Hi Princess,
Google lists 44 hits where some mention of Mr. Ambrose is made. I
also did a cursory, $2 search at http://www.alltheweb.com, and was
satisfied that Google has links to almost everything available on Mr.
Ambrose on the Web. Please note that I've not provided links to sites
where Mr. Ambrose is simply named as officiating at a match.
In order, an interview with Mr. Ambrose on the PennState site is here:

A mention of Ambrose, "The biggest controversy surrounding this dual
was Robinson’s decision to petition for a new official for this dual
(sic), cutting out Iowa native Keith Poolman in favor of Pennsylvania
resident Fred Ambrose, but that didn’t mean Robinson still didn’t have
complaints.":

A Jan. 14, 2001 issue of "WIN" (Wrestling International Newsmagazine)
notes of Penn State's Upset of 10th Ranked Lehigh, "Wright was a
decided underdog as he entered the 157-pound match with Penn State
trailing the dual meet 13-9. However, he wasted little time in
clamping a head lock on Bernholz and taking him flat to his back. A
slap of the mat by referee Fred Ambrose was followed by a heated
debate involving both benches. When the smoke had cleared Penn State
held a15-13 lead and was looking squarely at the opportunity to knock
off its first Top 10 ranked opponent since defeating No. 3 Minnesota
nearly three years ago.":
