The event, which took place on March 18 at Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Marion, Ohio, featured female youth wrestling competitors from throughout Ohio.

As a first-year competitor, her accomplishment as an undefeated state champion in the girls category was considered quite an outstanding achievement.

Sloan is a member of the Mechanicsburg youth wrestling club that gives elementary-level students an early introduction into the sport of wrestling that focuses on conditioning and technique.
