AT FIRST GLANCE 11 YEAR OLD VIRGINIA BURKETT IS LIKE ANY NORMAL HAPPY PRE TEEN.......BUT PUT HER ON A WRESTLING MAT, AND SHE TURNS INTO A TIGER......
THE SIXTH GRADER AT MOUNTAIN VIEW ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IN WYOMING IS ONE OF THE BEST YOUNG WRESTLERS IN THE COUNTRY..... IN FACT, LAST YEAR, SHE WAS RANKED NUMBER ONE.....

VIRGINIA ALSO PLAYS FOOTBALL, BASKETBALL, BASEBALL AND RIDES BULLS AND BRONCS IN LOCAL RODEOS, BUT IT'S WRESTLING AGAINST THE GUYS THAT REALLY LIGHTS UP HER LIFE.....
