    Alo, Hutchison, Surber win women's freestyle titles at U.S. Nationals/Trials Qualifier

    LAS VEGAS -- Champions were crowned in the first three women's freestyle weight classes at the U.S. Nationals/Trials Qualifier at the Las Vegas Convention Center on Friday.

    In a battle of youth against experience, 2014 Cadet World champion Teshya Alo of the Titan Mercury WC defeated 2012 Olympian Kelsey Campbell of the Sunkist Kids in the 58-kilo finals, 8-1.

    Alo had a strong first period, jumping to an 8-0 lead at the break. She scored a takedown and challenged the officials call, and won, getting two more points on a tilt to lead 4-0. Later in the period, Alo got another takedown and an exposure for four more points. The second period saw strong defense by both wrestlers, with Campbell scoring on a pushout for the only point.
