'Wildcat Wars' won by slimmest of margins

Student teams gave it their all during Wildcat Wars, a grueling and gladiatorial contest of wills and wiles, that was decided in a Friday night squeaker.

Claiming overall honors and an ice cream social – by one point, no less – was the squad from CDJ (Clinton, Delaware and Juniata halls), with Lancaster/York halls finishing an oh-so-close second. Dauphin Hall placed third, followed by the team of upper-class and off-campus combatants.

About 300 students took part in the energetic competition, a Penn College tradition for nearly a decade.
