The 12th Annual Montana Open was a smashing success for the Highlanders! This year’s squad set a program record with 15 placers at the prestigious event. (previous record was 12 in 2013)
We were the 10th largest team at the event and finished in 15th place overall out of 134 teams (1640 wrestlers total. A new tournament record). A 4th place finish in the medium team division and tied for 1st among all Class B/C towns.

Four Highlanders will wrestle one more weekend! Colten Fast, Ty Kittleson, Mayson Phipps, & Trevor Overvold have qualified for Team Montana and will represent our state at the Middle School and Frosh/Soph National Duals this weekend in Iowa!! Congrats to these young men. Finish strong!
