BRUCE GABRIEL (‘82):  One of the finest wrestlers ever to wear the green and white of Plymouth State College, Bruce Gabriel was PSC’s first four-time all-New England selection.

“Gabe” compiled an 11-6 record as a freshman in 1976-77 and then went 14-1 as a sophomore in the 142 pound class. His sophomore mark included a record ten pins. Bigger and stronger as a junior, Gabriel mover up to the 150 pound class and compiled a 15-0 dual meet record. A 17-2 mark as a senior gave Gabriel a career dual meet record of 57-9. Gabriel’s career record includes 35 straight dual meet triumphs from 1978-80.

Plymouth State compiled dual meet records of 14-7 during Gabriel’s junior and senior years- the two winningest wrestling seasons ever at PSC. Gabriel earned spots in four NCAA wrestling tournaments as well during his career.
