Chloe Snavely took home second place in her 97- to 103-pound division while brother Christian wrestled at 145 pounds. Phoenix Flores won three matches and lost one to take home third place at 125 pounds with this being his fourth consecutive medal in the state finals.

Last week, Flores had the opportunity to attend an elite wrestling camp at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colo. The five-day camp was put on by the Air Force Academy wrestling team and had some of the best wrestlers in the U.S.

Participants practiced in high altitudes and went on a five-mile hike into the Rocky Mountains.
