Yeah, she’s a girl, but wrestling is the sport that matters in the Miller family.
Lizzie Miller concluded her first season of high school wrestling this weekend at the state championship tournament in Columbia. The Buffalo freshman finished the season 34-22 in the 106-pound division of Class 1 and was one of 16 wrestlers in her division to qualify for the state championship tournament. She has competed in wrestling from the age of 8.
“Both of my brothers had wrestled, and I wasn’t really into the girlie sports like basketball and volleyball, so I just kind of started wrestling one day and stuck with it,” Miller said.
