Texas which is pretty new on wrestling, has both men and women's teams at a lot of the schools that offer wrestling. In fact I got an email from a gal that is being recruited by Cumberland and Mo Valley and she took 2nd in state losing 9-8.

As for girls/guys competing...I was at the FHSU open in 2000-2001 season with Aaron Lane and we saw this girl weighing in with the 157 pound guys or 165...regardless, she was there with her boyfriend who wrestled 184 for Missouri Valley, and she wanted to give wrestling the guys a go. She opened up the tournament by sticking some guy with a wicked *** throw and pinning him in :24 seconds....Lane looked over to me and said, "Hey, there's one guy that will probably eliminate himself from the public before you get the chance to get beat twice"
