After the conference meet, the young grapplers headed to Hanna, WY for the Carbon County Tournament. This two-day tourney featured 16 teams. Unfortunately, the second day was cancelled due to bad weather.
On the first day of the tournament Owen Haiar, Josh Pridgeon and Roman Hrek went 2-0, qualifying for the semi-finals. Lance Weaver, Leo Lyons and Gavin Mollenbrink were eliminated on the first day of the event.
This Saturday, the Bulldog wrestlers will head to Lingle for the Regional meet to qualify for the state meet in Casper the following weekend. Regionals begin at 9:30 a.m.
