Lights finally getting back on the mats

The Montana State University-Northern wrestling team had a break planned for just before the holidays. But due to some foul weather, that break got much longer than Northern head coach Tyson Thivierge would have liked.

Now however, the No. 3 Lights will look to shake off the rust at a tournament they’ve never been to before, and one that will feature some fierce NAIA competition. Today and Saturday, Northern will take part in the Missouri Valley College Invitational in Marshall, Missouri.

The Lights come into the double-elimination, invitational tourney having not wrestled competitively...
