Varsity Wrestling
Overview
The foundation of the Haverford School wrestling team rests on four major principles.
Firstly, we as Haverford wrestlers, are a family. This includes students at all levels, parents, siblings, and alumni.
Secondly, we seek to build wrestling skills and competency to compete at the highest levels and to reach our potential within the sport.
Thirdly, we will learn character and life skills that transcend the room and act as guides for us beyond the walls of this institution. We will do right by ourselves, our families, and our communities.
Lastly, we are student athletes, and we will embrace this role with dignity and humility.
