The University of Great Falls (UGF) wrestling team who is currently ranked number 12 in the country in the NAIA met up with the number 13 team MSU-Northern Thursday night in Havre Montana.

The Argo's shut out the Lights last wrestling season in Havre and they had something to prove this year.

The Dual started off with a forfeitt at 125 from Northern which put the Argo's up six to zero. The Lights would put up there first points of the night at 133 pounds with a win over UGF's Louis Caranza. A Havre native for the Argo's, Miles Mazurkiewicz, won at 141 pounds with a major decision.

Argo's Anthony Varnell lost a 2 to 3 match at a 149 pounds to Northern. Michael Hader would soon boost the Argo's score with a first round fall against Northern at 157 pounds.

Ross Mosher of the Argo's followed Haders fall with an amazing show of talent. Mosher would win the 165 pound match up by a technical fall.

The Lights got there second win of the night at 174 pounds against Noah Hatton from UGF.

The most intense match of the night was at 184 pounds where UGF Michael French who is currently ranked number one in the nation would meet the number two ranked Evan Hinebaugh from Northern.

The crowd was intense during this match, and the talent showed through the entire match by both wrestlers. French won the extremely close match 2-1 for the Argo's. French and Hinebaugh have wrestled multiple times in the past few season's and have yet to let the crowd down.

The Argos and Lights both showed up to wrestle on Thursday night. The crowd was on there toes during this whole dual. This dual will be one to remember.
