Trailblazer Kristi Mann honored for elevating the sport of wrestling in Arkansas

LITTLE ROCK (KATV) — The National Wrestling Hall of Fame Arkansas Chapter has a new inductee that has left an impact on multiple levels of wrestling.

In a sport where males tend to dominate, Kristi Mann says she saw a lane to help push the sport forward.

She was also one of 10 of women selected by the Department of State to represent the U.S. as a sports exchange delegate in the Republic of Azerbaijan.

Kristi Mann stopped by Little Rock ARC to talk about the impact she had on the sport and the honor of being selected as a sports delegate for United States.
