Sierra Vista wins 2nd straight 4A state wrestling title — RESULTS, PHOTOS
Sierra Vista won the Class 4A wrestling state championship last year despite not having an individual champion.
Even though Sierra Vista had built a significant lead heading into the championship matches at Saturday’s 4A state meet, the Mountain Lions went home with a little more hardware this year.
Makhi Clark (106 pounds) and Aidan Hernandez (126) won the individual titles, which helped Sierra Vista win its second straight 4A title at Western High with a score of 211.5 points.
“We talked a lot about peaking, and I think we peaked,” Sierra Vista coach Brett Terry said. “Peaking is wrestling the best at the end of the season, and we definitely peaked today, and it was the best tournament we wrestled.”
Faith Lutheran finished second with 132.5 points, and Silverado was third with 117.5,
The Mountain Lions had eight wrestlers reach the finals across 14 weight classes, which helped them build a lead of more than 70 points before the finals.
But having two individual champions to go with the team title made the championship a little sweeter, Terry said.
“You always want the kids to reach their goals; that’s our goal as coaches,” Terry said. “We’re here to create champions.”
Hernandez won the Mountain League individual title and defeated Cheyenne’s Matthew Salvador-Agabin, last year’s state champion, to claim the state title.
“I knew there was a game plan that I had to stick to,” Hernandez said. “It was really just staying focused and not getting caught up in the moment.”
Clark, who also won the Mountain League individual title, celebrated his win over Bonanza’s Joshua Martinez by doing a backflip underneath the spotlight of the center mat.
“We weren’t content, and we kept working,” Clark said. “No matter what, even if we won tournaments or lost them. It’s great, it’s a lot of hard work and dedication toward the sport.”
In other notable results, Silverado’s Zyon Trujillo won his third straight title at 175 pounds.
Western’s Colby Sulliban (132 pounds), Faith Lutheran’s Caden Cook (144) Coronado’s Wynn Philippi (215) and Desert Oasis’ Benjamin Young (285) repeated as individual champions.

INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. – It’s time to “free your heels” and embrace Tahoe’s winter recreation at the Nevada Nordic Freeheel Festival on March 7. Whether you’re a seasoned pro at cross-country skiing or snowshoeing, or you’re trying to get your feet wet, Saturday’s event is teeming with nature, brews, and camaraderie.
Travel North Tahoe Nevada (TNTNV) is teaming up with Nevada Nordic, Tahoe Multisport, Alibi Ale Works, UC Davis Tahoe Environmental Research Center, Nevada Division of Outdoor Recreation and other local partners in the wondrous Tahoe Meadows, providing attendees a chance to engage with outdoor recreation experts, check out free cross-country and snowshoe rentals, and more.
“We’re excited to see the Nevada Nordic Freeheel Festival enter its second year, building on last year’s strong community response. In collaboration with our local partners, this event is thoughtfully curated with residents in mind – offering free equipment for the day, expert instruction, locally crafted brews, and other experiences in a welcoming setting,” said Andy Chapman, President and CEO of Travel North Tahoe Nevada. “It’s designed to make it easy for residents to get outside, try something new, and bring people together. Events like this reflect the spirit of North Lake Tahoe and what’s possible when our community comes together.”
Along with opportunities to test out free demos and rentals, there will be live music, beer tasting and races.
Tahoe Meadows is known for its gentle trails, and is a popular spot for snowshoeing due to its flat terrain. This event, located near Chickadee Ridge, will offer stunning views of the surrounding mountains.
This family-friendly event is on the second to last day of the 10-day SnowFest winter festival that’s been taking place in the North Lake Tahoe area. It starts bright and early at 9 a.m. and will close out at 2 p.m.
“Nevada Nordic is thrilled to be a part of SnowFest again this year,” said Meghan Pry, Nevada Nordic Board Member. “We love sharing our passion for cross-country skiing and watching our community grow. We are proud to keep winter recreation accessible by offering free access to our 20km trail network. This is the perfect opportunity for our community to gather together and free our heels!”

A swarm of earthquakes has been rattling a remote stretch of central Nevada near Tonopah, including a magnitude 4.0 quake that hit near Warm Springs Tuesday morning.
Seismologists said the activity is typical for Nevada, where clusters of earthquakes can flare up in a concentrated area. “This is a very Nevada-style earthquake sequence. We have these a lot where we just see an uptick in activity in a certain spot,” said Christie Rowe, director of the Nevada Seismological Lab.
The latest magnitude 4.0 quake struck east of Tonopah near Warm Springs. The largest earthquake in the swarm so far has measured a 4.2.
What has stood out to researchers is the fault involved. Rowe said the earthquakes are occurring along a fault stretching along the southern edge of the Monitor and Antelope ranges — and that it was previously unknown to scientists. “We didn’t know this fault was there. It’s a new fault to us — not to the Earth, obviously — but it was previously unknown,” Rowe said.
For now, the earthquakes have remained moderate. Rowe said the lab would not deploy additional temporary sensors unless activity increases to around a magnitude 5 or greater.
Seismologists said they are continuing to watch the swarm closely as Nevada works to bring the ShakeAlert early warning system to the state. The program, already active in neighboring states, can send cellphone alerts seconds before shaking arrives. “For me, it’s a really high priority. That distance to the faults gives us enough time to warn people — and that can make a big difference in reducing injuries and damage,” Rowe said.
Seismologists encouraged anyone who feels shaking to report it through the U.S. Geological Survey’s “Did You Feel It” system, saying even small quakes can help scientists better understand Nevada’s seismic activity.
Experts said the swarm is worth monitoring but is not cause for alarm. They noted that earthquakes like the 5.8 that hit near Yerington in December 2024 typically happen in Nevada about every eight to 10 years, and said they will continue monitoring the current activity closely.
Nevada state court is the proper venue for reviewing whether KalshiEX LLC is improperly accepting sports wagers without a license, a federal district court said.
The Nevada Gaming Control Board showed that the state statutes under which it seeks relief don’t require interpreting federal law, Judge Miranda M. Du of the US District Court for the District of Nevada said in a Monday order. The board’s action is now remanded to the First Judicial District Court in Carson City, Nev., the order said.
The board in 2025 urged Kalshi, a financial services company, to get a gaming license, but the …
