Wrestlers finish 4th at Great Falls Duals

The Whitehall High School wrestling team went 4-2 and finished in fourth place out of 16 teams at last week's Great Falls Central Duals Tournament.

Assistant coach Steve Sacry said five of the top 10 B/C Schools in the state were at the tournament, and while there is always room to improve, the team wrestled well. He added for various reasons, three wrestlers were unable to travel and this is quite a handicap for this type of dual tournament.

In pool action Friday, the Trojans defeated Deer Lodge 48-12, Three Forks 54-18, and Columbus 42-29 to move into the top bracket for Saturday action. Whitehall defeated Boulder 43-30 before falling in the semifinals to Huntley Project and in the third and fourth place match to Eureka. Huntley is currently the third ranked team in the state and Eureka is fourth.

Sacry said the top performer for the Trojans was Dallen Hoover who went undefeated with six wins, all of them by pin.

The team will next compete at the Butte Central Mixer Friday night at the Maroon Activity Center.
