Middle School Wrestling

7th–8th Grade • November – March

About the Program

Wrestlers in 7th and 8th grade can compete with PWR while also representing their middle school teams. Participation in both is encouraged and permitted, giving diverse coaching perspectives, increased mat time, and exposure to different competition levels. Middle school wrestlers practice with our advanced Black group in the high school wrestling room.

Please note: Participation in the PWR program does not automatically include wrestlers in their respective school's wrestling roster.
