WLBZ Interviews Female UMaine Wrestler After Winning National Title
WLBZ (Channel 2) spoke with first-year student Samantha Frank about becoming a 2015 National Collegiate Women’s Wrestling Association champion. The 105-pound Frank recently captured the crown in Texas. Frank, a nursing major who also is on the UMaine cheering squad, was voted most outstanding wrestler at the meet and earned All-American status. While the Windham High School graduate was the sole female wrestler for the Black Bears, her win catapulted UMaine to a fifth-place finish in the 15-team field. “Wrestling for Maine is huge because it’s home,” Frank said.
