Greensboro – This past weekend the Lady Devil wrestlers competed in the first State Wrestling Championships for female wrestlers. The experience itself was golden for Swain, as they continued a year of massive growth for their sport. Swain did not have any State Champions crowned. Jessica Lowman was the only Lady Devil to place on the day. Lowman turned in an impressive 2nd place finish in the 120 weight class, with her sole loss coming to Reagan Riddick of First Flight. Results for all of our wrestlers are listed below.
