Our mission is to help student-athletes achieve success in all aspects of their lives, both on and off the mat. We do this by being positive role models and through a dedication to excellence in all that we do.
We focus on three key areas:
Academics: We believe in "student first, athlete second." Academic success is a top priority, and we expect every athlete to maintain good grades.
Character: We cultivate mental toughness, a growth mindset, and strong character. We foster a safe and supportive environment where every wrestler can develop into their true self.
Athletics: We train and develop world-class wrestlers who compete at the highest levels, striving for success at the state level and beyond.
Ultimately, our goal is not only to build champions but also to develop responsible student-athletes of character who will leave this program as contributing members of our community.
Teamwork and Positivity: We are great partners. We push and support each other so that we succeed as a team. A rising tide raises all boats – we learn, win, and succeed as a team.
Health, Safety, and Well-being: We watch out for each other.
Respect, Dignity, and Sportsmanship: Treat everyone with respect and dignity in all situations. Follow the Platinum Rule: Treat others how they want to be treated.
Integrity and Responsibility: We own our actions, words, and thoughts. We hold ourselves and others to our program’s values. We are responsible for the outcome of our efforts. We do the right thing when no one is looking.
Focus and Proactivity: We sacrifice free time and distractions to advance our goals. We place long-term success above short-term gain. We look for opportunities to move our collective goals forward and help the program.
Fun: We take ourselves seriously, but not too much.
