Default Re: In the news - Interesting news worth reading on M/F wrestling

Interesting article and thanks. There are several high school girls at my MMA gym who take catch wrestling to learn a few extra tricks for their competitive matches in middle or high school. Occasionally I do practice rolls with them but since I'm much bigger, it's hard to get an idea of their true strength and ability. They seem to do well against high school guys closer to their size. In school competitions, I think they mainly compete against other girls. This is Texas, which for some reason is far ahead of other states in women's wrestling at middle, high school and college level. At my gym about a quarter of the wrestling students are girls. BTW, I take catch and kick boxing for exercise and fun; I'm way too old to be an MMA fighter.
