In a chat show,the wrestling(摔跤)champion Audrey Jimenez,15,talks about being the only girl on her school's wrestling team in Tucson,Arizona.
Scope:How did you get into wrestling?
Audrey:I used to play softball and volleyball. About three years ago,I started jujitsu(柔术),which is similar to karate(空手道). My coach taught me a move called a takedown,which is a wrestling move. I loved it. I realized that wrestling seemed more interesting to me.
Scope:How did you start wrestling on a boys' team?
Audrey:When I started wrestling in middle school,my school didn't have a girls' team. My older sister managed the wrestling team at her high school and when they had meets,I went with her. She introduced me to the coach and told him that I'd like to start wrestling with the team. He was all for it,so I started practising with them. At the time,I was the only girl.
Scope:How did the boys react(反应)to you?
Audrey:They probably thought I wouldn't know anything,but when I told them about my background in jujitsu,they respected that. Still,no one came over to talk to me. They didn't really accept me at first — plus,they went easy on me,and I hated it. I felt like I wasn't learning anything. Once we became closer,I said to them,“Just go hard like you would do with anyone else. I'm no different.” Now we're friends. We hang out after school. We teach each other. We help each other in school,in wrestling,and in life.
Scope:What's been your biggest wrestling achievement so far?
Audrey:In May 2022,I won a women's national tournament(锦标赛)in Texas. Then in October,I won a gold in women's freestyle at the U15 Pan American Championships. I went undefeated in all three of my matches.
Scope:What are your hopes for the future?
Audrey:I'd love to go to the Olympics. I've also been encouraging more girls at my school to start wrestling. I did a wrestling demo(演示)at school one day with the boys so that the girls could see that they could do it too. Now we have a girls' team too,and I wrestle for both teams.
