Over the past decade, female participation in high school wrestling has surged locally and nationally.

The one good thing about making "student athletes" go nearly 3,000 miles to play weekday conference games? More chances for more people to see USC's JuJu Watkins.

Due to the expanded Big Ten conference, the East Coast got a chance to see college's new star:

At 15, she skated for Team USA. At 42, she’s still fighting it.
