Not only do we want a program of wrestling champions, but we want a program of young men wanting to be champions in life.

College is that next step.

If you plan on Wrestling in College:

Here you will find information regarding the College Bound Athlete and what requirements are needed to pass the NCAA Clearinghouse to make yourself available for college recruitment.

Lori Rakes has taken tremendous amounts of time and energy researching the massive amounts of information regarding recruitment of College Bound Athletes. She recommends the following sites as your first steps:

NCAA Eligibility Clearinghouse Online https://web1.ncaa.org/eligibilitycenter/common/

CHS Student Course Guide http://chs.mcps.org/Guidance/guidance.htm

CHS Student Course plan template

Lori's number one piece of advice is this:

It is never too early to start planning!

Even if you are not Wrestling in College, the CBDWC offers scholarship opportunities to wrestlers that meet certain guidelines set forth here.

You may not be eligible for CBDWC Scholarship if you are wrestling for a college program that offers scholarships. Those cases are handled on a case by case basis.

Thanks Lori for your working in putting this information together!
