Libby Greenchain wrestlers Kyle Leir and Mitch Haugen have been selected to participate in the 4th Annual Tournament of Champions all-star wrestling event.

The event will be held in Great Falls, Mont. on Saturday at Paris Gibson Education Center.

Leir and Haugen won championship titles in their weight classes at last weekend’s All Class State Wrestling Tournament in Billings, Mont.

The law firm of Hoyt and Blewett PLLC in Great Falls is the event sponsor.

The single-elimination tournament will include three state champions from AA, A and B-C including an additional wild-card entry.

The semifinals will be held 10 a.m. The championships follow at noon.

Weigh-ins are scheduled for 8 a.m.

All wrestlers will be given a five-pound weight allowance over that required at the state tournament.
