El Dorado senior Sharnesia Tate wasn’t satisfied with her second place performance at last year’s state wrestling tournament. So she did something about it. Tate notched a pin fall victory over Sylvan Hills’ Kylee Laird at the 2:39 mark to claim the 5A girls state championship in the 235-pound division Saturday at the Jack Stephens Center in Little Rock.
It was a banner weekend for El Dorado’s girls with Maddie Aguiluz, Katelyn Hayden and Destinee Smith all earning third place medals in their respective weight classes.
