Chinook senior JT Hauer and sophomore Drake Berreth have wrestled a tough schedule to start the season but both are performing very well. Head coach Perry Miller is confident in these two wrestlers ability to make the adjustments necessary to be contenders come February at the state tournament in Billings.
The Chinook Sugarbeeters only had eight wrestlers on the mat at the prestigious 24th Annual Scottie Invitational but still turned in an impressive seventh place finish in a strong 24 team field. The field included all Northern B/C teams as well as many of the top teams from the east.
Seven of the eight 'Beeter wrestlers earned wins including junior Rebecca Stroh at 113 pounds, freshman Lane Snider at 120, junior Garrett Pruttis at 152, freshman Tyler Schoen at 160, senior JT Hauer at 170, senior Rielly Wiegand at 182 and sophomore Wyatt Dunbar at 285 pounds.
Wiegand won his four matches, all by pin, at the Scottie Invitational and finished tied for third in the 182 pound weight class.
Hauer finished in fifth place at 170 pounds and Pruttis earned a fifth place finish at 152 pounds for the Sugarbeeters.
Harlem had six wrestlers competing in Glasgow and sophomore John Hughes won the Wildcats only match by pinfall at 145 pounds.
The Sugarbeeters and Wildcats will stop in Fort Benton Thursday evening for the Pioneer/Longhorn Mixer. After, they will continue onto Great Falls to compete at the CMR Holiday Classic and the Bison JV Invitational Friday and Saturday.
The 'Beeters will start all of their wrestlers at the Classic Friday and Co-Head Coach Perry Miller is confident his team will have a few wrestlers remain at the Classic Saturday, "What a tough field, 32 man brackets. You need to win at least two, most likely three matches Friday to stay in contention at the Classic. You lose you head to the Bison Invitational, which in it own right is a very tough tournament."
"It's a great weekend for all the kids regardless of whether they are at CMR or Great Falls High, the competition is next level," added Miller.
"We'll hit it hard during the break. The kids have to decide where they're going to wrestle, commit and make it happen. We can see the potential, they are all working hard and we are getting better each time we step on the mat," stated Miller.
"We have a pretty good idea on what we need to focus on to reach our goals and we'll do our best as coaches to do our part and help the kids get there," concluded Miller.
Following the Classic the teams will work on the intangibles over the holiday break as they prepare for the Shelby Invitational on January 2 and the Poplar Mixer, January 4.
