OAKLAND ” As expected, the CIF Federated Council voted Friday to go ahead with high school girls regional open wrestling tournaments beginning in January.
The two-day, double-elimination events ” one held in the north and the other in the south ” will take place Jan 20-21 but will not be considered state championships.
The two-year pilot program will feature 32 brackets in 14 weight classes. CIF estimates 1,200 girls will participate.
