Supporting Yorktown Student Athletes
Yorktown Wrestling
2020 DISTRICT TEAM CHAMPIONS
For many years, Yorktown High School has been known for the strength of its wrestling team. Since our inception we boast 130 district, 27 regional and seven state champions. We are proud of this reputation and believe that our program goes beyond wrestling itself and teaches our student athletes valuable life skills, including self discipline, improved academics, teamwork and leadership.
We are asking you to be a part of this season’s positive momentum. The Yorktown Wrestling program relies on the support of our community, family and friends to continue to grow and thrive. The school provides equipment and match uniforms but the needs for a successful program extend beyond that support. Each donation is tax deductible and will be used 100% in support of our athletes for needs including training, gifts for seniors and middle school/community outreach and much more.
Our team mission is to promote a positive experience for our wrestlers, and to give each athlete the tools necessary to reach his or her highest level of success both on and off the mat. We invite you to be a part of this program by making a donation today.

Wrestling practice on an open field in snowy conditions makes champions! #wrestlinglife
As we remember Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. today, we encourage you to answer his call for service. Find ways to volunteer and make a positive difference in our community, not only today but all year long. Organizations like @volunteerarlington and @volunteerfairfax share local service opportunities. Nonprofits like @afacfeeds, @a_span, @arlingtonfreeclinic and @nature_org are based in Arlington and always need volunteers and donations. Let us know about the service opportunities you find so that we can share them with the rest of the team! #mlkday
We are starting of the new year with a new challenge for our wrestlers: 21 pulls ups every day for the next 21 days. Post your pulls ups in TeamApp every day to get your prize at the end of the month. Happy New Year! 🥳
We are having an outdoor practice today from 5:00pm - 6:30pm. Layer up and be ready to work! Don’t forget to bring your donations for @yorktownsga’s food drive, benefitting @afacfeeds. It’s a tough time for many people in our community so let’s pay it forward.
It’s almost time for the @yorktownsga’s annual food drive! They are collecting non-perishable food donations for the Arlington Food Assistance Center @afacfeeds. Since COVID began AFAC has received 45% more referrals for help and has served 33% more families in Arlington. The need is great so please participate. Drop your donations at Yorktown on weekdays only from December 7-15 and reach out to @yorktownsga with any questions.
When you win at sprints and get to pick who does pushups. And then you win again and pick the same guy. Sorry @ianhaddad_, @blake.buchert got you this time. But you know what they say about payback...🤣 (And great job on those pushups by the way! 👏👏👏)
Wishing a very happy birthday to Coach Marlow! Hope your day is as awesome as when we won Districts (which you helped us accomplish). Thanks for all you do for the team - we appreciate you. 🙌🥳
Wait for it... @srijonbose getting some air during Wednesday’s practice. 💨 Way to work on those explosive stand ups! 💥💥💥
