GREEN RIVER – Last night the Wolves and Tigers faced each other for the third time this year as the first day of regionals. Despite the difference in seeding, Green River was 2-0 against the Rock Springs boys this year, winning both the Blood Drive and Make-A-Wish games.

This week the Tigers knew that they had to turn things around. In Regionals, you must win two games before you lose two games to qualify for state next week, and losing the first game makes the road a lot tougher when you have to win two games in a row.

The Tigers did turn things around though yesterday and defeated the Wolves 47-34. The Tigers move on to the semi-finals in the championship bracket while the Wolves move down to the Third Place bracket where they would need to win three games in a row to secure third or win the first two and lose the third for fourth place which still qualifies them for state.

The Rock Springs boys play Jackson today at 7:30 p.m. and the Green River boys play Cody at 1:30.
