Marshfield girls wrestling wins fifth straight Big 8 Conference team title

The Marshfield girls wrestling program closed out its residence in the Big 8 by winning a fifth consecutive conference title. The Lady Jays, who will be a part of the newly formed Ozark Mountain Conference starting next year, had five individual champions and 12 top-four finishes.

Those high finishes helped the Lady Jays accumulate 238.5 team points, which was well ahead of runner-up Cassville’s 197 points. Nevada was third at 152 points. Seneca finished fourth with 110 points.

Marshfield got its first title at 110 pounds from freshman Carlynn Mynatt who went 3-0 with two pins and a major decision in the pool.

Fellow freshman Graclyn Hursh was up next for the Lady Jays at 115 pounds where she won her championship with two pins and a technical fall.

Seniors Camryn Elliott (130 pounds) and Isabella Kilgore (135 pounds) went back-to-back as well. Elliott was 4-0 with three pins and a major decision.

Isabella Whitlock won the final individual title for Marshfield at 170 pounds. The senior pinned all four of her opponents.

Cassville had two individual champions in Breanna Gordon (120 pounds) and Faith James (140 pounds).

Nevada finished third as a team but second in total individual champions with three. Averi Dawn (100 pounds), Ella Heathman (155 pounds) and Drew Leer (235 pounds) each won at their respective weights.

Fourth place Seneca also had two individual champions in Louzella Graham (125 pounds) and Isabella Renfro (190 pounds). Renfro won all five of her matches by first-period pin to improve her season record to 28-0.

Monett’s Mary Jastal (105 pounds) and Reeds Spring’s Kierstin Allen (145 pounds) rounded out the individual champions.
