CONGRATULATIONS to Freshman Eelynn Hayden on becoming the Lady Mustangs’ FIRST Girls Regional Champion!
The First Region wrestling tournament saw three local grapplers claim region championship spots, a few others found themselves as runners-up in their weight class, and several more landed podium spots and advancements to the state meet this weekend.
Paducah Tilghman, McCracken County, Calloway County and Caldwell County all brought teams to the First Region Championship meet on Saturday at Paducah Tilghman High School with 19 wrestlers from the four local schools advancing to state.
From McCracken County, Camryn Freiberg landed in the fourth place spot in the 138 pound weight class and Cade Turner finished third in the 157 class, both strong enough to advance to state.
All of these 19 strong First Region wrestlers will continue their season for one more weekend as they make the trip to the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington this weekend fora shot at a state title in their respective weight classes.
As for team scores, Union County won the meet with 339 points, Tilghman came in second with 254.5 points and Christian County took third. Caldwell County put up 95 points, McCracken County scored 62 and Calloway County scored 53.
