The Perry High School girls wrestling team enters the season with the same relentless work ethic and competitive fire that has long defined athletics in Perry. Already known as one of Oklahoma’s most tradition-rich wrestling communities, the town’s legacy continues to grow through the rapid rise of its girl’s program. What started just a few years ago as a developing squad has evolved into a confident, cohesive, and increasingly dominant team ready to take on the state’s toughest competition.
This year’s group features a balanced mix of returning standouts and determined newcomers, giving the Maroons depth across multiple weight classes. Veterans bring valuable mat awareness and postseason experience, helping set the team’s tone during early practices and helping guide the younger wrestlers through the sport’s relentless grind. Their leadership has been essential in shaping a culture where accountability, intensity, and improvement are constant expectations.
The younger wrestlers, many of whom come from strong junior high backgrounds, have added energy and excitement to the room. Coaches have praised this group for quickly adapting to the high standards of high school wrestling, embracing difficult practices, and showing noticeable growth with each session. With several talented underclassmen poised to make immediate impacts, the future of Perry girl’s wrestling appears exceptionally bright.
What truly defines the team, however, is its chemistry. The wrestlers push one another, celebrate one another, and carry themselves with the pride that comes from representing a community where wrestling means more than just wins and losses. Their unity has strengthened the daily grind, turning long practices and challenging drills into shared steps toward a bigger goal.
The Maroons will compete in a demanding schedule that includes competitive tournaments and matchups against many of the state’s strongest programs. With a team built on toughness, discipline, and unwavering determination, Perry aims to continue its upward climb and establish itself as a consistent contender on the state level.
If this squad’s early focus is any indication, the Perry girls wrestling team is ready to make significant noise this season, continuing a proud tradition while forging a new chapter of success in one of Oklahoma’s most storied wrestling towns.
