Alexus Shaneyfelt also impressed, scoring technical falls against opponents from Carthage and Tiffin and a decision win over Alma's Camille Mitchell.
Other notable wins included Athena Calderon, who earned a decision over Tiffin's Lina Lingo and a forfeit against Carthage, and Phoenix Waters, who defeated Alma's Dawn DeGood by decision.
