Hailey Cox, 8th grade student at Mapleton Junior High, has been wrestling competitively since she was in 3rd grade.  Not surprising for a girl raised by a wrestling coach father and who tumbled with brothers that wrestle competitively also.   Hailey focused her attention into “all girl” wrestling competitions, sending her to meets in Oklahoma and Reno, Nevada.    She was selected to participate in the Pan Am games which were recently held in Brazil.  She took first place in her weight and age group!  She then qualified for the World team which will compete in Slovakia, Russia in June of this year.  Hailey has some amazing accomplishments in her 14 short years of life, and will be sure to continue on this fantastic journey.  She is the daughter of Jodie and Billy Cox of Mapleton, UT.
