Trostle finished three opponents by fall, earning her a spot in the fifth place match against Duchesne’s Dakoda Keel. Trostle would get her fourth pin of the tournament, earning the fifth place podium.
In the 170-weight class, Rickelle Collins continued her impressive season with five straight victories in the tournament. Collins defeated all five opponents by fall, earning her a spot in the championship match. The match would go the distance in a hard-fought battle by both girls, ending in a close decision (7-3). Collins claimed the second place podium in her classification, improving her season record to 18-7. Litty Provost went 4-3 during the tournament, getting three wins by fall, as well as a medical forfeit.
