Emily Shilson and Macey Kilty have become a tandem of domination.
After each of them claimed Cadet world titles, they went back to Fargo last week where their hands triumphantly continued to be raised in victory. Shilson’s return to the top of the podium this year cemented her name even deeper into the annals of history as she claimed her fifth straight Fargo title to tie the performance of Teshya Alo. Shilson claimed both the Cadet and Junior freestyle women’s titles in 2016 and 2017 then claimed the Junior title this year.
On the way back to the top she gave up just two points. But it didn’t much matter, as she still got the technical fall. In the end, she had five tech falls all of which came in the first period to win another title.
Check out Shilson’s dominant performance in the finals to win her fifth title:
On the other side of things, the fellow world champion Kilty won her fourth title. Her first title coming in the Cadet division in 2016 at 108 pounds before she placed third in the Junior division that same year. She came back the next year and not only claimed titles in both divisions but also took home both Outstanding Wrestler awards. This year she didn’t have a match make it past the two-minute mark as she shut out each of her opponents to win another title.
