NMU Drops Support for the Greco National Training Site

Student-Athletes,

As the higher education landscape continues to evolve and institutions navigate increasing resource constraints, we have determined that this is the appropriate time to transition away from our support of the National Training Site program for Greco-Roman Wrestling. The relationship with USA Wrestling and NMU will terminate on June 30, 2027.

We appreciate the contributions of the many athletes and coaches who have been part of the Greco Roman Wrestling program. Your dedication and impact have been meaningful to our institution.

In the coming weeks, we will provide additional information to help guide you through this transition. We are committed to honoring existing National Training Site scholarship agreements, ensuring that current student-athletes may continue under the current terms and conditions as they work toward completing their degree at NMU, for up to 10 semesters.

Due to the timing of this notice, I would like to plan a team meeting the first week of the upcoming academic semester in August when everyone is back on campus to answer any questions or concerns you may have.

Sincerely,
Rick Comley
