Williamson<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"dropcap\">Most women simply aren\u2019t encouraged to participate in male-dominated sports. Even the few who do won\u2019t get the opportunity to represent their country in the Olympics.<\/p>\n<p>But Victoria Anthony may be the exception. The 24-year-old freestyle wrestler said she\u2019s been competing for 10 years and has had her mind set on the Olympics since she was a child.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->As a result of Anthony\u2019s determination and diligence, she won the 2016 Dave Schultz Memorial International at 48 kg\/105.5 lbs.<\/p>\n<p>Most wrestlers must win this tournament in order to qualify for the Olympic Wrestling Team Trials. For Anthony, however, it was just practice since she had previously qualified for the trials, which will be held in Iowa City, Iowa on April 9-10. But to guarantee a spot on Team USA, Anthony has to win this two-day tournament as well.<\/p>\n<p><strong> <em>Anthony started as a judoka <\/em> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While Anthony has excelled as a wrestler, she got her start in a martial art: judo. When she was six years old, she said she watched her father and sister train and wanted to imitate them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was just like a little kid running around,\u201d Anthony said. \u201cI\u2019m really competitive and have a lot of energy. I\u2019ve always been kind of hyperactive. I just really wanted to get into [judo] if I was going to be there anyway watching.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Anthony also attended judo clinics held by mixed martial artist and Olympic bronze medalist Ronda Rousey. Since then, Anthony has aspired to compete at the highest level.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s just always been my goal, and it never really seemed like something out of reach,\u201d Anthony said. \u201cBut I know I\u2019ll have to work to get there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Before Anthony began high school, an accident sent her down another road: She broke her wrist while practicing judo and needed surgery. So she transitioned to wrestling, where she knew could be successful because of her experience in a combat sport. She was reluctant to join at first because she would only be wrestling men, since there wasn\u2019t a women\u2019s team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt would be like social suicide to join the boy\u2019s wrestling team,\u201d Anthony said. \u201cIt was just a strange, outsider thing to do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But after watching a demonstration during physical education, the Huntington Beach, California native noticed a few similarities between the two sports and decided to join the team anyway. As she became more skilled in wrestling, she began competing nationally during her senior year, she said.<\/p>\n<p>Although Anthony is no longer a judoka, she said she still aspires to be the best.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy goal has always been to be an Olympic gold medalist,\u201d Anthony said.<\/p>\n<p><strong> <em>Puerto Rican wrestler looks ahead to future gold\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_28975\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-28975\" style=\"width: 474px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-28975 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/news.medill.northwestern.edu\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/02\/SheykalizStruggles-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Sheykaliz Cintron\" width=\"474\" height=\"316\" srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/medill.wordpress.offload\/WP%20Media%20Folder%20-%20medill-reports-chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/02\/SheykalizStruggles-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/medill.wordpress.offload\/WP%20Media%20Folder%20-%20medill-reports-chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/02\/SheykalizStruggles-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/medill.wordpress.offload\/WP%20Media%20Folder%20-%20medill-reports-chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/02\/SheykalizStruggles-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/medill.wordpress.offload\/WP%20Media%20Folder%20-%20medill-reports-chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/02\/SheykalizStruggles.jpg 1100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-28975\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sheykaliz Cintron attempts an escape during her final match.
