When we use our voice to speak up, we’re signaling to others it’s okay for them to speak and use their voice too. ⁦@KretzerMya⁩ fought for girls high school wrestling in Kansas. After four years, she won and we won. Thanks ⁦@lizclarketweet⁩ washingtonpost.com/graphics/…

In Kansas, girls didn’t have a wrestling championship of their own. Mya Kretzer changed that.

For many female wrestlers, the toughest challenge is finding opponents.

Of all the interviews I’ve done on the subject of girls hs wrestling this one is the best. This is a longer forum discussion. It lasts about 30 minutes and really gives depth to the why. I hope you listen and shared! I challenge @WrstleLikeAGirl to push this out to all platforms!

Enjoyed having @dkretzer on today's show to talk about girls wrestling becoming Kansas' 23rd State Championship sport. Great insight on the entire process of passing girls wrestling through @KSHSAA and the future of the sport in KS. You can listen here: bit.ly/2vrbyCH
