The 17-year-old Bradford High Student is getting ready to embark on a trip of a life time. Casey Silkwood will head to Australia to take part in an 11-day womens freestyle wrestling camp designed train Olympic-caliber athletes. Casey is on the Bradford High School’s boy’s junior varsity wrestling team and is a 2009 United States Girls’ Wrestling Association state champion. She placed 6th, after having less than a month freestyle wrestling under her belt, at the Junior National Women’s Championship in Fargo, N.D.. As a result, she earned All-American status, caught the attention of college scouts and was eligible for elite training camps. She has a bright future and hopes to get a college scholarship. I look forward to hearing more about Casey Silkwood!
