The OFSAA Wrestling Championships are underway at TD Place, and more than 700 students from across Ontario are taking part in the largest high school wrestling tournament in the country.
After a hiatus of three years due to COVID, the tournament is back, and it has added more spots for girls.
"It's kind of overwhelming, but it's really exciting to know that I can be involved in something like this so young," said Blackshaw. “I like that you can always work on yourself and there's never a limit of how good you can get.” The tournament is more than just wrestling for some athletes. For Great Lakes Secondary School Grade 12 wrestler Abbagail Willis, the team environment helps her get through life situations.
