MORGANTOWN, W.V. - The University of Virginia wrestling team began the regular season portion of its 2001 schedule by competing in the 20th annual West Virginia Open. The Cavaliers had 14 of their 24 participants finish with a .500 record or better, including eight wrestlers who finished with a winning record in the tournament. Virginia was highlighted by Jimi Massey (Williamsport, Md./Williamsport) who finished 4-1 at 184 and finished runner-up in the class.

After posting back-to-back major decision victories over Brent Blackwell (14-4) and Canaan Prater (12-1), Massey defeated Mark Shrout (11-6) and Anthony DeBaido (3-2) to meet Maryland's Jake Stork in the 184 championship. Stork earned a hard-fought 9-7 decision to give Massey runner-up honors by placing second in the weight class.

First-year newcomers Will Durkee (Pittsburgh, Pa./Shady Side Academy) and Paul Dunstan (Oberlin, Ohio/St. Edwards) each turned in an impressive finish in their first collegiate competition event. Durkee finished 5-2 at 165 and won five of his first six matches, while Dunstan went 4-2 at 149 after winning four of his first five bouts. True-freshman Byron Dunlap (York, Pa./Dallastown) and redshirt-freshman Paul Bjorlo (Reston, Va./South Lakes) each turned in a 3-2 record at 125 and 149, respectively. After dropping his first bout, Dunlap won three consecutive matches including an 8-0 major decision victory over David Freidman. Bjorlo won three of his first four matches, including an 11-5 decision over Maryland's Matt Kenny.

Virginia's heavyweight duo of Josh Etu (Queensbury, N.Y./Queensbury) and Ryan Painter (Rainelle, W.V./Rainelle) gave the Cavaliers a solid one-two punch in the class. Etu won his first two matches after pinning Aaron Ferrance and earning a 4-2 decision over Reuben Daniels before having to withdraw from competition. Painter won three of his first four matches including an 8-5 decision over Davidson's Shawn Reynolds.

The Cavaliers' Brian Muir (Toms River, N.J./Toms River North) finished 4-2 at 174 and won four of his first five matches, including three consecutive bouts. Included in Muir's four wins was a technical fall victory over Jake Perry and a 10-2 major decision of Maryland's Barry Stein.

Virginia will return to action on Saturday, November 17th when UVa travels to Ithaca, N.Y. to compete in the 2001 Cornell Invitational. The meet is scheduled to begin at 9:00 a.m.
