General Philosophy
We believe that Stanford wrestlers should dare to
“have it all.” This is one of the main reasons they
choose Stanford: it offers the best of everything. We
are committed to the idea that a student can achieve
the highest goals in the classroom, while also
becoming a conference champion, All-American,
and national champion. If that weren’t enough, we
believe that our wrestlers should also soak up all of
the other “good stuff” that comes with the complete
college experience. To do all of this, a Stanford stu-
dent-athlete must be very disciplined, hard-work-
ing, and motivated. These are values we look for in
potential team members and strive to instill in our
wrestlers.
Wrestling Powerhouse
We believe that good students make good ath-
letes. Having high standards is a help, not a hin-
drance. While most people think of Stanford as a
top school academically, Stanford has accomplished
some amazing things athletically too. We have
