EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) -- Eastwood High School wrestling standout Hailey Delgado continues to add her growing list of accolades.

The 2026 U.S. Marine Corps Junior Nationals brought together many of the nation's top high school wrestlers for one of the sport's most prestigious tournaments. Wrestlers from across the country went in with hopes of earning All-American honors and a Fargo championship.

Delgado finished second in the 120-pound division at the 2026 U.S. Marine corps Junior Nationals in Fargo, North Dakota, earning Fargo All-American honors after an impressive tournament run.

The runner-up finish is the latest milestone for Delgado, who is already a familiar name in El Paso's high school wrestling community.
