Breaking News: BMS starts a Girls Wrestling Team!

On March 12th 2012 Benicia Middle School started their first practice for a newly developed Girls wrestling team.  The Coaching staff has always welcomed the ladies attending Benicia Middle School to join the wrestling team but have realized that many were hesitant on joining the team.  They had an idea of starting a girls team. With women's wrestling on the rise, Benicia wrestling didn't want to be playing catch-up. 

The sport of wrestling has been around for a very long time and womans wrestling has maintained a steady increase since it's start.  In the last several years womans wrestling has exploded with many college programs popping up across the nation.  California Interscholastic Federation(CIF) took notice of the woman's wrestling explosion and held their first CIF sanctioned State Tournament in 2010.

Many questioned if anyone would show up to the first practice, but the coaching staff had faith and the girls showed up.  We had 8 ladies show up the first day of practice and each practice the team has added a few more who found out about the team. 

Coach Smitty said, "This is an exciting time for women's wrestling.  Women's wrestling has had a sharp increase in participation in the last several years and Benicia needs to jump on board to build a great program." He added, "This is a first for Benicia Wrestling. We hope to grow this program into a highly competitive team as well as help the girls transition into High School wrestling with a great basic knowledge of the sport." 

The girls team will attend several girl only tournaments throughout the year.

If you are a young lady attending Benicia Middle School come by and see if you have what it takes to be a LADY VIKING!
