6 of our SC Warrior Wrestlers (and 1 future Warrior = 7 total) participated in the Utah Greco & Freestyle State Championships over the weekend of July 17-18, 2020. Out of 171 teams listed in the registration for the Freestyle division, our wrestlers scored enough points to finish in the #22 spot. #22 out of 171!

Because of the Covid-19 quarantine earlier this year, Spring Wrestling was shut down throughout the nation. Our state and local leaders allowed USA Wrestling Utah to hold this event in Farmington, Ut., and event organizers opened this up to surrounding states for the good of our sport.

*This tournament is normally the qualifying tournament for our Utah National Team for Fargo Nationals and other National Championship Tournaments. Since Fargo Nationals was cancelled this year, this tournament was not a Nationals Qualifier, so unfortunately, some of our top ranked Utah wrestlers chose to not participate. This tournament did however feature many top ranked participants from surrounding states and was a very tough tournament.

Since other states competed, the following criteria was used to determine the state champion from Utah:

"The highest placing Utah wrestler will be crowned the Utah State Champion. We will wrestle for a true Utah State Champion if the top 2 Utah placers have not wrestled each other."

​Many health precautions were put in placed and enforced (no hand shaking, masks for all spectators/coaches/wrestlers not on the mat wrestling, social distancing for spectators, etc.). This made the event very unique and memorable. We are grateful that our wrestlers were able to compete.

In the Greco Roman Style of Wrestling on Friday July 17, 2020, the following wrestlers representing our home town placed in the top 6 in their respective age and weight divisions:

12U (born 2008-2009)
95 lb - Preston Lang 5th place (3rd out of Utah participants)

16U (born 2004-2005)
113 lb - Edgar Renteria 5th place (2nd out of Utah participants)
195 lb - Vince Threlfall 2nd place (1st out of Utah participants)

Junior (9th-12th Grade)
113 lb - Brannon Wilson 3rd place (1st out of Utah participants)
195 lb Carson Hansen 6th place (2nd out of Utah participants)

In the Freestyle tournament on Saturday July 18, 2020, the following wrestlers representing our home town placed in the top 6 in their respective age and weight divisions:

This is the culmination of the entire season.  It's the best versus the best. Sixteen of the most qualified wrestlers from each weight class will face off in a contest of physical strength, mental toughness and heart.  It's the 4A State Championships.

We've qualified 11 Warriors for the contest. Best of luck to (Back Row Left to Right) Brannon Wilson, Tony Cox, Daxton Edwards, Kaden White, Matt Rodgers, Jace Lang, Carson Hansen and (Bottom Row Left to Right) Beau Miller, Brandon Grisenti, Edgar Rentaria and Brenden Smith. The Warrior Nation is behind you.

We've arrived! It's the post season. The next couple of weekends will give us the chance to really showcase the hard work and dedication of the entire season.

There are a few things to keep in mind for those planning to attend. The Hurricane gymnasiums are NOT in a separate building. Teams MUST enter from the south entrance of the school.  School will still be in session and student athletes, coaches, spectators and parents need to stay in the gym area until 3:00 PM. Once school is adjourned, everyone can use the commons area. Visiting teams are NOT to be roaming the halls while school is in session. 

For spectators coming to watch, they will need to enter through the south entrance of the school until 3:00 PM. Afterwards, spectators can enter from the North entrance of the school.

How do you celebrate the career of a Warrior? How do you honor the blood, sweat and tears dripped on a wrestling mat day after day, week after week and even year after year? What's the best way to pay respect to the suffering and dedication that it takes to be a Snow Canyon Warrior Wrestler? For the Warrior, the answer is easy. We do what we do: WRESTLE.

Please join us on Thursday, January 30, for Senior Night. We'll be bidding farewell to our senior class. Tony Cox, Daxton Edwards, Bryan Fossett, Brandon Grisenti, Hunter Harris, Leif Peterson, Jonathon Reza, Matt Rodgers, Tavin Shurtliff, Kaden White, Dax Wood and Ricardo Villegas, each of you have left an indelible mark on the Warrior Family. Thank you for your sacrifice, your example and your leadership.

To the Warrior Nation, let's send them out in style.

If you have ever been a Snow Canyon Warrior Wrestler, we extend a special invitation to come and be part of the Warrior's Circle. We'll have you stand around the outside of the circle on the mat while the seniors are introduced with their parents. Once everyone has been recognized, we'll ask the parents to sit and then ALL the Warriors will converge on the center of the mat to give a yell. Then stick around and see what we can do against Pine View. It's going to be a great night.

We love the Enterprise Invitational. It's one of our last chances to tool up for Regionals and get some end of the season wins from some great competition to boost confidence and pick up some momentum for the post-season. We want to invite the Warrior Nation to make the short trip to Enterprise to watch the fun.
