WHY WRESTLE...

Life lessons start on the mat. Our wrestling program is designed to help student-athletes be successful in LIFE. We believe in the value of setting goals, working hard, seeking challenges, persevering through adversity and never giving up. Wrestling is a unique sport that prepares people for what the real world is like:

• Improves self confidence and the belief that anything is possible.

• Teaches young people to respect themselves and others.

• Promotes excellence and encourages athletes to set goals.

• Builds personal accountability because the athlete alone is responsible for the outcome.

• Develops integrity, discipline, and a strong work ethic—traits that will last a lifetime.

• Exposes athletes to positive role models. Wrestling’s alumni have gone on to achieve success in every field.
