WATCH: Two games, two different stories. @Thompsonbaseba1 head coach @CoachFrankPerez talked about his team’s split against Hewitt-Trussville, how big @WyattWilliams_1 was on the mound and how the Warriors will move forward to try and advance to the state title series.
🚨 Area Champions!
Your Warriors claim their third Area Championship in the past four years and secure a fourth consecutive playoff appearance. A complete team victory from start to finish.
The Warriors are headed to May baseball. #GTBH#WNU#SurviveAndAdvance
This was not an upset, this was a hose job. So many things went wrong here - a young women's national championship run was halted due to false accusations and a refusal to stand up for what was right. @NCAA has some explaining to do. @NCCwomensWR@FloWrestling#justiceforkaelani
#3 Kaelani Shufeldt (North Central) had something happen in the 110 lb NCAA Women’s quarterfinals that no wrestler should ever face.
With a lead and a trip to the semifinals on the line, her opponent appears to bite herself, yet Kaelani is blamed and disqualified from the tournament- eliminating any chance at the podium.
A moment that should have been about advancement instead turned into a travesty.
At this level, this should never happen.
A wrestler was robbed of a major opportunity.
This needs to be addressed.
