Champions Keep Dreams Alive at Swarthout

By SCOTT MANSCH Tribune Asst. Sports Editor

The wrestling Rauser brothers have Olympic dreams, so it wasn't lost on them that Saturday's inaugural Meet of Champions was in the same gymnasium at Great Falls High that once featured victories by the Zadick boys.

Jade and Val Rausers are sophomores at Broadwater County High in Townsend, where they've already established quite a wrestling legacy. In Great Falls there is also a considerable mat tradition, which includes a world championship by Bill Zadick and, last summer, and Olympic appearance by his brother Mike.

"I was thinking about that," Jade Rauser. "This is where they used to wrestle."

Hopes and dreams were most definitely alive in the venerable fieldhouse Saturday as the Tournament of Champions produced an exciting afternoon of wrestling before a crowd of about 750.

"It wasn't beyond our expectations but it was right there," said Great Falls attorney Zander Blewett, who along with sons Anders and Drew worked for nearly a year to organize the event. "The wrestlers and coaches were fantastic, and we probably had more people than we thought might. And next year we'll do way better."

More than half of the 45 individual champions from the All-Class Championships came to the Electric City for an additional weekend of grappling. Some were there for a mulligan after disappointing finales at the All-Classer. Others who will graduate in the spring showed up for a final nostalgic cameo in school colors.

And a few, like the Rauser twins, were here because it was just the next meet on the schedule. Jade won the 105-pound title and Val was the 112 champion on Saturday.

"We were just looking for the competition," said Jade. "We started working out with our Cobra (AAU) club last week and we'll be in a tournament in Butte (today). We'll be starting Greco and Freestyle so we can get ready for this summer in Fargo and the Junior Nationals."

And in a few years?

"Hopefully by the next Olympics we'll be able to try out," Jade said.

The Tournament of Champions attracted 57 athletes who competed in semifinals and finals in the spotlight at Swarthout. The Glasgow Scotties had the most individual champions with three, while teams from Havre, Kalispell Flathead and Townsend had two each.

Havre's winners included Myles Mazurkiewicz (135) and Kent Pattison (140). Mazurkiewicz is a senior who will undoubtedly be wrestling in college next winter, while Pattison is a junior who figures to be a team leader next season as the powerhouse Blue Ponies of head coach Scott Filius seek more mat glory in the Treasure State.

Mazurkiewicz, a two-time Class A state champion, has already earned a lot of that. He was smiling Saturday afternoon when asked about the first Tournament of Champions.

"It's realy encouraging," Mazurkiewicz said. "Some people said it's meant to degrade other wrestlers, but I don't find that at all. It's just a case of let's get out there and wrestle to see who's the best. You've really got nothing to lose."

Other highlights were provided by the Glasgow Scotties, as superstars Myles Kittleson (189) and Chance Rauscher (215) both added to their unbeaten senior seasons with T of C championships. Sophomore Chaz Hopstad (160) also won twice, defeating athletes from both Class A and Class AA.

Class AA finished with seven champions on Saturday. Among the winners was Helena High heavyweight Toby Erickson, the largest of the large in the division. Erickson edged longtime friend Ethan Tweet of Fort Benton - a three-time Class B-C champion - 3-1 in the championship finals.

"I think it's phenomenal that they were able to do this," said Erickson. "Just a great opportunity."

Erickson did not lose a match his last two seasons in a Bengal uniform and will compete for Boise State next season. He said there might just be a bright future for the Tournament of Champions.

"I think kids would enjoy it, but we've got to get all the state champions," said Erickson.

The Blewetts tried. Next year they promise to try even harder.

"We're not going to have to sell the concept next year, because all the coaches are with us and aware of us," said Zander Blewett. "This has been very rewarding and a lot of fun."

Mazurkiewicz knows what he's talking about.

"They treated us very well all weekend," said the Havre standout. "It was a good experience and I hope it continues."

Other winners at the Tournament of Champions included Cole Mendenhall of Great Falls High (98), David Demo of Bozeman (119), Joaquin Calderon of Kalispell Flathead (125), Shawn Lau of Kalispell Flathead (130), Tyler Elm of Billings Skyview (145), Larry Francis of Kalispell Glacier (152) and Brock Picard of Polson (171).

University of Great Falls Pence Qualifies for Nationals

JAMESTOWN, ND - January 24, 2009 - The third-ranked University of Great Falls Argos wrestling team sent two of their wrestlers that haven't qualified for the national tournament to Saturday's Jimmie Open in Dickinson, North Dakota.

Jason Pence (JR, Prineville, OR) qualified by taking second place in the 184 lb. weight class. Pence became the 12th Argo grappler to qualify for the 2009 NAIA National Wrestling Championships set to take place in March on the campus of Oklahoma City University. Robert Hazenberg (SR, Kennewick, WA, 197 lbs.) fared well at the tournament hosted by Jamestown College but failed to qualify for Nationals. Hazenberg finished sixth at 197 lbs.

Great Falls will return to the McLaughlin Center on Saturday, January 31, 2009 for a dual against nationally ranked Dickinson State University beginning at 1:00PM

Class AA Duals Tournament: The last AA coaches poll was pretty accurate as top-ranked Skyview won it, followed by second-ranked Flathead. Great Falls reversed the order for third and fourth, though, as the Bison defeated Bozeman 40-32 in the consolation. Bozeman was ranked third and GFH fourth. By all accounts, the tourney ran well and it appears it will be a go again next year. It sounds like the Falcons could have won a couple matches they lost against Flathead, but I’m sure the Braves probably feel the same way.

Class A Duals: The proud Blue Ponies of Havre won the event. I’m not sure how many times they have won, but it has to be quite a few. I wonder how many of Havre’s trophies have been put in boxes to make room in the trophy case for new ones?… Sidney was at the Baker Invitational and won that meet over Colstrip 114-78. It would be interesting to see Sidney at the Class A Duals, but maybe (and this is just a guess) it’s a coaching angle to go to Baker and see different talent and different styles before the upcoming divisional and state meet against all-Class A competition.

Class B/C action: Conrad rolled to victory at its own dual tourney and posted a 60-15 victory over Great Falls High’s JV in the championship. … At the Harlem Invitational, it was Glasgow first with 195 and then Cascade-Simms and Chinook tied with 112.

Townsend sophomore Jade Rauser was ranked 10th in the individual ratings at 103 pounds. Gillette (Wyo.) senior Tyler Cox was fourth at 119 and Helena senior heavyweight Toby Erickson seventh.

Are Flat Head High School’ wrestlers the best ever?
By DIXIE KNUTSON/The Daily Inter Lake

 

Polson, Butte coaches impressed with season turned in by Braves

BILLINGS — Are they the best Montana wrestling team ever?

That was the talk all weekend at MetraPark.

The subject, of course, was the Flathead Braves. The Braves won every tournament they entered this year, from the season opener in Polson through three prestigious regional tournaments. They won every dual and have been ranked as high as 10th in the nation. They capped their season off Saturday night with a breathtaking 410-point performance to win their third straight Class AA state title.

 

But are they the best ever?

According to two legendary Montana wrestling coaches, the 2008 Flathead Braves just may be the best wrestling team Montana has ever produced.

“That’s the best team I’ve watched,” longtime Polson coach Bob Owen said of the Braves.

“You can count on everybody on the team for points,” he said.

“In the old days, when we only could have the starting kids score, there might have been teams that were pretty close,” Owen said.

“But I totally think that’s the best team I’ve seen.

“They are, top to bottom ... they don’t have any weaknesses in the lineup. That’s a solid group,” he said.

“At one time, I looked out there ... there was one (Brave) on three mats and two on a fourth one,” said Butte coach Jim Street. Street was himself the architect of 13 straight championships for the Bulldogs.

“They’ve got great depth and they’re doing an excellent job. Their kids are all physical specimens and they’re working hard.

“What can you say other than we wish that we were like that right now. It kind of reminds me of what we were like,” he said.

“They’re a great wrestling team. They’re making Montana proud again and I think that’s good,” Street said.

“Just to even be considered is such an honor,” said Flathead coach Jeff Thompson.

“You know, I don’t know. Point-total-wise, wow ... over 400 points in a state tournament. That’s just an amazing effort by these young men. It’s been quite a year.

“I’m blessed to have an amazing coaching staff. They have so many assets where I have faults. We work so well together. They’re my best friends.”

But the best ever?

“It’s extremely difficult to judge teams at different times in the ages. It’s also very, very difficult to judge individuals in different classifications and different times,” Street said.

“The only way you can figure it out is if they were wrestling each other. But I tell you what, if they want the bragging rights, they can sure take it, because they’re tough. Really tough.”

“You dream about having those kind of kids to work with. But they’ve built it, so they deserve what they have,” Owen said.

University of Great Falls Institutes NAIA Wrestling Program

UGF ANNOUNCES HIRING OF WRESTLING COACH

The University of Great Falls is pleased to announce the hiring of Eric Van Kley, Penn., as head wrestling coach. Van Kley has had experience at all levels of coaching including NCAA Division I, High School, and Club Wrestling. Coach Van Kley will be developing the new program at UGF. Wrestling is set to begin this fall. President McAllister said the school is adding wrestling for three reasons: To increase enrollment, to add to student life, and to accurately reflect the interests of north-central Montanans. President McAllister attended part of the NAIA national mat meet here several weeks ago and came away impressed.

"I saw young men competing very hard, very aggressively," he said. "But they stood up at the end of the match and shook hands with one another. I thought that was very admirable, and that's a quality we'd like to bring here. That's the ability to work very hard but behave like a gentleman."

The new coach has aspirations to help the students grow in academics and athletics, but also socially, spiritually, and professionally. Coach Van Kley and his wife, Sarah will be moving to Great Falls, MT, in the middle of May. For any inquiries please contact Jolene Bach at 406-791-5290 or visit the website at http://www.ugf.edu/ The University of Great Falls is a private, four-year Catholic university founded by the Sisters of Providence and open to qualified men and women of every race and creed.

Kalispell wrestlers claim fourth title at Rocky
By JON KASPER of the Missoulian

Jeff Thompson finally has a Jug Beck Rocky Mountain Classic championship.

The Kalispell wrestling coach can thank his Braves for getting him one of the few things that eluded him during his illustrious prep career at Great Falls High.

Led by three champions, the second-ranked Braves captured their first Rocky Mountain Classic title since 1987 on Saturday night at the Missoula Sentinel gym.

 

Nine Braves finished in the top six, and Thompson's troops compiled 220 points during the two-day event. Clarkston, Wash., a 3-A squad, was second with 180fi. University High of Spokane, a 4-A team, was third with 161 points. Defending champion Butte was fourth with 156. Great Falls High rounded out the top five with 129fi points.

Thompson, who won three state titles while wrestling for the Bison, came up short of winning a Rocky Mountain title in two appearances. He finished second to Missoula Big Sky's Shannon Stewart in 1991, losing 5-3 in overtime.

"We're feeling pretty good,'' Thompson said. "We wrestled really well. It's a stepping stone for us. We'll get back to practice Monday and continue to work hard and focus on the state tournament."

The RMC championship is Kalispell's fourth, but first since a run of three straight from 1985-87. The Braves finished a half point behind Butte in 1993.

Kalispell won the C.M. Russell Holiday Classic just before Christmas. The Braves finished second at a tournament in Spokane last week. They can now begin focusing on state next month in Billings, where they'll battle the likes of Billings Skyview and Billings Senior, which weren't at the Rocky Mountain Classic.

"It's a great confidence builder for us,'' Thompson said. "It's neat to see we're a tournament team this year. That's what the state meet is. We're going to soak this tournament win in tonight and get back to work on Monday.''

"This is our biggest confidence boost of the year,'' said Kalispell's Tyler O'Myer, who won the 112-pound title with an 8-4 win over Tyler Yonago of Spokane's Ferris High. "We pretty much walked all over Butte and Great Falls High. We haven't lost to a AA school in the state yet. I think we're going to have a good shot of winning state.''

Kalispell senior Devin Eystad (145) captured his second straight Rocky title with a 13-7 win over Libby's Jake Spencer. Kalispell's other champion was 189-pounder Chris Thompson, who is no relation to Coach Thompson. Thompson pinned Columbia Falls' David Ampudia in 4:50.

"This feels great,'' Eystad said. "This is one of the toughest tournaments in the state. I did well. I'm glad. We haven't won this tournament since 1987. There is a lot of tough competition here. This will put us as one of the people to look at for state.''

Chris Thompson (160), Larry Johnston (215) and heavyweight Tiger Harris all finished second for Kalispell. Harris, who has been battling shoulder problems, decided sit out the championship match. Libby's heavyweight Keevin Bertelsen won his second straight Rocky title, this one without stepping on the mat.

"All of those kids in the finals wrestled so well, even Chris Thompson and Larry Johnston, who lost.'' Coach Thompson said. "Tyler O'Myer had a great tournament. It's a great confidence builder for him. He's wrestling better than he ever has before.''

Brandon Mitchell (105) and Robbie Kinkel (125) took third for the Braves, while Ryan Nelson (135) finished fourth.

Saturday night's championship finals featured 10 matches that went the distance. Butte's Josh Robinson had the quickest title match, pinning Johnston in 1:00. Robinson won the quick pin award, sticking four opponents in a combined time of 6:57.

Great Falls High's Brandon Haman and Polson's Kevin Owen each captured their third RMC titles.

Haman, a senior, beat Clarkston's Jason Fairley 10-7 in the 125-pound final.

Owen, a junior, beat Kalispell's Chris Thompson 12-2 in the 160-pound final. Owen has a chance to become just the second wrestler to win four RMC titles next season. Great Falls High's Kole Tolliver won four straight from 1999-2002. Winning a fourth RMC title wasn't on Owen's mind Saturday night.

"I usually take it one tournament at a time,'' Owen said. "A lot of the work and effort I put in the wrestling room is paying off."

Owen said he'd gladly trade a Rocky Mountain title for a state title next month in Billings. Owen has yet to win state.

Butte's Noah McEwen saw his hopes of a third RMC title derailed in the 130-pound semifinals when he lost 3-2 to Trace Brandburn of Mead, Washington. McEwen placed fifth.

Missoula Hellgate junior Austin Ouellette capped an outstanding meet by winning the 152-pound title. In Saturday morning's semifinals, Ouellette handed Polson's Logan Kugler his first loss of the season with a 7-3 win.

"After I beat the Polson kid is when I realized I was feeling good,'' Ouellette said.

In the finals, Ouellette beat Corvallis' Caleb Cousins 6-3. Ouellette was the only Garden City wrestler in the finals.

"This is probably the best meet I've ever had,'' Ouellette said. "I've always watched this since I was a little kid and I always looked forward to wrestling in it. I did well.''

Ouellette said he was about 7 or 8 the first time he watched the Rocky. He said he used to sell pizza at the concession stand in the Sentinel lobby.

In the best match of the night, Columbia Falls' Aric Tarr ran his winning streak to 50 with a 3-2 win over Cory Fish of University High. Like Tarr, Fish came into the match undefeated. Tarr beat Fish 5-4 in the 98-pound Rocky finals last year. Fish is ranked first in Washington at 103 pounds, and has a Cadet national championship on his resume.

In Saturday's match, Tarr opened with a quick two-point takedown. Fish scored two points on escapes, one in the first period and one in the second. Tarr began the third period on the bottom, and scored an escape point with roughly 90 seconds left in the match.

"I wanted to get the escape and then hang on,'' Tarr said. "I was hoping there wasn't enough time for him to take me down."

Tarr, a state champion last season, pumped his fists several times and raised his arms in triumph. He called the win the biggest of his career.

"I'd say it's No. 1,'' said the junior. "I beat him last year and I thought he was going to stand up this year and come harder at me. It was probably the best match I've ever wrestled."

Libby's Josh Erickson claimed his first Rocky title and was named the tournament's outstanding wrestler. The senior who claimed a state Class A title last season hiked his season record to 21-0 with a 12-2 win over Polson's Brett Owen in the 171-pound match. Erickson joins a very elite group of Montana wrestlers to win state, Rocky and Tri-State titles in his career. Erickson has won the Tri-State, a prestigious tournament held in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, twice.

Butte's Cole Dallaserra (119) and Great Falls Russell's Tom Daniels (140) both repeated at Rocky champs. Superior's Tyler McGillivray won his first RMC title by Brandburn at 130.

Big Sky's Will Cusker picked up a third-place finish at 119-pounds. Cusker, who wasn't seeded despite an 18-3 record entering the tournament, earned an 8-7 decision over Great Falls High's Zach Gregoire in the consolation championships. Cusker fell to Dallaserra 4-0 in the semifinals.

Big Sky's Nick Horst placed fifth at 189, while teammate Jack Lowney took sixth at 140. The Eagles finished with 62 points, good enough for 15th place.

There was a moment of silence prior to the championship round in honor of John Fisher, the former Big Sky wrestling coach who died of cancer in late October.

Hellgate finished 17th with 30 points. Missoula Sentinel placed 20th with 11 points.

The Owen factor was a little lighter at this year's tournament.

For the first time in the 27-year history of the event, Mike Owen is not in attendance. Owen, who resigned as Missoula Sentinel's wrestling coach last summer, is watching his son Corey Owen at Dickinson State in North Dakota this weekend.

Mike's older brother John, who retired as the North Idaho wrestling coach, a few years back was also not in attendance. John, who has been at the meet the last few years, is now the head coach at Central Valley in Spokane. Don't be surprised if Central Valley is invited to the Rocky next year.

Even without John and Mike, there is still plenty of the Owen clan on hand. Bob is Polson's head coach, will Bill is the assistant. Donny is coaching University High, while Tim is the head coach at Ferris High.

On the 20 teams entered in the tournament, 17 had wrestlers in Saturday morning's semifinals. Missoula Sentinel, Hamilton and Ronan were the lone schools who didn't have a grappler in the title hunt on Saturday morning.

Fifteen schools had grapplers compete in Saturday's championship finals. Eleven different programs had wrestlers in championships. Kalispell, Butte and Libby were the only teams with multiple champions.
