Locals compete in first girls wrestling tournament

Some wrestlers were challenged with a major decision late in the year.

Girls wrestling is not a sanctioned sport in the NYSPHSAA, which means girls interested in the sport have to wrestle boys in their specific weight class.

On Saturday, some of those girls that do wrestle had the opportunity to participate in the first ever girls invitational hosted by Section VI. That also meant, that if they qualified for state, they would have to choose the state meet or the invitational, they could not compete in both.
