A pair of area girls wrestling teams will hit the mat today in Brooklyn for the BGM Tournament. The Mid-Prairie Golden Hawks got the season started Tuesday with a big night at North Scott, finishing runner up with a team score of 147 points. They were powered by four undefeated champions including Ashlee Farrier, Ellie Brenneman, Marissa Cline and Sam Stacey.

This is the first event of the year for Highland. The Huskies feature four returning wrestlers who competed at last year’s state meet in Coralville led by senior MacKenzie McFarland with her 12-4 overall record, junior Angelina Roling back after a 12-9 season, Abbie Grout and Lilly Barre.

Joining the Hawks and Huskies today are Albia, Baxter, Belle Plaine, Chariton, Colfax Mingo, Des Moines Public Schools, English Valleys, Grinnell, Iowa Valley, Louisa-Muscatine, Mount Pleasant and the home Bears. Action continues all day Saturday at BGM High School.
