USA Wrestling has developed an award within the Championship Belt Series to recognize the efforts of women wrestlers on the age-group levels.    The Women's Age-Group Championship Belt Series honors the achievements of female wrestlers on the FILA Cadet, FILA Junior and University levels. Included are USA Wrestling age-group national and international events.     At this time, the award will combine all three age levels together. As the schedule for each age group is expanded in the future, a separate award program may be developed for each age level. The top point scorer in the series receives a handsome plaque.     USA Wrestling will announce all eight 2001 Championship Belt Series winners, with one champion announced per day, from Christmas Eve through New Years Eve.    Women's age-group champion - Erica Dye, Elizabeth, W.Va.    Winning the 2001 Women's age-group Championship Belt Series was Erica Dye (Elizabeth, W.Va.) who scored 216 points, edging runner-up Brandi Rosenbrock (Warren, Mich./Shamrocks) by just two points.

Athletes who place in the major USA Wrestling events scored points in the series.    Each event is weighed according to importance and difficulty, in order to determine the most successful wrestler during the season. A wrestler also receives points for receiving the Most Outstanding Wrestler award and Most Falls award at the events.     2001 Women's Age Group Championship Belt Series Standings  1.
