Greybull-Riverside won individual titles in the varsity girls and JV divisions and all four of its wrestlers won matches in the highly competitive varsity boys’ competition at last weekend’s Ron Thon Memorial Invitational in Riverton.
The Ron Thon is up there with the state tournament in terms of prestige. Just about every wrestler in the state attends, and with a format that renders classifications meaningless, each weight class becomes a competition to determine who is the best of the best in Wyoming.  To the winners, go championship belts.

Neither the varsity boys nor the varsity girls emerged victorious in their matchups with Tongue River, but Saturday was still a winning day for the Greybull High School basketball programs.
Between games, it was announced that the family of John Good had presented a $5,000 donation to the basketball programs to help cover the cost of the district’s “first meal out” policy.
The announcement referenced Good as “a big believer in high school basketball, as a parent, grandparent, school board member and as a broadcaster.”

Instead of rolling out the traditional sixth, seventh and eighth grade teams, Greybull Middle School head boys basketball coach Cadence Wipplinger opted to try a new approach, assigning players to A, B and C squads based upon their skill levels.
The early returns are encouraging — at least for the two older teams.

What will it take for the Greybull Lady Buffs to break out of the slump that seems to be hanging over their heads? They have been working on breaking the press, trying to keep the tempo of the game to their advantage, and improving their rebounding on both ends of the court.
But they continue to struggle.
Those struggles proved costly last weekend as they opened the conference season with losses to Rocky Mountain, 47-28 Friday, in the friendly confines of the Buff Gym, and then got shot down by Wind River in Pavilion Saturday, 64-38.

The Greybull Buff JV stands at 5-8 after splitting a pair of games over the weekend.
The Buffs opened the weekend with a 34-18 win over Rocky Mountain.  Carter Jacobs paced the team with 12 points, followed by Cord Edeler with 10 and Rex Cooper with seven.
“It was good to get a win against Rocky,” said Coach James Armel.  “They are always a well-coached team and their players run their system well.
“We had several players step up and help the team, as we dealt with injury, sickness and ineligibility.”
