Hemingford Has Two Best of the West
Champions
On Tuesday January, 16 the Hemingford
wrestling squad had four wrestlers who were selected for and
competed at the Best of the West tournament at Scottsbluff, NE.
Tournament champions were Steven Overshiner and
Joe Bob Haas. Results are as follows.
Only wrestlers in the top four or five of
their respective weight class in the western Nebraska and Eastern
Wyoming area were invited. A few good Hemingford wrestlers were not
part of this meet because of the toughness of their weight
division.
At 112 Aaron Jesperson lost by
falls to Carr of Torrington and Lovesee of Gering to place third.
At 119 Jose Campos lost by a
fall to Haun of Sidney and defeated Hall of Bridgeport with a 4-1
decision to place
second.
