(Milan, Ind.) - All Milan High School students came out of their classroom at 11:40 on Thursday afternoon to surprise sophomore wrestler, Kayla Roell.

All students cheered as the high school band performed the school song for spirit. Co-wrestlers, Kaleb Wilburn and Carson Betz joined her at the top of the stairs to wish her luck and explain how she impacts the rest of the wrestling team.

Kayla is competing today in the High School Girls Wrestling State Championship in Kokomo, Indiana. She was crowned semi-state champion at 115 pounds last week in Muncie. 

Roell looks forward to showcasing all of the skills that she has worked hard for.
