Guthrie competed in the 5A NW Region with seven qualifiers. In the team competition, Guthrie finished runner-up to Guymon.
Brant Machtolff, Cade Guggisburg, Caleb Sanders, Seth Dean, Christian Blassingame, Dalton Freshour and Justin Dutton qualified individually for state and will pull, push and squat in the large class (3A-6A).
