Leslie Tamayo - Wrestling Official

It is my pleasure to platform Leslie Tamayo, a wrestling official from Tucson, Arizona! Leslie has officiated matches at the collegiate and international levels and is a leader in her field. We had a great conversation about the nitty-gritty of moving up on the mat, as well as how Leslie meets the challenges of motherhood and her full-time job alongside the pressures of officiating. Leslie will be working at “Fargo”, otherwise known as the U.S. Marine Corps Junior Nationals, July 9-18. She talks about the significance of this event and how she’s seen the number of women officials rise over the years. It’s a great convo! Enjoy :) ---------- Do you want to become a sports official?
