Gone, Lost & Forgotten: Their Best = Laney

 At one time Laney College, located in Oakland, California was known as Oakland City College, not to be confused with Oakland City University what is now a NAIA institution, that was once an NCAA Division II institution.  To my knowledge the Mighty Oaks never fielded a wrestling program, but the Eagles of Laney College, when the school was known as Oakland City College did. 

I could only find last names & a handful of accomplishments however. 

Nisson at 130 lbs was a CCCAA champion in 1963

Carradine at 157 lbs was a two time CCCAA place winner taking second in 1963 & fourth in 1964

Porter at HWT was a runner-up in 1964.
