• The Wyoming 3A State Tournament is Friday, February 26 in Casper at the Wyoming Ford Center.
In a modified Regional Tournament, part of what has been a modified season, the Star Valley Braves continued to battle through the adversity to show they are the top wrestling program in the state as they handily pulled away for the team title in Green River on Friday afternoon.
Star Valley compiled eight Regional Champions and rolled up 247.5 team points for the win. Host Green River was a distant second with 183.0. Lyman and Mountain View rounded out the team scores with 83.0 and 65.0 respectively.
The program now preps for a run at their sixth consecutive Wyoming 3A title in Casper next Friday.
SVI Media and Jason Hoopes will have audio coverage of the tournament.
