DANVILLE, Va. — Averett University men's wrestling completed the Cougar Open on Saturday night, finishing with three medalists, including one runner-up in the Grant Center.

Sophomore Nolan Gerwitz finished second in the tournament in the 184-pound weight class. He started off the tournament with a 2-0 decision win against D'Andree Hunt. His next win came by technical fall against Benjamin Newton. Gerwitz kept his streak going when he earned an 18-4 major decision against George Vrachnos. In the semifinals, he defeated Gabriel Hayes in a tight 13-10 decision to advance to the finals. In the finals, he faced Rylan Moose who defeated senior George Moseley the night prior.

Gerwitz lost to Moose by fall at 4:19. Senior Alex Logsdon placed sixth in the tournament at 125 pounds. He went 5-2 on the day, earning one win by fall, three by technical fall and one major decision. Logsdon would have wrestled in the fifth-place match, but reached his limit of six matches in the day, resulting in a no contest.

Freshman Cooper Comer placed fourth in the Cougar Open. In his first match, he pinned his opponent. Along the way to the third-place match, he snagged two tight decision wins. He lost in the semifinals and third place match.

The Cougars are back in action on Nov. 18 when they compete in the Waynesburg Duals beginning at 11 a.m.
