Dodge City won the invitational with 200 points, but Tonganoxie finished as the highest-placing Class 4A team with 101.5.

Stella Bradley won gold for the Chieftains in the 115-pound division, while Autumn Wilson won silver at 120.

Bradley, a senior, went 2-0 in pool play. She won by fall in 57 seconds and 16 seconds in those matches. She went 5-0 overall on the day after bracket play. She won in the quarterfinals against Dodge City sophomore Miranda Alvarez (7-4) by fall in the second period (2:25) and then defeated Topeka Seaman senior Koti Best (10-1) in the second period (3:21) after Best exited with an injury. She then defeated Newton junior Avery Hinojos by fall in the first period (1:22) for the championship.

Wilson went 4-1 on the day. She advanced as the top wrestler in her pool at 120. The junior then defeated Shawnee Mission South junior Stella Segura by fall in the final period (5:13) and then lost to Lewis Central sophomore Avaeh Smith by an 11-5 decision. Smith is undefeated at 25-0 on the season so far at the Council Bluffs, Iowa, school.

Both Bradley and Wilson defeated the No. 2 and No. 3 rated wrestlers among all classes in Kansas, respectively. Hinojos is No. 2, while Segura is No. 3. Segura also is the defending state champion at 115 in Class 5A.

Kaylee Pankey also went 4-1.

Tonganoxie was without a couple starters, but THS coach Adam Ludwin said the team will be back at full strength for the new year.

Ludwin said that overall he’d like to see his team wrestle more fearless and not be intimidated with a tough tournament such as the Bobcat Classic. But he also likes where the squad is as it gets a much-needed break.

“The team overall is doing well on progressing and steady climbing,” he said. “They are improving every week and now I think we have our lineup fully figured out to have the best possible lineup.

“We had a lot of great battles today.”

Tonganoxie now enters into winter break, but will be back in action Jan. 9 for duals against Eudora and Basehor-Linwood at Chieftain Arena.
