GIRLS

PRIEST RIVER — Lexie Larson (80) won an individual championship and the Lady Bullpups picked up six second-place finishes on their way to a second-place team finish at the Jerry Lamb Memorial All-Girls District Championship held Dec. 4 at Priest River Jr./Sr. High.

Quinlan Bunge (80), Nina Tajan (86), Kylie Boecker (98), Delaney Montgomery (104), Elka Heuser (110) and Evie Hamilton (151) all grabbed silver medals while Annmarie Knobbs (110) and Addison Hyder (116) wrestled their way to bronze. Fiona Naples (104), Jordyn Plue (110), Allison Fruhwirth (130) and Evie Hamilton (151) were all fourth for Sandpoint, which scored 166 total points.

Kiera Blaine (98) was third for Priest River, which placed 12th amongst the 14-team field with 34 points.

147 girls competed at this year's championship, 47 more than last year. Moscow, which only had five girls compete last season, had 36 wrestlers and won the team title with 200 points in their first season as an official program.

"With Moscow's addition of girls wrestling, their success wasn’t an accident," Sandpoint head coach Valerie Johansen said. "It came from giving girls an intentional, well-planned, equitable space to compete. When the environment changed, the results followed. They didn’t just win matches; these girls became distinct champions in their very first season. They proved what we’ve been saying all along: when schools invest in girls, girls succeed. They follow the roadmap, and they find the finish line. We are very happy for Moscow and we hope that teams will continue to follow. As for Sandpoint, obviously, we want to be on the top of the podium. However, this was a younger team that worked very hard and I could not be more proud of them."
