High school girls wrestling: Defending 5A champ Wasatch narrowly wins Division A meet, Northridge triumphs in Division B meet

Wasatch took a big step on Thursday night in its quest for a girls wrestling 3-peat in the 5A state qualifying meets.

The Wasps tallied 245 points to capture the 5A Division A title at Box Elder, edging the champs by just 12 team points.

Wasatch qualified 19 wrestlers to the 5A state tournament that will be held at UVU on Feb. 12-13.

Among its top challengers will be Thursday night’s Division B champ, Northridge. The Knights racked up 246.6 points to finished ahead of runner-up Salem Hills’ 221.5 points.

Northridge qualified 18 wrestlers to the state tournament.

Wasatch won last year’s title with relative ease as it beat Cedar Valley by 51 points. The Aviators are now in 6A, which opens the door for a new top challenger this season.

One of the top individual storylines to watch in the 5A state meet will be Eva Zimmerman’s quest for a fourth individual title. Zimmerman is 32-0 on the season at 115 pounds.

Wasatch’s Marabelle Brown is chasing a 3-peat at 130 pounds.

Seven other wrestlers are looking to repeat as state champs: Hillcrest’s Katie Zimmerman, Hillcrest’s Caroline Pastrana, Salem Hills’ Rachel Jensen, Salem Hill’s Ruby Lindstrom, Salem Hills’ Avery Winterton, Hillcrest’s Eleni Nonu and West Field’s Brooke Deeter.

Deeter won her title in 4A last year.
