Froom The Capital-Journal:
SALINA — Rossville's Kendra Hurla and her coach Brandy Lowe watched Hurla's sub-state match with Paola's Kailyn Younger multiple times before Friday's Girls Division II State Wrestling Championships at Tony's Pizza Events Center.
Lowe and Hurla knew they had a plan to defeat Younger, who entered the championship match at 120 pounds ranked No. 1 and with a 26-1 record.
Hurla avenged a sub-state championship loss to Younger by pinning her in the second period to win her first state championship in her freshman season.
Hurla had her brother, Holden, looking down on her. Holden died on Jan. 1 (Holden Hurla Passes) and taught everything Kendra needed to know about wrestling. Holden was a three-time state qualifier at Rossville.
