JAMESTOWN, N.Y. – Six Gannon men's wrestlers claimed titles on Sunday when the Golden Knights competed in the Jamestown Open.

Isaiah Mohmed (Valparaiso, Ind./Valparaiso) (165 pounds) and Eli Reese (Sarver, Pa./Knoch) (285) won their weight divisions while wrestling for the Gannon B Team.

Gannon wrestlers Jordan Escarra (Weston, Fla./Cypress Bay) (125), Brock Christian (Perry, Ohio/Perry) (133), Chase McLaughlin (Jamestown, Pa./Jamestown Area) (141), and Mateo Caso (Walla Walla, Wash./Walla Walla) (149) earned championships in their respective weight classes while competing unattached.

The Knights also had five other finalists: Kenneth Schmitz (125), Amarfio Reynolds (Niagara Falls, N.Y./Niagara Falls) (133), Isaac Piatek (Garner, N.C./Cleveland) (141), Evan Reid (Carnation, Wash./Cedarcrest) (149), and Caleb Butterfield (Erie, Pa./McDowell) (165).
