Hugoton Brings Back Medals From Rocky Welton Invitational

None of the area teams contended for a team championship at the Rocky Welton Invitational this weekend in Garden City, but several athletes brought home medals.

Hugoton’s Colten Lissolo was the runner up at 220 pounds after a loss to Hays’ Cash Drylie 4-2.

Hugoton’s Lawson Fiss at 145 and Patrick Weaver at 152 both took third.

Hugoton placed 15th with 63.5 points. Ulysses was 17th with 49 and Liberal had 32 for 20th. Ark City won the event with 194.5. Garden City took ninth while Hays was 11th, Dodge City was 12th, and Great Bend was 18th.

This was the final Rocky Welton Invitational in the Garden as they will move the event to the new high school gym next year.
