CCX Sports Spotlight: Girls Wrestling
For the first time the state high school wrestling tournament in Minnesota will feature girls divisions this year.
This week in our CCX Sports Spotlight we profile two female wrestlers who hope to be part of the tournament.
Park Center senior Ro Adeduntan and Armstrong sophomore Amelia Hermanson wrestle for their teams with mostly boys.
Each has been wrestling for four years now, and Adeduntan has placed second twice in female only non-high school state tournaments in the offseason.
When Armstrong wrestled at Park Center January 14th, Adeduntan and Hermanson each won varsity matches that night.
There will be twelve weight classes at the state tournament for girls, with four entrants in each bracket.
Qualifying meets will be held Saturday February 19th.
The state tournament for girls will be held Saturday March 5th at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul as part of the overall state tournament.
