 Girls wrestling has reached another milestone as three of the team’s athletes, Kaylee Scott, freshman, Avery Edwards, sophomore and Grace Cronk, junior, medaled at Districts and have qualified for State. This is the first time in the school’s history. The girls talk about how they feel accomplished because all of the time and work they put in paid off.

   “It felt amazing because I’ve worked at this sport for three years now, so just putting in all that effort and work and finally seeing a good reward felt very reassuring,” Cronk said.

  Scott talked about how she felt good when she won her weight class at districts and qualified for state.

   All three girls worked incredibly hard to get to this point in their seasons. Even though the girls come on top time and time again, they still have some challenges along the way.

   “I put all this work in, I show up in the morning, I stay after [school], and I have the technique and everything, I just can’t believe that I’m good enough,” Edwards said.

   With all the work put in and milestones reached, the girls will continue to work hard and push forward for the state tournament this weekend. Go Broncos!
