HONORING NORTH CENTRAL WOMEN’S WRESTLING

During Women's History Month, we want to honor our women's wrestling program, which in just five years has become one of the most successful in the nation, attracting student-athletes from across the country. The Cardinals took second at the 2024 National Collegiate Women’s Wrestling Championships in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, following their national title win in 2023. Amani Jones ‘25 earned national champion status in the 123-pound weight class. She and several other Cardinals now have their sights set on the 2024 U.S. Olympic Team Trials in April.
