2022-2023 Portsmouth Abbey Wrestling Team

We are proud to be a member of the prestigious Eastern Independent League (EIL) member schools: Bancroft School, Beaver Country Day School, Berwick Academy, Concord Academy, Dana Hall School, Landmark School, Lexington Christian Academy, Newton Country Day School, Pingree School, Portsmouth Abbey School and The Winsor School,  The EIL provides student-athletes the opportunity for rigorous competition with schools of similar size and athletic philosophy.

Our wrestling program encourages students to reach their potential in the classroom and on the mats. It fosters a healthy respect for coaches, officials, opponents, and the game itself. Because wrestling demands an individual commitment to hard, physical work, we train our athletes in the game’s physical and mental aspects.
