AREA SPORTS BRIEFS: Port Angeles kids place at state wrestling meet

Peninsula Daily News

PORT ANGELES — Port Angeles youth wrestlers took home hardware in the Washington State Wrestling Association Kids Folkstyle finals held in Centralia last weekend.

Chloe Snavely took home second place in her 97- to 103-pound division while brother Christian wrestled at 145 pounds. Phoenix Flores won three matches and lost one to take home third place at 125 pounds with this being his fourth consecutive medal in the state finals. He will enter Port Angeles High School next year.

Last week, Flores had the opportunity to attend an elite wrestling camp at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colo. The five-day camp was put on by the Air Force Academy wrestling team and had some of the best wrestlers in the U.S.

Participants practiced in high altitudes and went on a five-mile hike into the Rocky Mountains.
