  • Turkey hunting a Wyo. tradition since 1955

    From the Wyoming Game and Fish Department|Nov 24, 2021

    It wasn’t until 1955 when hunters could harvest the historic wild turkey in Wyoming. Hunters’ interest has continued to gain momentum since. With both fall and spring seasons to chase gobblers, hunters’ stealthy pursuits provide excellent food for their families and mementos of feathers, beards and spurs to commemorate the hunt long after. It all started in 1935, when the Wyoming Game and Fish Department swapped sage grouse with New Mexico for 15 Merriam’s turkeys – nine hens and six toms. The imports were released on the George Waln Ranch on...

  • Wolves close season with 51-7 loss

    Pete Rust, Contributor|Oct 28, 2021

  • Wolves take loss at home from No. 1 Cody

    Pete Rust, Contributor|Oct 21, 2021

    Green River hosted the Cody Broncs, falling to the No. 1 ranked and undefeated defending 3A State Football Champions, 48-20 Friday night. Considering how Cody has dominated every opponent to date, the Wolves may well have played their best game of the season without the services of three of their top players on offense and defense. Cody won the coin flip to start the game and elected to receive. After a good kickoff return Cody ran the ball seven times, showing why they lead the State in that...

    Pete Rust, Contributor|Oct 14, 2021

    Despite coming off two straight losses to the two top ranked teams in 3A, the Powel Panthers head coach in a pre-game interview indicated that his fourth ranked team was at its healthiest it has been all season and just had their best week of practice which turned out to not be good news for the visiting Wolves, who had some key injuries and were looking for their first win of the season.

    Pete Rust, Contributor|Oct 7, 2021

    Green River traveled north to take on the powerful 4-0 Jackson Broncs last week, suffering another loss at the end of the night. Jackson wasted no time in their first possession as they opened up their strong passing attack and took a quick 7-0 lead. The Wolves took over and ran six plays with the help of a 15-yard personal foul against Jackson, but Dylan Tayor ended up punting to the 35 yard line with Hayden Roberts making the tackle on Jackson’s receiver. Jackson would soon extend its lead to 13-0, unable to capitalize on a P.A.T., f...

    David Martin, Editor|Sep 30, 2021

    The Wolves took another loss Friday night as the Evanston Red Devils held them to only one touchdown during Green River’s homecoming game, winning it 27-7. While the Wolves’ previous outing with the Worland Warriors was a high-scoring contest, Green River’s meeting with Evanston was more defensive as both teams initially struggled to find the end zone. The Wolves were the first to receive, but were forced to punt as they sized up the Evanston defense. Evanston’s first possession of the game near...
