Highlanders Reign Supreme at MonDak Open and Border Brawl

It was another great weekend for our Hometown Highlanders! The Glasgow Wrestling Club tested their mettle at the MonDak Open in Williston on Saturday and the Border Brawl in Plentywood on Sunday. Neither event could hold GWC down, however, as it was another ultra-successful showing for the future Scotties.

On Saturday, the MonDak Open was held at “The Well” on the campus of Williston State College. It featured 34 clubs and 551 wrestlers! The Glasgow Wrestling Club had the 3rd largest club in attendance with 55 strong. At the end of a long day of wrestling, GWC would finish with 14 individual Champions and 36 top three finishes! The team grabbed the 2nd most pins/tech falls with 63 in total. Only the tournament host would finish with more. The team’s 61% winning percentage trailed only the Dakota Rattlers (Minot, ND).

On Sunday, a smaller contingent of Highlanders took part in the Border Brawl held in the Plentywood High School Gymnasium. Sunday’s group was small, but mighty! 21 Highlanders made the trek and participated in an event that featured 10 clubs and 175 wrestlers. GWC had the 4th largest team at this small event; yet finished with the 2nd most pins/tech falls with 39 total and a tournament best winning percentage of 68%. 10 Individual Champions were crowned at the Border Brawl, while 20 individuals finished in the top three!

Next weekend provides the lone “open” weekend on the traditional Glasgow Wrestling Club Schedule. The open week is strategically placed to allow all youth wrestlers and their parents a chance to attend the High School State Championships at the Billings Metra. Good Luck to our Scotties this weekend!
