Argonaut High School wrestlers, senior Chris Serna and junior Hannah Collins both took individual gold medals at two tournaments the team sent wrestlers to Saturday.

Collins had another successful showing in Oakland at an all-girls tourney.

She was seeded No. 1 in the 189-pound division after taking second place Jan. 19 at the California Interscholastic Federation Girls Wrestling Championships, and she proved she deserved the No. 1 spot.

She pinned her way to not only first place but was named as the Outstanding Wrestler in the upper weight class, parent and girls wrestling promoter Toni Brown said.

Serna, Argonaut's varsity heavyweight, is light for most heavyweights and wrestles in the 215-pound heavyweight division, rather than the 287-pound class.

"It paid off on Saturday at the Sheldon Invitational. Brown said. Serna was the only Mustang to go undefeated and win the tournament.
