Morris, Fry headline list of NEWA Postseason Accolades
PROVIDENCE, R.I. – JWU (Providence) head coach Lonnie Morris and junior Joziah Fry headline the list of New England Wrestling Association (NEWA) Postseason honorees. Morris was named Head Coach of the Year while Fry was named Wrestler of the Year, and Associate Head Coach Brian Allen and assistants James Gilbert, Steven Keith, Da’mani Burns, and Nick Avery were named Staff of the Year.
Morris and his staff guided the Wildcats to a second-place finish at the NCAA Northeast Regionals and a fourth-place finish at the NCAA Championships. The Wildcats finished the nationals with 76 points, which was behind national champion Augsburg (91.0 points), Wartburg (87.5), and Wis.-La Crosse (82.5). As a result, they brought home a trophy for the third time in program history (2017 – fourth place; 2019 – third place) and remain the only program in New England to have carried home hardware from a national championship.
Graduate students Ryan DeVivo and Victor Perlleshi, along with Fry and classmates Patrick Wisniewski and Dylan Harr, were all named to the NEWA First Team. … more at … Providence.jwuathletics.com/Morris-fry-headline-list-of-newa-postseason-accolades
