The PIAA has a bylaw stating that 100 schools must offer a sport before it can be officially sanctioned. Despite the first program not being offered util March of 2020, Pennsylvania passed that mark in February of this year.
There will be an official state championship in 2024.
Pennsylvania is the 38th state to sanction girls wrestling.
