GREAT FALLS — Butte wrestlers Clay Stillwagon, Levi Renz and Tommy Challeen placed second in their weight class Saturday at the 35th Annual Holiday Wrestling Classic at the CMR Fieldhouse.
Stillwagon, of Butte Central, placed second in the 98-pound division. Renz and Challeen, of Butte High, were runners up in the 135- and 145-pound groups.
Butte High, which was shorthanded because of sickness, placed 14th overall with 73 team points. Butte Central took 25th with 43.
Great Falls High won the team title with 243 points, beating second-place Havre by 38 points.
Stillwagon fell to Havre’s Keegan Kennely in a 14-5 decision in the championship bout. Stillwagon beat Kennely earlier this season in Havre in a rivalry that could be decided once and for all at the MetraPark Arena in Billings.
Renz fell 6-2 in the championship bout to Taylor French of Belgrade in the 135 group. Challeen was disqualified in the 145-pound final, giving the title to Chris Nile of Forsyth.
The tournament was the last action for the Butte High varsity team before the Christmas break. The Bulldogs are back in action Jan. 3 when they take on Billings Skyview at home.
The Maroons don’t wrestle again until the Bozeman Invitational on Jan. 4.
