BILLINGS - Charlie Klepps is returning to his old stomping grounds.

The Billings Senior High graduate and four-time Class AA state wrestling champion has been hired as the new head girls wrestling coach, according to School District 2 activities director Mark Wahl.

Klepps replaces Mickey Mahlmeister who resigned in early May and had coached the Lady Broncs since girls wrestling was sanctioned as a Montana high school sport two years ago.

"Charlie has a strong understanding of the Senior High wrestling culture which will allow him to continue the success the program has achieved in its first two years of existence," Wahl said.

Klepps has recently returned to Billings after graduating from Iowa State University where he also wrestled.
