State Tournament

For the 18th time in his 20 seasons at the helm, Brodie Kelly is leading his Butte Central Maroons boys basketball team into the Montana Class A State Tournament and this year's edition will get underway at 9am as they open play against the Dawson Country Red Devils in the Butte Civic Center.

Last weekend at the Class B & C Western Divisional Wrestling Tournament in Pablo, the Anaconda Copperheads did more than "show up"; instead, they let competitors know "what's up"! The tournament was a victory on many levels for Anaconda Copperhead contenders. So much so that several wrestlers from the Smelter City ceremoniously boarded a Tucker Transportation Bus yesterday morning to make their way to the State Wrestling Tournament in Billings! In true Copperhead style, a car rally led by loyal fans, parents, and the Anaconda-Deer Lodge County Police and Fire Departments, lined the streets to support AJHS wrestlers on their journey.
