OTHELLO, Wash. — Senior Lilli Marti, wrestling at 235 pounds, won four straight matches by pin, three of which came in the first round, as she grappled to an individual championship to lead the Lady Bulldogs to second-place finish out of 47 scoring teams at the Othello Lady Husky Invitational held Friday and Saturday at Othello High.
