Lander will become just the fourth NCAA Division II wrestling program in the state and will begin competition during the 2019-20 academic year.
"This is thrilling news for Lander as we continue to elevate and grow our athletics program," said athletics director Brian Reese. "Men's wrestling will bring an added element to our overall student-athlete experience and will give us another opportunity to field a progam that can compete at a championship level."
Lander will begin the process of seeking the program's first head coach with a national search that will conclude by July 1.
Lander University is a four-year, public university located in Greenwood, South Carolina. This NCAA Division II school has an enrollment of approximately 3,000 students.
