State Duals: 4A girls

Dumas is still the queen when it comes to small-school wrestling.

The Demonettes won a second straight Class 4A State Dual title on Friday and it is three in a row counting the 2023 Class 5A title.

Dumas beat Canyon, 58-12, to win the Class 4A finals at Kay Yeager Coliseum in Wichita Falls in an all-West Texas final. 

Dumas and Canyon were tied at 6-6 and 12-12 after four straight pins started the dual. Elaina Morgan and Andrea Aguirre won for Dumas, while the Eagles got wins from Raleigh Blankenship and Haleigh Oglesby.

Dumas won the next eight to secure the title — six of those by pins. 

Ximena Giron (152), Jazlen Avila (165), Khylee Whalen (235), Kennedi Purcell (114) and Emmy Armstrong (120) each had a pin in the finals.

The third and final match of pool play was actually the closest match of the day for Dumas, a 46-21 over Canyon Randall.

The teams were tied at 11-11 after the first four matches but wins by Aguirre and Mariana Avalos (145) — both by pins — broke the tie for good. Aguirre was chosen as the Class 4A Most Outstanding Wrestler.

Dumas posted 72-0 shutouts over Springtown and Fort Worth Benbrook.

In the third-place match, a Canyon ISD matchup saw Randall beat West Plains, 51-12.

Rayna Guzman (126) and Allison Decker (132) won the first two matches and gave the Wolves a 12-0 lead over Randall.

The Raiders took the next three matches by forfeits, which was enough to win.

Randall beat Benbrook, 46-24 and Springtown, 60-6, to finish 3-1.
