GREEN RIVER – The Green River High School wrestling team demonstrated dominant performances, for the most part, in the first day of the Thoman Soda Ash Memorial Wrestling Tournament on Friday, Jan. 3, in Green River.
The Wolves began the day by shutting down the Cokeville Panthers by a total team score of 84-0 in the first round.
In the third round, the Wolves battled hard and defeated Uintah High School’s No. 2 varsity team from Vernal, Utah, 51-24.
Green River ended its first day of tournament action by defeating the Worland Warriors in the fifth round, 60-18.
Green River head coach Joshua Wisniewski said he thought the Wolves wrestled well, but there was still room for improvement in certain situations and wanted to see the guys wrestle with a little more intensity going into the winner bracket on Saturday, Jan. 4.
“I thought we looked a little flat in our second dual, but I’m glad we picked it up in our last dual,” he said. “I would like to see us wrestle a bit better in the third period of matches.
“We’re still working on getting a little better shape so we can attack better in the third period.
“I think we come out (Saturday) excited about the chance of a team title and wrestle well.”
