5a State Tournament
Congrats to our 2017 state qualifiers. Mason was pulled into the tournament from the 1st alternate position. He also snapped a great shot of the four wrestlers on the mat during warm-ups.

- Nic Nope, 113 lbs - top 8
- Scott Krelo, 120 lbs - top 8
- Spencer Wheeler, 145 lbs - top 12

Winter Classic (@Juab) - Dec 9-10 (8th Place)
The Copper Hills varsity wrestling squad got off to a great start on the first day of the 2016 Juab Winter Classic dual meet tournament by defeating Monticello and American Fork to win their preliminary pool. This put the Grizzlies into the Gold Pool for a guaranteed top 8 finish out of the 24 teams competing in the tournament. Copper Hills put in some hard work against the strong teams in the Gold Pool, beating North Summit, the 2nd Place finisher at the tournament, by a score of 42-35. But, that ended up being the Grizzlies only win.
Despite only having 1 dual meet win, the Grizzly wrestlers put in strong performances throughout the tournament, narrowly missing a 6th place (by 3 points) as the team fell to Altamont (7th Place) by a score of 39-40 and to Fremont (6th Place) by a score of 36-38. Despite the losses, the wrestlers gained valuable experience for the season as all teams in the Gold Pool but one finished in the top 6 at the state championships last year. Fremont, who finished behind Copper Hills (9th Place) in 11th Place at last year's 5A championships, is ranked #2 as a team in pre-season polls this year.
