While I was sitting in the stands at the Northwest Tournament, I had an idea. Why not start a "trophy" for our wrestling team. We were wrestling our neighbors to the east (Field HS) and to the west (Ellet HS). I started calling the match "The Backyard Battle." I made up a small fence-like trophy and had a MHS student paint the fence in each schools colors.
Ellet defeated Field in the first match of the night. Then we went on to defeat Ellet 35-30. The match was tied 30-30 going into the last match. My 103 pounder scored a tech fall 20-5 to win the match for the Cats. Then we cruised to an easy win over Field 35-22 to win the first Backyard Battle.
