Join our Lion Pin Pool

What is the Pin Pool?

Be part of the action by joining the 2025–2026 Columbia Wrestling Pin Pool—a fun, tax-deductible way to support our men’s and women’s teams with every pin they earn.

How it works:

  • $25 to join

  • You pledge a dollar amount (e.g. $1, $5, $10)

  • Your pledge × total number of pins = your gift

Pins are counted all season long across dual meets, open tournaments, and various events for both the men’s and women’s programs. You will receive an invoice from the NYCRTC with your total gift end of March.

All proceeds go directly toward supporting our Lion student-athletes—helping cover training costs, travel, housing, and entry fees for major USA Wrestling events like the U20 and U23 Freestyle & Greco Nationals.

Every fall fuels their future. Join the Pin Pool and help us build champions—on and off the mat!
