19 Highlanders traveled to Denver for a great tournament, with six coming away with hardware. This is one of the toughest tournaments in the region every year. Rocky Mountain Nationals was a great measuring stick for these young wrestlers. 25 kids also traveled to the Havre Invitational with several wrestlers coming away undefeated and everyone getting 3-4 matches.

Out of the 340 teams represented at the Rocky Mountain Nationals in Denver this past weekend, our very own Glasgow Highlanders Wrestling Club was the 13th largest team competing with 19 athletes from high school to Kindergarten and second to only Sidney Wrestling Club in the state of Montana.

Competing for the Highlanders in Denver were Nate Hentges, KJ Ingram, Grady Nielsen, Aiden Hoerster, Kyler Hallock, Cale Swanson, Tel Aune, Skye Buckles, Trevor Overvold, Cooper Allen, Matt Reyling, Oden Hallock, Mitchell Overvold, Casey Seyfert, Cade Myrick, Blaine Myrick, Alex Hallock, Tony Kaiser & Cody King.

Grady Nielsen 4th, Trevor Overvold 4th, Skye Buckles 3rd, Tel Aune 5th, Cooper Allen 5th, Matt Reyling 5th.

There was also a dual tournament format for the Jr. High/High School aged kids. Matt Reyling, Trevor Overvold, Tel Aune and Alex Hallock competed for the Team Montana Jr. High squad and were able to help secure the 2nd place team trophy. The regular season is wrapping up this weekend with the Williston Invitational and Black Hills National tournament in Spearfish, SD.
