    In the gold medal bout it was all Alo. She opened up her offense early against Russian opponent Ksenia Nezgovorova, scoring a takedown in the first 20 seconds of the match. Heading into the second period the score favored Alo 3-2, a lead she would extend to 9-2 by the final whistle, crowning her Cadet World Champion.
