“Damion adds an additional dynamic to our room to help us ensure that the nation's top wrestlers are attracted to our program,†said Clayton. “He will help us continue to focus on providing world-class academic support, wrestling training, and character development to our student-athletes. Our team's success, both on and off the mats, is due to tremendous efforts on the part of the Stevens community's support, the support of our growing fan and alumni base, and the amazing work ethic of our wrestlers.â€
While at Penn, Logan helped haul in a pair of top-5 recruiting classes in 2004 and 2005. In addition to assisting then-head coach Zeke Jones – now with USA Wrestling – with the day-to-day operations of the Penn program, the Garfield, N.J. native played an integral role in the development of three Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association (EIWA) champions, three All-Ivy selections, and a trio of NCAA Division I All-Americans in Matt Feast, Matt Herrington, and Matt Valenti. While at Penn, Logan also helped produce a pair of All-Ivy Academic honorees during his tenure.
Prior to his time with the Quakers, Logan enjoyed a decorated career at the University of Michigan. As a member of the Wolverines, Logan twice qualified for the NCAA Division I National Championships. A two-time NCAA Division I All-American, he served as the team's captain in 2000.
“I am very pleased and honored to become part of the Stevens family. I am looking forward to working with the student-athletes, administration, and athletic department at one of the most prestigious academic institutions in the country,†said Logan. “I believe Coach Mike Clayton and I have a great outlook for the future and development of the Stevens wrestling program. I am looking forward to the upcoming 2010-11 wrestling season, and plan on producing a positive experience for our current and future student-athletes.â€
