STATE WRESTLING – The Wyoming high school activities association will host all three state wrestling tournaments in Casper this week, instead of the usual all class event the 2-A tournament leads off today the Tongue River Eagles compete today.

The 3-A tournament will be tomorrow and the 4-A state championships will be held Saturday.

The Bronc wrestlers will be one of five teams with a good shot to win the state title Saturday, we sat down with Broncs Head coach Tyson Shatto Wednesday to preview the championships and first he says going into the school year wrestling was the one sport that most people thought would have major issues during a pandemic when distancing and wrestling don’t go together at all.

And he said coming into the season they thought the Broncs would be pretty good and they got going and rolled to a 24-0 dual record then won the regional title.

The biggest change to the season came last week when the wrestlers competed in a bracket format event for the first time this season and going into the state tournament it will be the same and adjustments have to be made.

We also found out Wednesday that Tyson was name the conference coach of the year.
