials, I'm considering all results from the OAA era (the OAA being formed in 1992).

I think the Kitchener provincials were probably in 1991 (the 1992 Provincials were in Sutton). It would have likely been a 150 class.
