The RCHS Raiders were crowned league champions, the first time women's wrestling in this league has had enough participation to rise to this level of competition.
RCHS beat out Rodriguez High School, which hosted the duel, 30 to 27.
With this win, the Raiders women's team gets to move on to the CIF Sac-Joaquin Section's first-ever girls' team duels championships in its history on Saturday in Stockton.
"These girls train five days a week, three hours a day. They take tournaments every Saturday. They really give up a lot," Stevens said. "This sport, for one, teaches you how to overcome a lot. You have to make weight, you have to be accountable."
"Women's wrestling is growing at colleges every day. In California right now probably at least one of every two girls has an opportunity to wrestle in college," Stevens said.
"I think about what mistakes they make and how I can work through that in my match," Griffith said.
"I really wish this sport had grown a long time ago. But I'm so happy that it is now and I'm here to be a part of it. I get to tell my future kids I was a part of women's wrestling when it was booming," Griffith said.
"I can't not get up on my feet when I'm watching them compete," said Adeva. "I'm just thrilled to see not only her grow in the sport but the sport itself grow." Because in wrestling, a win for one girl is a win for all. The Sac-Joaquin Section Team Dual Championships will be hosted at Lincoln High in Stockton on Saturday, February 1.
