In the fall, the team practices at McCloskey Field once or twice a week, with at least one bonding activity planned. In the spring, practice is held two to three times per week, with at least two bonding activities planned.

Whether you’re a past competitive swimmer looking for challenging practices and swim meets, or you’re looking to swim as a form of exercise, this is the club for you! Enjoy swimming without the stresses of a highly competitive swim team. We love team bonding activities and growing as a group, in and outside of the pool.

Club Swim Team is a year-round club. Meets, typically at least one per semester, are often with swim clubs from nearby colleges, with big meets like Nationals in the spring semester. Your involvement can be competitive or recreational, depending on your goals.

Practices are held in the Duquesne Pool in Towers, on the same floor as the dining hall. The group typically gathers four to five times a week, depending on the open swim hours at the pool. We ask that members try to come to practice at least once a week to maintain their active title.

Bring a swimsuit, towel, cap, and goggles and you'll be ready to go! (If you don’t have a cap or goggles, there are often a few extras floating around the swim team if you need to borrow one.)

The newly formed club wrestling team is partnered with the National Collegiate Wrestling Association and strives to provide a good workout and lifelong friendships. Any level of experience is welcome, from state-qualifies to first-time learners. Wrestling teaches self-discipline and gives you a good community of people with which to learn and grow.

The wrestling club is very flexible and you can be as involved as you want to be. The season runs from late October through mid-March with dual meets and open tournaments scattered outside the season.

Practices are year-round, two to three times a week in the Power Center, and many wrestlers lift and run in smaller individual groups as able.

You can just practice, run, lift and keep things casual, or there is opportunity for some high-level competition with NCWA dual meets and conferences feeding into nationals at the end of the year.

This club is open to males and females. There are separate competitions, and we endeavor to grow a female team.
