UNC's Marisol Nugent becomes first woman ever listed on an ACC varsity wrestling roster
Posted Jan 20, 2022
"Train like a Tar Heel." Those words from the North Carolina wrestling staff are what drew redshirt freshman Marisol Nugent to UNC. The women’s wrestling star and 2021 U23 All-American, who transferred from Lehigh University, is the first woman ever listed on an ACC varsity wrestling roster. Nugent has wrestled since she was in elementary school.
