Iowa Lakes Women's Wrestling made history as they saw their first piece of action in Steven's Point Wisconsin as they competed in the Pointer Women's Open.
This marks the first time that a female has put on a singlet and competed for the Lakers in the school's history.
The nine ladies that took the mat for the lakers were:
Alex Koep - 109 lbs
Kylie Hessenius - 116 lbs
Alex Carty - 116 lbs
Savanna Galindo - 116 lbs
Isabel Jues - 143 lbs
Leilana Kollasch - 155 lbs
Morgan Griffin - 170 lbs
Emma Gomez - 191 lbs
Anika Vasquez - 191+ lbs
Coach Corey Muniz had this to say about the effort from his ladies on this historic day, "Hey, we fought hard. That's about all you can ask for. To say any one got the results they wanted isn't correct but there was an excitement to get back onto the mat and get ready for our next opportunity. These ladies know that regarless of it all, they did something special today and now are trailblazers for the amazing things to come for them and this program. I can not express in words just how proud I am of them and how excited I am for their future in this season and this sport."
The Lakers make their home debut against top ranked Indian Hills on Wed, November 8th, at 6:00pm.
