Rohini Rules Again For Maharashtra, Gayatri Gets Maiden National Wrestling Gold
1 2 3 Nagpur: Maharashtra's most experienced grappler and reigning Asian Games gold medallist, Rohini Khanu Devba of Kolhapur, won all the bouts she played without conceding a point to underline her supremacy in the Chief Minister's Cup U-15 National wrestling championship, which concluded at the indoor stadium of Divisional Sports Complex in Mankapur on Sunday. Maharashtra grapplers managed to clinch just two gold medals on the concluding day, with Haryana wrestlers stealing the thunder of the home state by winning the overall championship in all three categories. Maharashtra finished second by marginally falling short to Haryana in both the boys' and girls' freestyle events and in the Greco-Roman boys' group. While Maharashtra started their campaign on a high on Saturday, the home state grapplers fared poorly on the concluding day. The face-saving gold medals that Maharashtra won came in the girls' freestyle category, where Rohini lived up to her top billing, and Gayatri Shinde from Shirsodi village of Indapur Taluka in Pune, registered a thumping triumph. As many as five Maharashtra grapplers managed to reach the finals on Sunday but missed the India bus by losing their bouts.
