Hawaii was the first state to sanction Girls Wrestling at a high school level in 1998. Texas joined in during 1999, with Washington (2007) and California (2011) becoming the third and fourth state to sanction it as a varsity sport. In 2018, the sport began seeing rapid growth across the nation. The growth sparked a desire to begin pushing the sport into its own, stand alone identity, in the first state by the likes of Buddy Llyod (Boys Varsity Wrestling Chairperson - DIAA) and Vic Leonard (Creator of The Beast of the East & [[Delaware Wrestling Alliance]] Board Member). | Hawaii was the first state to sanction Girls Wrestling at a high school level in 1998.
