If you’re free, we’d love to see you down at Oran Park supporting the Sydney Uni Lions as they take on the country’s best. Your support means a lot to our team.

Best of luck to all athletes competing this weekend! 💙🦁🤼

As the semester comes to a close, we’d like to wish Patrick Zimmer all the best as he returns home to Chicago.

Patrick joined us as an exchange student this semester and quickly became a valued member of the club, representing USYD Wrestling in competition at the Victoria State Championships and contributing countless hard rounds on the mats.

Thank you for being part of the team, Patrick. We wish you safe travels, continued success in your wrestling journey, and all the best with your studies back in the United States.

You’ll always have a home on the mats at USYD Wrestling.

See you again, mate 🤼‍♂️🇦🇺🤝🇺🇸
