Hi everyone, I'm a high school junior passionate about wrestling and looking to continue in college. Can anyone share insights on HBCUs with active wrestling programs or clubs? Keen to know more about the wrestling scene at HBCUs, so any info would really help with my college search!
Hello! It's awesome to hear about your dedication to wrestling and looking to continue it in college. When it comes to HBCUs with wrestling programs, it's worth noting that the availability might be different across schools, but there are definitely options out there. For instance, some schools, like Morgan State University, have club wrestling as an option, even if the school doesn't have an official NCAA wrestling team.
I recommend reaching out directly to the student activities or athletics department of the HBCUs you're interested in. They can provide the most up-to-date information on clubs and intramural sports offerings. Additionally, seeing if the schools have wrestling leagues or participate in local or regional competitions can also be a good indicator of an active wrestling scene.
Don't forget to check any student-led initiatives; sometimes students gather enough interest to start their own clubs if one doesn't already exist. Best of luck in finding the right fit for your collegiate wrestling journey!
