Coch Wood’s comments on the meet: “This is the second week in a row where the Cody Broncs performed well amongst the Montana schools. It was a fun team race as Cody and Huntley Project were flip-flopping first and second place all day Friday and Saturday. It was exciting to be in the team race, knowing that each match counted. Eventually, it was a string of seven losses in the placing rounds that cost Cody the all-around tournament title. However, the tournament was set up so that there was a 1st place trophy for the A and AA schools and a team trophy for the B/C schools. Cody was placed in the larger school’s division and brought home the 1st place trophy.”

Bronc Wrestling is back in action on Friday and Saturday as they travel down to Lander.
