Gone, Lost & Forgotten: Their best = Contra Costa

 The comets of Contra Costa at one time had a wrestling program. 


Leif Grunsetta
158 lbs 

Grunsetta twice placed at the CCCAA tournament. He was third in 1972 & runner-up in 1973. 


Frank Lockett
177 lbs 


Born in Louisiana, Locket graduated from De Anza High School in California before coming to Contra Costa.  More so a football player, Lockett wrestled well enough to take a CCCAA fifth place finish in 1976.  

He went on to continue his football career at the University of Nebraska.  He spent a season with the Miami Dolphins in the NFL & played quite a few years in the USFL.
