The Dripping Springs Wrestlers had a banner day at the 13-5A District tourney. For the first time in the history of DS wrestling the girls had enough participants to vie for the district championship and responded with the title and sending all nine to regionals. Carson Crow, Addison Williams and Caroline Nix became the third, fourth and fifth to win individual titles in history. Not to be outdone, the boys, who have been at it longer, recorded their third consecutive title and for the first time in their history had all fourteen weight division wrestlers qualify for regional.
The event, which took place on Saturday, Feb. 5, saw both DSHS teams come away with first place.
All 14 DSHS boys qualified for the Region IV-5A Championships — for the first time in school history. The Tigers came away with seven individual, first-place finishes. All nine DSHS girls also advanced to the regional championships. All 23 Tigers earned a top three finish in their weight class.
The Region IV-5A Championships were held Feb. 11-12 at the Burger Center in Austin. Results to come.
