Damion Logan is, without question, the greatest SJR wrestler of all-time. He could be the greatest SJR athlete of all time.
As a freshman wrestling at 103 pounds, Logan won the individual county, district, regional and New Jersey state titles on a team that captured league, county, district and state championships. He finished 31-2 for the year and was Athlete of the Week on March 2, 1993.
As a sophomore wrestling at 119 pounds, Logan was beaten in the state semifinals after sustaining a concussion in a quarterfinal match that he won. He finished the year 30-1 and repeated as league, county, district and region champion.
As a junior wrestling at 126 pounds, Logan finished the year 29-1. He captured his third district and region individual title, and his second individual New Jersey State championship. He was voted the Most Outstanding Wrestler in the both the Region 2 and State tournaments.
And as a senior wrestling at 135 pounds, he finished 30-2, and won his fourth District 8 and Region 2 title, and his third individual state championship. He finished with a career record of 122-6. He helped SJR to an undefeated 17-0 season and the Parochial B State Team Title.
He was named a Scholastic All-American by Wrestling USA in 1996.
And though we said tonight was a recognition of SJR achievements, we would be remiss if we did not note that Damion went on to a remarkable Division I wrestling career as an All-American at Michigan, and is currently the Athletic Director of Saint Joseph Regional High School.
