DES MOINES, Iowa — The Life University women's wrestling team delivered a resilient, hard-earned performance Sunday at the Grand View Open, posting a runner-up finish, a fourth-place result, and multiple bonus-point victories across both Gold and Silver divisions against one of the nation's deepest open fields.

Life's top finish came in the Silver 145-pound bracket, where Netavia Wickson powered her way to a runner-up showing. Wickson opened the tournament with a decision victory before rattling off back-to-back technical falls in the quarterfinals and semifinals to earn a spot in the championship bout. She finished the day with 17 team points after falling in the title match.

Also in the Silver division, Alicia Serratos turned in a standout performance at 110 pounds, finishing fourth while accumulating a team-high 20.5 points. Serratos rebounded from an early loss with a dominant consolation run, winning five straight matches to reach the third-place bout. Her day included six falls and a decision, showcasing both endurance and finishing ability.

In the Gold division, Zayla Vann (145) made a deep run through the bracket, opening with a technical fall before adding a tech fall and a pin in the consolation rounds. Vann advanced to the later stages of the tournament and finished with seven team points.

At 138 pounds, Christina Jaen battled back after an opening-round setback with consecutive falls in the consolation bracket, including a quick pin in just over a minute, before her run came to an end. Teammates Jordyn Chrisco and Lexy Pabon also competed at 138, with Chrisco earning a technical fall in the championship bracket and Pabon responding to an early loss with a fall in consolation action.

At 131 pounds, Tiyanna Mack opened her day with a dominant technical fall and added another bonus-point victory in the wrestlebacks, while Morgan Sacharczyk (Silver) picked up a fall to contribute valuable team points.

Additional wins came from Kennedy Russell (124), who recorded both a technical fall and a decision in the Gold bracket, and Alyssa Quezaire (103), who earned a technical fall in consolation competition against a tough field. At 180 pounds (Silver), Anetra Witherspoon added bonus points with a fall and a technical fall during her tournament run.
