St. Andrew’s-Sewanee School sophomore Abby Mainzer won the gold medal at the state wrestling tournament on Feb. 14–15. Zaferah Fortune, a freshman, placed fourth.
Seth Horton and Hannah Dempsey also represented the Mountain Lions. Both were eliminated after Friday’s matches.
Abby had been dominant for most of the season, winning her first tournament and sweeping her competition at the Mountain Top Invitational. In addition to pinning her way through the finals, she had to overcome two competitors who had already beaten her earlier this season. She finished the season with an 11-4 record.
Zaferah, who started the year with back-to-back losses, turned things around, winning her first match at the Mountain Top Invitational. She recorded two pins on her way to the state medal rounds. McLain Still coaches the team.
