Broadus wrestlers traveled to the frozen plains of North Dakota to compete at the Hettinger Classic last weekend. Broadus Coach Frankie Schoonover told us that North Dakota wrestlers use different weight classes than Montana, and also have more weight allowance, while weighing in the same morning as the meet, compared to the night before like in MT.

The Lady Hawks next found t...
