MARSHALL, Mo. – In one of the biggest women’s wrestling tournaments in the country that featured 610 wrestlers representing nearly 30 different schools, Nichole Moore and Lexie Lopez of Fort Hays State placed at the Missouri Valley Open on Saturday (Nov. 23). Moore placed third in the 138 bracket, while Lopez was fifth in the 124 bracket.
Moore wrestled the most matches (10) of any FHSU wrestler in the tournament, posting a record of 9-1 to finish third. She reached the quarterfinals of the championship side of the bracket before blazing her way through the consolation side for a third-place finish. Her only loss was to Viktorya Torres of McKendree, the preseason No. 3 ranked wrestler in the NCAA at 138, by a 3-1 decision. For her nine wins in the tournament, Moore put together a mix of three falls, two tech falls, and four decisions. Her fastest fall of 30 seconds she recorded in her first match on Friday and then capped her weekend with a strong 10-0 tech fall over Madeline Barton of Quincy University.
Lopez was right behind Moore in amount of matches wrestled (9), posting a record of 7-2 overall. Lopez won her first two matches before running into Shelby Moore of McKendree, the No. 4 ranked wrestler at 124 in the NCAA. Lopez won four more matches in a row before a loss to Joanna Vanderwood, the No. 3 ranked wrestler in the NAIA, in the consolation semifinals. But, Lopez bounced back for a 7-3 decision over Cali Leng from the University of Iowa in the fifth-place match. Lopez had five decisions and two tech falls to account for her seven wins.
