The Evanston High School wrestling team had a solid showing at the Thoman-Jackson Invitational in Green River over the weekend, third in the Gold Division.
The Red Devils went 6-1 in the dual-meet format, beating Worland 57-18 in the 3rd-place match. Uintah, Utah won the team title, followed by Green River in second; Pinedale rounded out the Top 5.
“It was good competition,” said EHS head coach Larry Wagstaff. “We competed well against some good schools, then we wrestled Vernal [Uintah High School, Vernal, Utah], and got a lesson taught to us. But we’ll move on from there, continue to work, take some of those lessons and move forward, continue to get better.”
The Red Devils opened the tournament Friday with a 66-11 win over the Renegades – a team made up of wrestlers from various schools – followed by a 68-12 drubbing of Campbell County. Evanston received a bye in round three, then narrowly defeated Rawlins 39-37 in round four. The Red Devils closed out the first day of competition with a 73-6 rout of Grantsville.
