GREENWOOD – The Lander wrestling program will begin competing in South Atlantic Conference Carolinas beginning with the 2020-21 season.
“We’re very excited to have our wrestling program join South Atlantic Conference Carolinas men’s wrestling,” said Lander athletic director Brian Reese. “We think it’s an excellent partnership and we appreciate the help of everyone who made this happen.”
South Atlantic Conference Carolinas is a co-branded men’s wrestling league entering its third year of existence. Lander will become the league’s ninth team, joining Belmont Abbey, Coker, Emmanuel, King, Limestone, Mount Olive, Newberry, and Queens.
“We are thrilled to welcome Lander to our unique collaboration for men’s wrestling with the South Atlantic Conference,” Conference Carolinas Commissioner Chris Colvin said. “This joint partnership has flourished over its first two years and we look forward to continuing to see it grow in the years to come.”
Lander wrestling is entering its second season of existence after competing as an independent during its inaugural 2019-20 campaign.
