Dubuque, Iowa (Jan. 25, 2025) – The Buena Vista University women's wrestling team was at the inaugural A-R-C Women's Individual Tournament on Saturday, taking on some tough competition. BVU finished with three individuals named all-conference, including sophomore

Mogiga ended up placing third in her bracket, scoring 13 team points for the team's fourth-place finish. She won two matches by fall, ending the day 2-2. All matches on the day for Mogiga were hard-fought and led the way for the rest of the team.
