Wrangell’s high school wrestling team finished in third overall during the weekend’s Pilot Invitational at Thunder Mountain High School in Juneau.

“It was a great tournament,” said Wolves coach Jeff Rooney. “Some great competition all around.”

Included in the competition were the Colony High School Knights, a 4A team from Palmer. Rooney said the team raised the level of the tournament and challenged his players.

“They did very well,” he commented. Of the 12 taken to Juneau, five ended up competing in the finals, with two finishing in first.
