CHARLOTTE BARTIZEK/ FOR THE DALLAS POST Rebecca Wright practices with her teammates before a wrestling match at Lake-Lehman Senior High School. WRESTLER Continued from Page 9 She lost each of her first three matches on the mat, but ap- proached a breakthrough when she took a lead after a period against Wyoming Area and was still in a close bout before being pinned in the final 20 seconds. Williams pointed out that women’s wrestling is part of the Olympics and is offered at some colleges in addition to high schools in other parts of the country. Wright, however, has not yet seen any wrestling matches other than those where she is the lone girl competing with the boys. As the Black Knights pre- pared to pursue the District 2 Class AA Dual Meet Tourna- ment title this weekend, Wright was busy getting herself ready to help that pursuit as much as pos- sible. DANCERS Continued from Page 3 While much attention has been thrust on these competi- tions by shows like “Dance Moms,” the competition isn’t anywhere near as intense for this group. Sara Pizzo has been compet- ing for the last 10 years. “I love the atmosphere,” she said. “It’s exciting; you get an adrenaline rush and it pushes me to do bet- ter.” Carly Kappler said, “I wasn’t nervous because it was my fa- vorite routine - a solo tap routine - and it was the first time I won grand champion.” Enthusiastically, Jamie Bon- sall says, “The best part is to be together with my school for competition. We all get along and work together.” Eyes bright, shining with de- votion, Nick Oberst says of the competition, “I love it, all of it. I'll never get tired of it,” espe- cially now that he has $450 of prize money in his pocket that he hopes to use as a down pay- ment on a car or truck.

Lake-Lehman opened a gap again when Sutton scored the first five points and Spencer the next three in an 8-0 run in just 43 seconds for a 48-35 lead late in the third quarter. “We had a big start then that stretch in the third quarter built our confidence up again and gave us a little cushion to play with,” Lavan said.
