Monroeville graduate Logan Stieber had his wrestling season cut short after eight matches during his freshman season at Ohio State.

Stieber broke his hand and had to sit out the rest of the season, after going 5-3.

He won his first five matches, defeating Nebraska’s Shawn Nagel, Pittsburgh’s Anthony Zanetta, Cal State Bakersfield’s Tyler Iwamura, Illinois’ Logan Arlis and Hofstra’s Steve Bonanno. He lost three straight matches, all by decision, to Oklahoma’s Jarrod Patterson (2-1), Oregon State’s Jason Lara (5-0) and Cornell’s Frank Perrelli (9-8).

His brother Hunter Stieber just came off his fourth-straight state championship, while wrestling at Monroeville. He’ll be joining Logan next season.
