Pomona's Persaeus Gomez learned from Pan-Am games amid quest for three-peat copreps
It’s clear to see how much Persaeus Gomez’s time in Buenos Aires, Argentina, shaped her wrestling journey to Ball Arena.The 120-pound junior out of Pomona High School has learned plenty since she lost in the final for Team USA at the Under-17 Pan-American Championships last June.
In her semifinal bout against Canon City’s Kate Doughty, Gomez hardly broke a sweat as she secured a bid to a third consecutive state final match in three seasons. She picked up an early takedown 20 seconds into the match, and secured a three-point near fall 60 seconds in. From there, she just needed 10 more seconds to secure the pin.
Pomona’s Persaeus Gomez beats Canon City’s Kate Doughty in the semifinals at the Colorado State High School Wrestling Championships at Ball Arena on February 17, 2023 in Denver, Colorado. Where does that strive for perfection come from? Her father and the head coach of the girls’ program, Vic. It also helps that she gets to practice with three younger brothers, one of whom, Silas, reached the quarterfinals at 113 pounds in his first state tournament appearance Friday.
