We extend our congratulations to Farrah Crossno and Bodie Adams, who have been named the River Valley Democratic-Gazette / Prep Rally Women’s and Men’s Wrestler of the Year. 😊

Bodie and Farrah compete in Freestyle wrestling with RVFA, adhering to the principle that summer dedication translates to winter success.

Farrah, a senior at Greenwood under Coach John Kincade, boasts three Arkansas State Championships and holds the title of 2026 State Outstanding Wrestler.

Bodie, a senior at Sallisaw under Coach Mark Smith, is a two-time Oklahoma State Champion and 2026 State Outstanding Wrestler.

Both athletes plan to pursue careers in commercial aviation with Farrah set to attend flight school in Fort Smith next year before transferring to an aviation program, and Bodie will join Northeastern State University's inaugural men's wrestling team while working towards his aviation career.

Congratulations are in order for Farrah and Bodie. 💙🥳💚
