Wrestling
In only 4 seasons Lander Wrestling has established itself as legitimate NCAA National Championship contender, finishing as NCAA National Runner ups in 2023.
Our match schedule is packed with matches from November to March. Physically this is very demanding on student-athletes. Recovery and nutrition are essential to our success. We are fundraising to outfit and supply our recovery station within our locker room. This station would provide our athletes with key nutrition and supplements to fuel up before and after practice and games. This would be open during our season and located in our locker room for the competition season. In addition, we would outfit the station with a years’ worth of supplements and snacks for the team.
This year’s schedule includes an 4 day trip to the NWCA National duals in Cedar Falls Iowa. This is an added expense as we have to fly to the event. We are fundraising for additional funds to help offset the cost of this trip.
Team Travel NWCA National Duals - $5000
Recovery Drinks, Snacks, and Supplements for the season $2800
TOTAL - $7,800.00

Men’s Basketball
General funds to help any players that have less socioeconomically. Everyone simply isn’t as fortunate as others. An example of this would be covering one’s mandatory housing fee so he can live on campus.
Summer Meals. We have been fortunate enough to bring our guys to campus in the summer where they are able to take classes, lift together in the weight room, play pick up together on the court, and break bread together in the dining hall. The meals are quite expensive, and the more fundraising we do the easier it is to cover their meals.
Any amount of money helps more than you know. We thank you for your time, care and consideration of the young men that sacrifice a lot to represent Lander University and the Men’s Basketball program alike.

Women’s Basketball
The Lander Women’s Basketball team is fundraising to enhance the overall experience that each Women’s Basketball player has in their time at Lander. First, we are looking to make significant improvements to our locker room in order to provide an all-inclusive space that will double as a film room, as well as a place for players to spend time together throughout the day. To make this happen, we are hoping to completely revamp the area with new vinyl flooring, lighting, furniture and fully equipped Smart TV for the complete package! Second, we want to create a “Nutrition Station” in the space so that the student-athletes have access to healthy snacks, protein and meal supplements which will allow them to fuel for and recover from workouts much faster. With your donation, we believe we can create a state-of-the-art locker room that will not only enhance the overall student-athlete experience but will also allow us to recruit the type of players necessary to consistently compete on the National stage!

Men’s Soccer
As we try and push the program forward to compete for a National Championship, it’s vital that we schedule opposition who are challenging at the top of our Super Region. For Fall 2024, we will be playing away games vs Florida Tech and Rollins to open the season and we want to ensure the team travels the best way possible to help enhance on-field performance. We would like to raise approximately half of the cost for this trip on Giving Day. In addition to this, we want to continue to be on the cutting edge of sports performance and technology with regards to how we analyze our games. We would love to be able to upgrade our film hardware and software to the Veo 2 Camera with Analytics package. This upgrade will ensure our players and staff are pushing to improve in the right areas and give us an edge vs the opposition.

Bass Fishing
Entering our 3
rd year as part of the Lander athletics department, we have far achieved some of our goals. We ended the 2023 spring season ranked 19
th in the country. We were preseason ranked 17
th in the country and after the first two events of the season we found ourselves sitting atop of the rankings at 1
st in the country, a first-time feat for our program. In 6 out of the past 7 years we have been the top ranked school in South Carolina.
In order to maintain a top 10 finish in the Association of Collegiate Anglers rankings, we must be able to send more teams to more tournaments.
Bass Fishing is an extremely expensive sport. We travel all over the country representing Lander competing in college Bassmaster, Major League Fishing, and Association of Collegiate Anglers. We will see our team just this year alone travel to, Georgia, Tennessee, Florida, and Texas. We’ve competed in two tournaments so far this fall and sent teams to Arkansas and Kentucky. All teams that travel must use their own truck and boat. This includes but is not limited to gas (truck and boat), oil (for boats), and any maintenance that may be required.
Thank you so much for your generosity and continued support!
