PREP ROUNDUP Outlaw grapplers shine at Spokane; Border Battle looms Wallowa County Chieftain With both Wallowa and Joseph grapplers on bye, only the Enter- prise wrestling team was in action over the weekend. The Outlaws traveled to Spokane for the North- west Christian Invite. Enterprise placed ninth among the 19 teams that competed. Coach Troy Farwell’s “smalls” made a good showing. Shane Lund captured the title at 106 lbs., Cole Farwell placed second at 113 lbs. and Clayne Miller and Evan Johnson vied for the third and fourth places at 120 lbs., with Miller prevailing. “It was kind of fun to be away from the teams that we see most ev- ery weekend and see some different competition,” Farwell said. All three of the county’s teams will meet at Wallowa on Jan. 20 for the Border Battle tournament that features competition with Imbler, El- gin and Union from Union County. It’s a normal team competition, not a county competition, as the name suggests.
