Lewisburg, Pennsylvania — Established in 2015, the Buffalo Valley Regional Training Center (BVRTC) is a local nonprofit that aims to serve area wrestlers that make them better athletes, competitors and people. Operating out of the newly built Graham Wrestling Facility, the BVRTC utilizes world-class facilities that are among the best in the country. We are coached by individuals that have competed at a high level who care about the learning and development of our athletes.
