The club was founded in the Fall of 1998. Through hard work and some dedicated wrestlers it was possible to get our program off the ground. The McNeese wrestling club became a member of the National collegiate wrestling association shortly after the University recognized us as a club. Through the NCWA we are able to offer a haven for Louisiana wrestlers looking to compete at the college level. The Club is currently competing in every NCWA tournament within driving distance ( 8-10 hours). And soon to be competing in duel meets when we build a large enough roster. McNeese state is one of the only colleges in Louisiana offering the great opportunity to do battle with other colleges. We work with wrestlers of all experience. The team has wrestlers with as much as 10 years on the mat to as little as 10 seconds on the mat. Every wrestler that comes to us, brings something that will help the team. We are looking to build some solid well rounded wrestlers with the desire to continue competing on the college level. The eligibility requirements are simply being a McNeese student in good standing and maintaining a passing GPA. The NCWA follows the NCAA guidelines as closely as possible on eligibility requirements with some exceptions because we are club teams and not NCAA. More info about the NCWA is available on the Internet address www.NCWA.net If anyone is interested in being apart of, or has any questions for, the MSU wrestling club contact Us via E-mail.. A note from the Captain: McNeese is an institution of higher learning. We enroll in our classes and pay our tuition so we can get an education. In my book school comes first. However, we are wrestlers and we do put forth the dedication, determination, discipline and attitude necessary to walk off the mat in victory. I enjoy teaching new wrestlers as well as helping to refine skills of seasoned wrestlers. I hope to see you on the mat!!! |
