Fort Hays State Women’s Wrestling had 15 individuals compete unattached in the first-ever Bob Smith Women’s Open on Sunday (Dec. 3) at Gross Memorial Coliseum.

Goodwin went 4-0 in her 32-person bracket at 143 pounds. She did not surrender a point until the championship match, picking up two 10-0 tech falls in her first two matches of the day and a quick fall in 19 seconds in the semifinals. She knocked off Anastacia Fucci of the Colorado State wrestling club in the championship by a score of 8-2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cadden and Bloomer both went 3-0 on the day. Cadden was part of an 8-person bracket at 136 pounds and Bloomer won a 4-person round-robin format at 170 pounds. Both had impressive paths to their individual titles on the day. Cadden surrendered nothing to her opponents on the day with a 10-0 tech fall in the opening round, a pin in 35 seconds in the semifinals, and another 10-0 tech fall in the final over Apollonia Middleton of Colorado Mesa in the final. Bloomer dominated as well, scoring a 13-2 tech fall in her first match, then a pair of pins in 55 seconds and 1:46 to claim the title of the round-robin format. Goodwin, Cadden, and Bloomer gave the Tigers a perfect 3-for-3 performance in matches where an FHSU wrestler reached the finals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Third-place finishes went to Arianna Ortiz<\/a><\/dfn> (101) and Katelyn Schmidt<\/a><\/dfn> (143). Ortiz went 3-1 on the day and dominated in her wins, scoring a 10-0 tech fall in the first round before moving to the consolation bracket with a semifinal loss. She bounced back for another 10-0 tech fall and then pinned her opponent in the consolation final in 3:26. Schmidt went 3-1 on the day as well, scoring a 10-0 tech fall in the first round before getting pinned by the aforementioned Fucci in the semifinals. She bounced back with a 1:35 fall and an 11-3 decision to claim third.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fourth place finishers for the Tigers were Isabell Ortiz<\/a><\/dfn>(116), Chloe Mader<\/a><\/dfn> (155), and Lyndsey Buechman<\/a><\/dfn>(191). Ortiz was 3-2 on the day in a 32-person bracket, while Mader and Buechman went 2-2 in 8-person brackets. Ortiz scored a tech fall, fall, and decision for her three wins. Mader had a fall and a decision for the day. Buechman’s pair of wins were falls, and she came up just short on criteria in a 2-2 tie in her placement match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
