High school girls wrestling: Mountain Ridge, Cedar Valley prevail in competitive 6A Division meets

The 6A girls state qualifying divisional meets were held on Thursday night, with defending state champ Mountain Ridge and Cedar Valley winning their respective meets.

Mountain Ridge scored 292 points to win the Division A tournament at Riverton High School, with Corner Canyon in second with 261 points.

Mountain Ridge qualified 22 wrestlers for the 6A state tournament, which will be held on Feb. 12-13 at UVU.

In the Division B tournament, Cedar Valley tallied 288 points to edge runner-up Westlake, which finished with 268 points.

Cedar Valley finished runner-up in 5A a year ago, and despite making the jump to 6A it will be in the hunt for more hardware this year as it qualified 19 wrestlers for state.

Headlining the individual contenders at the 6A state meet is Syracuse’s Payton Gines, who is a three-time state champ looking to wrap up her career with a 4-peat.

She is 25-3 on the season and won all three of her matches at the division meet by fall.

Three other wrestler are chasing a 3-peat — Layton’s Brynlee Sorensen, Skyridge’s Madison Sherman and Corner Canyon’s Clairon Fager.

A quartet of sophomores will be looking to win a second straight state championship as they look to keep their 4-peat dreams alive: Corner Canyon’s Piper Eller, Copper Hills’ Naomi Kofe, Riverton’s Hannah Larson and Westlake’s Tevia Rarick.
