A question floated around the dinner table at the Raymond household in Randolph, Minn., recently.

From which parent do sisters Charli and Carter get their athletic talents?

Charli, a sophomore, is a four-time girls wrestling state champion at Simley with a chance to become just the second wrestler in Minnesota high school sports history to win six state wrestling titles. She’s also the recipient of the 2025 Star Tribune All-Minnesota Girls Wrestler of the Year award.

Carter, a senior at Randolph, is a Ms. Softball candidate, the reigning Star Tribune Metro Softball Player of the Year and Gatorade Player of the Year. She’s committed to the Gophers.
