YVCC’s women wrestlers set to take to the mats
October 31, 2008 by YH-R Sports
YAKIMA — A group of Yakima Valley women wrestlers will launch the college’s program Saturday against Pacific University in a dual meet at Fife High School.
The Yaks, in their first season of women’s competition, will not field a complete team according to co-coach Mike Schmitt. Ranks have been depleted by injuries and ineligibility, he said, but the program expects more women wrestlers next month.
Especially impressive in workouts so far, Schmitt said, have been Monique Dilliner from Oahu, Hawaii, and Cady Chambers from Bethel High School in Spanaway.
Dilliner hopes to compete at 158 pounds and Chambers will wrestle at 112.
The YVCC women’s team is scheduled to make its home debut Dec. 16 against Simon Fraser.
