Cody Middle School Wrestling Caps Undefeated Season with Conference Championship

The Cody Middle School Wrestling team capped off an undefeated season last weekend winning the Big Horn Basin Conference Championship. 22 of their 29 wrestlers placed in the top three.

In the “A” bracket, first place finishers included: Kayson Grant, William Wood, Kannon Grant and Gabe Grant.

Second place finishers were: Lance Baggs and Gavin Seibert

Third place finishers were: Bobby Hernandez, Kort Sorensen, Cinch Dalton, Ashten Hubbs, Anker Stewart, Charlie Becker

Fourth place finishers were: Syrus Bates and Landon Schulz

Comments from Coach Travis Duncan: “We really had an awesome year with this group of wrestlers, and we are really proud of how they continued to grow and compete throughout the year. Although we had a core group of wrestlers consistently dominating the competition and placing each weekend, some of our younger less experienced wrestlers who didn’t have a lot of success earlier in the year, actually had their best outings at conference. It’s been a lot of fun coaching these guys this year. We have won a few Conference Tournaments in years past, but the unique makeup of this crew was pretty special. As a team, they didn’t lose a single tournament or dual match.”

Over in the B bracket:

First place included: Tevyn Bates, Owen Foley, Chase Schubert, Jayden Dinehart, Josh Sauers, and Noah Trunkhill.

Second place included: Jaxson French and Israel Robertson

Third place included: Jake Martin

Fourth place included: Bryson Laing

Comments from Coach Rodney Miears:

“People are going to want to stick around to watch this crew as they continue to grow and wrestle. This group will only get better and has the potential to make some noise in the years to come at the High School level. It’s been a real pleasure working with these fine young men.”

Comments from Coach Trev Wood:

“This group of young men are some of the hardest working kids I have coached at the middle school level. They listen, ask questions, and strive to get better. A lot of their success comes from putting in time with the USA Wrestling program and their coaches. I believe our slogan is: “They forge the knife, and we sharpen the blade.” There is a handful of parents who have been helping coach Steven French turn these young men into wrestlers, so once they come to us in the middle school and high school programs, we can fine tune their skills mentally and physically, and keep the train rolling!”
