The Drexel Dragons wrestling team represents collegiate wrestling at Drexel University.

History

Drexel's primary conference, the Coastal Athletic Association (CAA, known as the Colonial Athletic Association until 2023), sponsored wrestling until 2013. Conference realignment and movement by other CAA teams ended CAA sponsorship of wrestling.

Drexel has two NCAA All-Americans to its credit: Rob Rebmann in 2004 and Ryan Hluschak in 2007.[1]
