This is the fourth season of sanctioned girls wrestling in Kentucky. In our data:

| Season | Girls who wrestled | Teams |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2024 | 466 | 90 |
| 2025 | 664 | 105 |
| 2026 | 851 | 116 |

That’s almost double in two years. What’s changed in your room? More girls, girls-only practices, a girls coach, more dual meets? And what still needs to change?
