Girls sweep top spelling bee spots

MOHAVE COUNTY – Girls swept the top three spots in the annual Mohave County Spelling Bee. Top spellers from 21 schools in northwest Arizona faced off for the January 24 spelling championship in Kingman.

Mariyah Rosales, a fifth grade student from Manzanita Elementary in Kingman, topped the field for the title. Rosales correctly spelled “topography” and “obstinate” to win the bee in the 20th round of the competition.

Sixth grade student Aryssa Mullins from the Mohave Accelerated Learning Center in Bullhead City was second. Juniper Rubio, an eighth grade student from White Cliffs Middle School in Kingman finished third.

Rosales qualified to represent Mohave County at the state Spelling Bee championship on March 20.
