Greensboro, NC - It was an historic day inside Reynolds Gymnasium on Saturday, as the Greensboro Women's Wrestling team hosted Southern Virginia University in its first home dual match in program history.
Hailie Misplay,
Genesis Chinchilla, and
Liya Veal wrestled for Greensboro, while Misplay would win her match against SVU's Andrea Castro by Fall. Misplay entered today ranked #10 in NCAA Division III in the 136 pound weight class.
Chinchilla would lose her match against Grace Royster, but later won an exhibition match. The Knights won the match by a score of 34-5.
After the match, Misplay said of her performance, "going into all my matches I try to keep a calm mindset and not get too worked up about it. Trusting the training that we do...training up to two hours everyday, I trust the process going into the match. It's all about having that calm mindset."
On January 27th, the Pride wrestle in their last regular season match of the season when they travel to Southern Virginia University for the Southern Virginia Open.
