Anthony, you really hit the nail on the head. As a senior at Wabash who was on the team their freshman year, I can say this program is the real deal! The wrestling team has one of the best facilities in the country and a coaching staff who will do anything to make sure their athletes reach their goals on the mat and in the real world once they graduate. While I decided to hang up the shoes and put all of my energy and focus into my academics and professional development, I continuously recommend this school to every wrestler I coach or meet who is looking to be part of a national caliber team while also wanting to receive a world class education. If someone is looking to become a national champion at the next level and be part of a team that has continuously placed top 4 at the national tournament, Wabash is the place to be. If someone is also wanting to come out of school to begin a successful career, Wabash is an excellent choice as well. Last year over 80% of students who applied to law school were accepted and 100% of students who applied to medical school were also accepted. If a prospective student athlete is looking to enter other career fields, the Princeton Review just rated Wabash #1 against all schools across the country for their alumni network and internship opportunities. Since my student job on campus is in the career service's office, I interact with alums on a weekly basis and witness just how invested the entire staff is in making sure all students have the opportunity to have a summer internship, so I can say the college lives up to the #1 ranking. When I graduate in a few months, I will definitely reflect on how lucky I have been to attend this college and my roommates on the team who hold a mix of national qualifier and all-american accolades will do the same!
