COVINA – The Northview girls wrestling team hasn't caught up to the boys team in championships or storied history, but the girls team is starting to carve out its own history in the fast-growing sport. Northview defeated Corona, 37-34, Wednesday night to win its second consecutive CIF Southern Section Division 1 duals meet championship. It was the second year in a row Northview defeated Corona in the finals, and it's the third straight time the two teams met in the finals. Northview's Lexi Garza, top, defeats Corona's Savanna Melancon in a 101 pound match during a CIF-SS Division 1 girls dual meet wrestling championship at Northview High School in Covina on Wednesday, February 1, 2023.
