SV Scuffle High School Girls Wrestling Loaded with State Medalists

On January 23, 2021 at Bakersfield’s Elite Fitness Center, the high school girls wrestling brackets at the SV
Scuffle Invitational were loaded with state medalists and qualifiers in action. Many including a state champion with
something to prove

The 126 weight class would be the envy of any national-level event, with three accomplished competitors
battling for the top spot.

According to the USA Wrestling/Flo rankings as of January 22, Adrienna Turner (4th
CA 111 in 2020) is the #1 wrestler in the country at 127, having amassed an impressive body of work during
the offseason. But the title went to defending state champion Adaugo Nwachukwu
(1st CA 126), who won in resounding fashion, 11-2.

Nwachukwu was ranked #10 in the country going in – likely due to limited action during the past 9 months.
She also pinned the country’s #16-ranked competitor Solana Mottola (3rd CA 126)
earlier in the day.

In a round-robin format, Turner also beat Mottola 4-2.

The 103 weight also featured three returning state qualifiers with Madison Avila
winning the title over Jalen Bets and nationally-ranked Kaelani
Shufeldt
finishing 3rd.

At 131, Janida Garcia (4th CA 121), ranked #2 in the country following a preseason
nationals title (Iowa) and undefeated run at Sunshine National Duals (Florida) in November, beat #14-ranked
Maci Avila of Nevada by fall.

Longtime youth star Isabella Marie Gonzales announced her intentions with a 3rd
place finish, pinning Izabella Evans (4th CA 126) in the consolation finals after
dropping a semifinals match-up against Avila.

143 was another monster weight class competition, pitting two state medalists in the finals with
nationally-ranked Taydem Khamjoi (8th CA 131) beating Nile
Jernigan
(5th CA 126 in 2019) by fall.

Two returning state qualifiers, Alexandra Lopez and Ximena
Pulido
, rounded out the top 4.

Kaiulani Garcia may very well be the best junior high school wrestler on the West
Coast – she’s already ranked #11 in the country as an eighth grader – and she posted a dominant 18-3 tech
fall over returning state qualifier Maria Dow in the 152 finals.

Also of note, Baoanh Duncan-Perez (3rd CA 170), ranked #8 in the country, took her
talents to the boys draw, winning three matches in impressive fashion and finishing 3rd at 182.
