Valley’s Angel Rios and Skyview’s Jaslynn Gallegos become first girls to place at Colorado state wrestling

DENVER — Pepsi Center in mid- to late-February never disappoints when it comes to making history. The 2019 state wrestling tournament proved to be no different. Usually on Saturday all eyes are geared toward the championship matches which take place later in the day. But in the morning session, the third round of consolation matches, there was vested interest across the arena bowl. Valley’s Angel Rios and Skyview’s Jaslynn Gallegos needed one win to make history. They both got that win. Rios won her match via forfeit from The Classical Academy’s Brendan Johnston and Gallegos pinned Moffat County’s Hunter Fredrickson in 59 seconds. She advanced to the third round of consolation matches with a 9-5 decision win over Eaton’s Alex Castaneda.
