Hello. My name is Lisa, and I have created this GoFundMe on behalf of my son, David, who has qualified to represent Team PA at the 2025 U.S. Marine Corps 16U Nationals.

David, known to many as DJ, has been a dedicated wrestler for nine years. He is a hardworking, dedicated athlete who has placed 1st in Greco and 4th in Freestyle at the PA USA Wrestling State Tournament in May. Placing top 4 at this tournament has provided him a huge opportunity to wrestle with the best at the USMC Nationals in Fargo, ND. Fargo is a huge wrestling tournament, featuring Olympic-style wrestling in men's freestyle, Greco-Roman, and even women's freestyle. The 2025 event is scheduled for mid-July at the Fargodome in North Dakota.

The money raised will be used towards travel expenses, lodging, training camps, tournament fees, and team gear package. We are reaching out for your support to help DJ fulfill this dream and opportunity to compete on the national level and work towards all his goals.

DJ is not only a talented wrestler, but also a respectful, hardworking, and goal-driven young man who leads by example. He deserves this chance, and with your support, we can help make it happen. Every donation, big or small, gets him one step closer to Fargo. If you can’t donate, please consider sharing this with your network.

Thank you for supporting student athletes like DJ who are chasing their dreams through hard work, dedication, and heart.

We thank you for your love and support.
