AHSAA wrestling: Weaver, Thompson win first girls titles; Thompson boys win, too

Weaver High School’s girls wrestling team captured the first-ever AHSAA State Wrestling Championship awarded for girls Saturday at Huntsville’s Von Braun Center, winning the Class 1A/5A division. The Bearcats had amassed 166 points in Friday’s action, which was enough to secure the title before Saturday’s matches.

Thompson’s girls also won a state championship in Class 6A/7A to give the Warriors a big-school sweep as the boys team claimed another crown – its ninth – in the 70th AHSAA State Wrestling Championships.
