Beth Johnson from Garden City wins the Bronze! She is an All-American!! Following her match she shook hands with everyone in sight! As for me, I insisted on a hug!

Beth is a great wrestler that represents the State of Kansas and does so, very well. Even in defeat, while she is clearly disappointed, she is always respectful to her opponent and officials.

I visited briefly with Mike Furches after Beth had wrestled. He says that Beth may be the classiest wrestler in the State!! I might have to agree.
