WELCOME to WILDCAT WRESTLING COUNTRY! The LAKE NORMAN WRESTLING PROGRAM is ON A MISSION! OUR GOAL AND DREAM is to BUILD a quality program that promotes OUR SCHOOL,THE COMMUNITY and EVERYONE INVOLVED! WE REALIZE THAT IT WILL TAKE A TON OF COMMITMENT AND A TON OF HARD WORK... but WE KNOW it can happen with the CONTRIBUTIONS OF MANY and an undying PASSION TO BE THE VERY BEST!

As head wrestling coach I want to invite you to take a peak at what we're doing and our "GAME PLAN TO BECOME THE BEST!" REALIZE THAT ANYTHING WORTHWHILE TAKES TIME so we expect many challenges along the way. That's why we need your help! We need your time, your financial contributions, your excitement, your attendance at matches and a belief level that all of this can happen and BENEFIT MANY!

WE CAN TRAIN TO BE THE BEST! Thats what we intend on doingand build upon the respectful success established by former head coach Eric Buckson.SPECIFICALLY, OUR MISSION is to build a SUCCESSFUL TEAM and PROGRAM and accomplish the goal of becoming STATE DUAL MEET CHAMPIONS!  Although many people don't believe we are a threat it truly doesn't matter.  As long as we continue to envision our mission, work hard to attain it and follow through it's just a matter of time!  In addition to developing our program we look to provide valuable information to our fans, teammates, parents, teachers, administrators and anyone who wants to promote the Great Sport of Wrestling.

WRESTLING- WHAT A GREAT SPORT!                              
“It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again because there is no effort without error and shortcomings, who knows the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the high achievement of triumph and who at worst, if he fails while daring greatly, knows his place shall never be with those timid and cold souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”    Theodore Roosevelt- A former wrestler!
