Hello, my name is Eli Pannell. I am a senior at the University of Dubuque and am on the wrestling team. I love what wrestling has done for my life; it has shaped me into the man I am today. To be a wrestler means to be fearless and hardworking, never backing down for difficult situations or circumstances. Since starting to wrestle I have improved my mindset and mental fortitude as well as my overall health. I really love the community here at the University of Dubuque. Everyone is super friendly and supportive of the student athletes. I have gained a ton of new friends during my time wrestling for UD’s team. I love to go out and perform for my friends and family and especially for my coaches and the community of Dubuque. I look forward to supporting Dubuque athletics after I graduate.
