Lisbon Girls Wrestling Feature Story

For my final project in my Video Production course, I teamed up with classmate and friend, Sam Kupres, to create a three-minute feature story video on the growing Lisbon Girls Wrestling program. The program, which is currently in its second standalone season, has already sent a pair of wrestlers to the Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union state championships held at Xtreme Arena in Coralville, Iowa. This piece was made for our client, the Mount Vernon-Lisbon Sun newspaper, and was posted to their social media and YouTube channel.

Grappling for the Well in Wilton

The Class 1A District 12 wrestling meet was held on Saturday, Feb. 15, 2025 at Wilton High School in Wilton, Iowa. Wrestlers from 11 teams made the trip to Wilton, including West Branch, Highland, Iowa City Regina, Durant, Springville, Northeast, Lone Tree, Louisa-Muscatine, New London, English Valleys and the home Wilton Beavers. Wilton won the meet with 256.5 points. The top two finishers in each weight class qualified for the 2025 Iowa High School State Wrestling Tournament at Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines, Iowa the following week.
