Once again, USA Wrestling will publish regular updates on the 2023-24 state high school champions for both boys and girls.


Winning a state high school title is an amazing achievement for a high school student-athlete. We will post the champions from official state high school championships for boys, as well as the girls who have won official state high school titles, as well as the recognized state competitions which are not run by their state high school association. We will also post the team champions at the state level as available. As available, we will include the state champion’s year in school and final record.


This week, we add the Alabama girls state champions, who competed in Birmingham this past weekend. Daphne won its third state team title in the last four years, led by state champions Alanah Girard (100), Emily Smith (114) and Kalyse Hill (132).


The DCSSA, which runs high school wrestling in Washington, D.C., ran its Girls Invitational this past weekend, featuring athletes and teams from the surrounding area. We once again include the champions from this Invitational in our state champions list.


State champions will be updated on a weekly basis until the state championship season has been completed in mid-March.
