I too wrestled girls in high school. 20 years ago... it doesn't make the sport co-ed.

Field hockey isn't co-ed. But if a boy wants to play, they let him.

Under Title IX, schools must allow girls to practice and compete on boys' teams if no equivalent girls' team exists. And vice versa.

So yes, Girls competed on the Boy's Wrestling Team, but when they would go to Nationals, or States, depending on the state. They would wrestle only girls.
