Wrangler Gym in Shoshoni was hopping Saturday with 11 teams converging on three mats for the Class 2-A West Regional Wrestling Tournament. A trio of Fremont County wrestlers were crowned regional champion, with Wind River’s Landon Rhyne winning the 113-pound division, Shoshoni’s Wiley Philleo taking the gold at 138 pounds, and Dubois senior Wyatt Trembly taking the 190-pound crown.
Joining the three champions are 23 other wrestlers who qualified for next weekend’s all-class state championship tournament at the Ford Wyoming Center in Casper.
Wind River had 10 wrestlers qualify, Shoshoni seven, Wyoming Indian five, and Dubois four.
Kemmerer continued to dominate the regional meet, but Thermopolis made a strong showing in scoring 178.5 points, just 15 behind the Rangers.
Wyoming Indian isn’t regarded as a wrestling school in light of the Chiefs basketball tradition, but they are a team on the rise with good numbers, and high interest under head coach Todd Ghormley. 
Dubois senior Hayden Howard had his tournament ended early with a dislocated knee.
