On Thursday, Green River will host Star Valley, a powerhouse program with the most state championships in Wyoming history. Green River, which sits second in all-time state titles, will look to test itself against the storied Braves program. The girls and junior varsity matches will start at 5 p.m., followed by the varsity boys at 6 p.m.

Originally, the Wolves were slated to host conference duals against Kelly Walsh and Natrona County on Friday and Saturday, but those matchups have been canceled as Kelly Walsh and Natrona County will not be making the trip.
