CLINTON, S.C. – The Presbyterian College men's wrestling team unscrewed the lid on the 2026-27 season with a friendly round-robin tournament against nearby Coker on Sunday afternoon, taking the lion's share of victories in an event that featured 33 total matches on two mats.

A Blue Hose wrestler went up against a Coker wrestler 23 times in the season-opener, winning all but three of those encounters. There were also 10 PC vs. PC matches that took place as well.

Seven Presbyterian athletes appeared in more than one match without any losses, including true freshman Preston Crone (157) who went a team-best 4-0 with two pins and two technical falls.

Alex Schweitzer and Joshua Henderson both won all three of their tussles, while Jayden Morris, Christian Anderson, Yanik Simon, and George Cody also had multiple matches with no hiccups.

Head coach Mark Cody and co. will start the season in proper dual fashion next weekend, beginning a lengthy road swing against VMI. The Southern Conference opener will get underway at 3:00 in Lexington, Virginia.
