GREAT FALLS — Two Mission Valley wrestlers won their weight classes at the fifth annual Tournament of Champions in Great Falls. Polson’s Craig Feistner won the 140-pound championship, and Mission-Charlo's Jacen Petersen won at 171 pounds.
The tournament, sponsored by the Great Falls personal injury law firm of Hoyt and Blewett PLLC, is a one-day, single elimination tournament featuring the top high school wrestlers in the state from classes AA, A and B-C. To qualify, wrestlers must be top place-winners at the state all-class wrestling tournament in Billings. The field of 62 wrestlers featured 27 state champions, including nine repeat champions.
“The champs put on a real spectacle for the crowd. The wrestling just keeps getting better and better,” said tournament sponsor and Great Falls attorney Zander Blewett. “We tip our hats to every wrestler who showed up because they not only put their state titles on the line, they left their hearts on the mat.”
