Audrina Wade wrestles for Benton High School in Benton, Louisiana. As a freshman she won the North Louisiana Girls Regionals at 132 pounds in February 2025, then took the 132-pound title at the LHSAA state tournament two weeks later. That was the first LHSAA state tournament with girls wrestling as a sanctioned sport. She pinned Laken Griffin of Live Oak in 39 seconds in the final and came in at 16-3.
In March 2025 she won both the Girls 16U and the Girls Open brackets at the Jr. Storm Battle on the Bayou. Two weeks after that she won the Open 125 to 130 class at the Louisiana Kids Folkstyle State Tournament at Raising Cane's River Center in Baton Rouge, entered by the Gladiator Wrestling Club.
Her sophomore season opened with five tournament titles, at the Ambush of Champions Invitational, the Haughton Lady Tournament, the Women's WAR GAMES, the Beeson Tournament and the Mustang Christmas Classic. She met Quetzicalli Guevara-Tapia of Lafayette in the 126-pound final of the Women's Louisiana Classic in January 2026 and lost 8-3. At the girls' state tournament in Bossier City in February she pinned two opponents and beat Naomi Cosgrove of Sulphur 14-3 in the semifinals. She trailed 11-2 in the final and closed to 11-9, losing to Guevara-Tapia, who finished the season 39-0.
In June 2026 she wrestled for Team Louisiana at the Women's National Duals in Westfield, Indiana, and went 4-2. She pinned her opponents at 125 pounds against Indiana Junior Blue, North Carolina Red and Arkansas. The wins over North Carolina Red and Arkansas were the first dual matches Louisiana had ever won at the event.
She is a junior at Benton, an LHSAA girls' state champion at 132 pounds and a state runner-up at 126.
