HYDE — The Clearfield girls wrestling team hosted and won its own Lady Bison Wrestling Tournament on Saturday.
Clearfield’s contingent of 10 girls were a combined 17-9 in the round robin format, scoring 129.5 points to easily outdistance runner-up Huntingdon, which recorded 90 points.
All 17 of the Lady Bison’s wins came by fall — 14 pins and three technical falls.
Finley Gilbert was the lone Clearfield wrestler to get five bouts and she made the most of it, going 5-0 with five pins to win the 124-pound weight class. Lady Bison 112-pounder Kylie Knepp put together a 3-1 day with two technical falls and a pin on the way to a second-place finish.
