With all of the athletic opportunities at Randolph, what made you want to become a wrestler? Have you had experience with wrestling before, or was this your first year to try out?

This is my first season ever wrestling. I’ve always loved sports and wish to continue playing them throughout high school and into college if time allows. Team sports have always been more appealing to me, but I wanted to branch out and try a more individual sport this year.


How does it feel knowing your are the first female wrestler to secure a victory for our Raider Wrestling Program?

It feels great to have started the first of hopefully many more successes for the Girl’s Wrestling program here at Randolph.


What are you most looking forward to for the rest of the season?

I’m most looking forward to simply getting out on the mat more. Going to practice and tournaments with my team, and building a stronger bond with my coaches and teammates.


What goals have you set for yourself and your team for this wrestling season?

My main goal for myself and my team is to try our hardest and get out there. As Coach Stroe told me at the Huntsville Invitational “90% of the match is getting on the mat and trying your hardest.”
