    Ron Thon: Bornhoft sisters finish 1 – 2 for Wind River – Trembly suffers first loss of the season

    Ron Thon was a  teacher and wrestling coach at Riverton High School. A graduate of Niobrara County High School in Lusk, Thon was a wrestler for the Nebraska Cornhuskers and taught and coached at Wind River before arriving in Riverton.

    The Ron Thon Memorial Wrestling Tournament was named in his honor after a lifetime of service to Riverton at the middle school level and as the varsity wrestling coach.

    The Ron Thon is the largest wrestling event in Wyoming and is considered a tougher tournament than the all-class state tournament held in Casper next month since the best from Class 2-A, 3-A and 4-A meet in each of the 14 boys’ divisions.

    This year, the girls had a bracket of their own for the first time.

    In light of the extremely tough competition, there were few Fremont County boys who placed individually, but the girls’ bracket was much more representative of the county’s six wrestling schools.

    AnnaBeth Bornhoft of Wind River was the lone Fremont County champion, winning the 115-pound class with a pin over Rhonda Auradou of Pinedale.

    Molly Bornhoft made the first move – {h/t Randy Tucker}
