PLAINVIEW, TX (KCBD) – Inside the city of Plainview, Wayland Baptist University is making history with a sports program like no other in the state. “We have something special going on out here at Wayland Baptist,” said senior wrestler Jose Alvarez. “This is the only school in Texas that has competitive wrestling as a part of the funded program,” Mich Napier a senior wrestler said. This young wrestling program takes great pride in being the only collegiate wrestling team in the Lone Star State. “That says a lot. Texas is a really big state, and it’s the only program here.” Alvarez said. “So that’s a big deal, any accomplishments we do here at Wayland Baptist represents the entire state of Texas.”
