Wrestlers fly the flag in Katikati
Sport
Dannii Sargent Featherston Amateur Wrestling Club attended New Zealand North Island Championships held in Katikati in the school holidays. An impressive team of 15 ranging from primary to college age from across the Wairarapa attended and brought home with them 16 medals. For six of the 15 wrestlers this was their first national tournament. Taine and IndieMay Sargent impressed, bringing home gold medals for their age and weight in their first national tournament. Equally as impressive and also wrestling for the first time competitively were Audrey and Sylvie Soto each with silver medals to start their collection. CharliMarie and Ashyln Sargent fought hard to
earn bronze medals in what was also their first national competition. As always, Haami Telford, Lucas Sargent and Seb Hopkins brought home gold medals to add to their already impressive wrestling medal repertoire. Hard-fought silver medals were earned by Tommy Read and Wairangi and Macy Sargent. Lucas Sargent had a challenge on his hands to move up a weight grade and add a silver medal to his gold. Angus Read and Spencer Telford had a tough day at the office in what were tough weight grades to each come home with a bronze medal. Seb Hopkins made an impressive fifth moving up several weight grades to challenge himself, meeting some of the best wrestlers in the country.
