DES MOINES, Iowa – Fort Hays State had three wrestlers place at the Grand View Open on Saturday, which included Isabella Renfro (180), Nichole Moore (138), and Josiah Ortiz (110). Renfro finished fifth in her class, while Moore and Ortiz placed sixth.

Renfro, Moore, and Ortiz all won three matches on the day to earn placement status. Lindsey Lopez (117) and Ashlynn Goodwin (138) also won three matches each, but fell just short of placement matches in their respective classes.

After dropping her first match to No. 6 ranked Naomi Simon of Iowa, Renfro received a forfeit win and then won by tech fall to reach the consolation semis at 180. She came up short in the consolation semifinal match, but received a forfeit win in the 5th-place match.

Moore battled her way to the semifinals at 138 with three-straight wins. Ranked No. 9 in the latest NWCA national rankings, Moore knocked off No. 6 ranked Cadence Diduch of Iowa in her first match of the day by an 8-5 decision. She won two more matches in a row to reach the semifinals at 138, including a win over a Top 10 ranked NAIA wrestler. However, she dropped three-straight matches in consolation action, including the consolation semi match to the No. 4 ranked NAIA wrestler Samantha Barragan and then the No. 3 ranked NCAA wrestler Nanea Estrella of Iowa in the fifth-place match.

Ortiz started her day with a pin before taking her first loss in the quarterfinals to No. 2 ranked Ava Bayless of Iowa. She bounced back for two-straight wins before dropping her final two matches, which included a loss to No. 5 ranked Emilie Gonzalez of Iowa in the consolation semis.

Sophia Shultz (110), Jamie Laswell (131), and Josie Houk (160) all recorded two wins on the day. Overall, Fort Hays State as a group recorded 27 wins for the day.Next up for the Tigers will be a double dual in Hastings, Nebraska on February 12.
