Although now preceded by other events, the Montwood Madness dual tournament has long been considered the unofficial start of wrestling season by many El Paso wrestlers in years passed.
Montwood Head Coach Oscar Norez kicked off the 23rd year of the event on Friday, November 18th, welcoming teams from surrounding areas and travelers from as far as Boys Ranch (located northwest of Amarillo) on the boys’ end of the bracket and Lewisville Flower Mound for the girls.

With football season wrapping up for most El Paso teams, more wrestlers were able to attend this week’s tournament. (NOTE: El Paso Eastwood and Pebble Hills competed in area playoffs this weekend).
