BUCKS COUNTY, Pa - Girls wrestling is one of the fastest-growing sports in Pennsylvania and a Bucks County high school is finishing its first season competing.

Kristin Swartley and Jamie Harner are volunteer wrestling coaches for the girls wrestling team at Exeter Township High School. "Did you ever see yourself being a wrestling coach?" FOX 29 photojournalist Bill Roher asked the coaches. "No, never," Swartley said. "I am a wrestling mom and now I'm a wrestling coach." Last August, Exeter became the 14th school in Pennsylvania to begin a girls' wrestling team and Swartley and Harner are the first coaches. "I think in the beginning, Jamie and I were like ‘It’s going to be just us'" Swartley said.

The coaches posted messages on Facebook asking athletes from other sports to join. "We had one girl show up," Harner said. "We had another girl show up and then they just kept trickling in." Kathryn Berger, a senior at Exeter High School, said "I am always kind of around wrestling when I was growing up.

So when I heard that there was a wrestling team, I was like really excited to join." With more than 30 teams in Pennsylvania so far, Exeter is hoping the number will rise to 100 so girls wrestling can become a fully-sanctioned PIAA sport.

Imran Khan becomes Pakistan first prime minister to be voted out of power
ISLAMABAD: In a historic first for Pakistan, Imran Khan has been ousted as the prime minister of Pakistan from office through a no-confidence motion after the National Assembly debated on the matter for more than 12 hours and the political situation in the country took a critical turn.The session was chaired by Ayaz Sadiq — a member of the panel of chairs —  after speaker Asad Qasier resigned from his post.“174 members have recorded their votes in favour of the resolution, consequently the resolution for the vote on no-confidence against Mr Imran Khan, the prime minister of Pakistan, has been passed by a majority,” Ayaz Sadiq announced after the process of voting was completed. Once the voting was concluded and the result was announced, Opposition leaders delivered their victory speeches. The session has been adjourned till 11am on Monday, April 11.Despite the PTI government’s hectic efforts to avoid voting on the no-confidence motion against Imran Khan, the historic session of the National Assembly to decide his fate began on Saturday at 10:30am in line with the Supreme Court’s decision. The much-awaited session, however, witnessed at least four breaks with the government seeking some way out of the situation, but in the end, the Opposition was able to get their way.There were many deliberations that the Chief of Army Staff Qamar Javed Bajwa might be replaced, but Imran Khan refuted the reports, and nothing of the sort took place.Imran Khan was elected on August 18, 2018, and his term ended on April 10, 2022.
