Wrestling at UCF means more than just competing. We have a consistent team average GPA above 3.0. Our Knights go on to become educators, professionals, first responders, military officers, coaches, doctors, business owners and leaders within their community

We are proud of our wrestling legacy, but are honored to assist athletes in becoming better students and productive people by instilling the importance of quality education and developing mental skills that will last a lifetime.

Our athletes learn perseverance and toughness. In the words of Coach Jerry Gergley, first UCF wrestling coach, "YOU MAY BE SURPRISED WHAT YOU CAN ACHIEVE WITH SINCERE EFFORT. SO, GET UP, PICK THE CINDERS OUT OF YOUR WOUNDS AND TAKE ONE MORE STEP."
