Chatfield set to host girls-only wrestling tournament on Jan. 28

Chatfield is preparing to host a second girls-only wrestling tournament next weekend.

This comes on the heels of the highly-successful female tournament put on by Frederick last weekend. That event, the first of its kind, drew 80 girls from 42 different schools.

Chatfield’s event is slated for Jan. 28. Previously-announced girls-only tournaments planned for Highlands Ranch and Silver Creek have been cancelled, so this is the next opportunity for girls to compete at this type of event.

Just like with the Frederick tournament, girls interested in attending the event must be members of their high school teams. But they do not have to have been members since the beginning of the season — they need to have five practices in prior to competing.

Coaches interested in the event should contact Michael George (michael.george@kiewit.com) or Paul Peronard (peronard.paul@epa.gov).
