BUTLER TWP — One more deep breath, and perhaps Braylee Ireland could’ve nailed her shoot and turned the match around.
It’s another lesson for Knoch 124-pound junior after her fourth-place finish in Saturday’s Butler Girls Wrestling Tournament at Butler Intermediate High School.
Ireland trailed 4-0 in the second period against Saegertown’s Leah Sample in the last match of the day as helpers deconstructed other mats around them. But an escape and takedown tied the match heading into the third period.
She couldn’t hold Sample, who started the period in the down position, to fall behind 5-4, but she bided her time to find an opening for one last takedown.
Unable to find one and with about 20 seconds left, she made a last, desperate move and couldn’t connect. Sample held her to the mat, and Ireland added another note to her checklist of things to work on ahead of the postseason.

“I felt really good out there for the most part,” she said. “My last shot was definitely desperation. … Clock in my head went a little bit faster than the one on the screen.”
It was a marked improvement for Ireland, who faced Sample, an honorable mention at 124 pounds in the latest pa-wrestling.com rankings, once before and was pinned in the third period, she said. More steady gains, and Ireland hopes she can get the better of Sample next time, perhaps in a few weeks.
Ireland went 3-2 Saturday in one of the tournament’s deeper weight classes. She picked up two pins after a first-round bye before losing by technical fall, 17-0, to Cannon-McMillan’s Marlee Solomon, who also beat Sample and went on to win the bracket. Ireland then earned a 16-5 major decision victory to set up her final match with Sample.
“I felt like today went really well,” said Ireland, who is 17-6 this season. “I’ve been starting to get into a lot of really good offense and just doing what I’ve been going over in practice, so I felt really good today.”
She has set her goal, after an injury-plagued sophomore season, of making the PIAA Girls Wrestling Individual Championships in Hershey in March. The postseason, which starts with the WPIAL tournament, is weeks away.
“I feel really good going into this postseason, I’m really excited,” she said.

SV’s Hornick having fun
Seneca Valley’s Hannah Hornick thought she'd wrestle for just a year, fulfilling a promise to her dad.
Three years later, she finished second at Saturday's tournament and is preparing for the WPIAL championships in a month.
Hornick cruised through the 170-pound bracket — she had a first-round bye before pinning her first two opponents. But in the final she ran into familiar foe Davaya Truman (Erie) and was pinned in 1:50.
“I’m happy about (the day overall),” Hornick said. “I wrestled her before, and I obviously I wanted to win but it’s good. I’m happy I’m wrestling her now when it doesn’t fully matter.”
This is Hornick’s third year wrestling; she originally didn’t plan to do more than one.
Her father wrestled growing up and suggested she should try wrestling if Seneca Valley ever started a program. She promised to do so. So three years ago, when the Raiders did, she joined.
“I would have never expected to do it for more than one year,” the SV junior said. “Yeah, I hated it in the beginning. … I just did it more for the fact of doing it. But I ended up liking it.”
She was not the only Raider to make the podium Saturday. Sophomore 100-pounder Everly Harrell went 3-2, losing twice to Shaler’s Blythe Letters, including a second time by tech fall, to finish fourth. Senior Maddee Fischer also went 3-2, losing by pin to South Park’s Anna Duncan in the 130-pound third-place match.
“I felt pretty good. I lost to the same girl twice,” Harrell said. “I think I fought hard.”
Seneca Valley had the best finish among the three local teams in attendance, coming in ninth with 68 points. Butler was 14th (46) and Knoch 24th (23). Canon-McMillan won the team title with 168.5 points.
Butler tournament appears successful
There were 27 girls teams at Butler Intermediate High School, a big jump from December 2023, when the tournament ran in conjunction with the boys JV tournament. More schools also meant steeper competition.
Harrell noticed the caliber of talent was “definitely a lot better this year than last year,” she said. “There’s a lot of different girls, more schools, so there’s a lot more competition, for sure.”
Saturday’s high school girls tournament was the first of its kind in Butler County. Butler, Knoch and Seneca Valley are the first three schools to form varsity girls wrestling programs, with Slippery Rock set to start fully next year. More could develop in the coming years.
For Butler coach Nathan Bottiger, Saturday was a chance to hold a tournament that could draw the type of caliber that will compete in the PIAA West Regional in a month while also showcasing the sport to a younger generation of girls.
“We really have put together a really good emulation of what the western regional could look like,” he said, adding he received positive feedback by a few coaches during the day. “I think we’re seeing a lot of the top talent at this tournament.”
