Can’t Stop. Won’t Stop
The Patagonia film “Monte: Can’t Stop. Won’t Stop” explores how cycling made WWC student Monte Cosby into the person he is today.
Join One of Our Teams
Warren Wilson athletic teams welcome all interested student-athletes regardless of level or experience.
Consider, for example, our Cycling team. The year they won the national championship, the team featured two freshmen riders with contrasting backgrounds. Freshman Paul Wright came to Warren Wilson from New Zealand as a world-class rider. On the other end of the spectrum was Sophie Allen, who had never ridden a mountain bike before she joined the team in August. She got herself to a place where she could race for a national team just two and a half months later.
If you’re ready to contribute, we’re ready to meet you.
