New Mexico to offer girls’ wrestling championship in 2020
Add the state known as the Land of Enchantment to the list of states which will have a separate state wrestling championship for girl wrestlers.
The New Mexico Activities Association (NMAA) Board of Directors unanimously approved a proposal to sanction a girls’ wrestling division that will end with a state championship event beginning with the 2019-2020 school year, the organization which governs high school sports in New Mexico announced Thursday. “We are very excited that our Association will now officially offer a girls’ wrestling division that will culminate with a state championship,” NMAA Executive Director Sally Marquez said. “The sport has been growing fast all across the country, and we are happy to become the 18th state to sanction it.” This new championship is an outgrowth of an exhibition event which has been held each of the last two years in conjunction with the boys’ state tournament.
