TAMPA, Fla. - One Hillsborough County high schooler is showing the world that the sport of wrestling isn t just for boys.
As the first girl ever on the Middleton wrestling team, 14-year-old Bhavya Bansal has already won her first two matches. It was actually joke among my friend group. They were already in wrestling, a couple of my friends, and were like, Oh, what if like a girl was wrestling, if you joined wrestling, that would be so funny.
So, she did.

HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, Fla. I can t believe I m the one breaking barriers here at Middleton, 10th grader Bhavya Bansal said and she s doing just that.
Bansal is Middleton High School s first female wrestler, making history not once, but twice during her wrestling career.
The second instance came as the biomedical student and aspiring neurologist won her first match this week.
But not only does Bansal put up impressive victories on the mat, but she also is a high achiever when it comes to her education and extracurricular activities.
According to a press release, Bansal has a 5.5+ GPA and has a black belt in Taekwondo.
