After winning championships at the state wrestling tournament in Upper Marlboro, Brunswick High's Kate Virgilio and Seth Crawford are this week's guests on The Final Score podcast.
With a 12-8 victory over Smithburg's Rileigh Romberger in the girls championship match at 120 pounds, Virgilio became a back-to-back state champion for Brunswick. Last season, she won the title at 115 pounds. Meanwhile, Crawford beat Francis Scott Key's Jesse Owings by an 11-2 major decision in the Class 2A-1A championship bout at 150 pounds to win his first state title and fulfill a lifelong dream.
Virgilio and Crawford chat with host Greg Swatek about their championships and their journeys to them. What was the most challenging part about them? What was the most rewarding part about them? What sort of goals do they have in the future? And how did they ever find themselves on a wrestling mat in the first place?
Prior to that conversation, FNP sports reporter Alexander Dacy joins Greg to talk about Hood College bowing out of the NCAA Division III men's basketball tournament in the Sweet 16 in Hartford, Connecticut and look ahead to the spring sports season in Frederick County.
