GWC Makes Noise in Montana and Wyoming

From Jan. 22

The Highlanders split up this weekend and experienced a lot of success at both events. Forty-six wrestlers stayed close to home and competed at the Wolf Point Invitational, while 21 veterans attended the Wild West Championship in Casper, Wyoming.

The Wolf Point Invitational featured 337 kids from 11 different clubs. The Highlanders won 67% of their individual matches on the day and crowned 10 individual champions. Twenty-seven Top 3 finishes helped power a very solid performance for the local club in what was the season opener for many.

The 21 Highlanders attending Wild West represents a team record for attendees at the prestigious event. GWC ended up with 12 Top 6 place finishers, which is also a new club record. We ended up with nine Top 3 finishers, which included Champion, Taden Sundeen, who is now a back-to-back Wild West Champion. A lot of Hardware was brought back to our little corner of Montana. Good job kids and coaches.

The Club is back in action this coming weekend with the Glasgow Wrestling Club Invitational at Scottie Gymnasium on Saturday followed by the "Cover the Court" Tournament in Malta on Sunday.
