Five female members of the Oak Harbor High School wrestling team took part in a “scramble” Wednesday, Dec. 6, at Mount Vernon High School.

The scramble was one of a series of events hosted periodically throughout the season at various schools for any girl wrestlers who want to compete.

Elizabeth Clairmont led the Wildcats with pins in both of her bouts.

Ella Erikson and Grace Chargualaf each split their two matches, and Cheyanne Wenchester and Taylor Cress both went 0-2.
