With Veterans Day today I thought I’d take a look at the service of a few Cowboy wrestlers. Vernon Logan, Buddy Arndt, J. Robinson, and Randy Couture served in WW2, Vietnam and during the Cold War. All four have unique stories of their service that came before, after and even in between their time at Oklahoma State.
Vernon Logan: Logan won individual NCAA titles for Oklahoma State in 1940 and 1942 at 155 pounds. He helped Oklahoma State win team titles in each of those seasons as well and likely would’ve won another in 1941, but was forced to miss the season and NCAA tournament with a broken nose.
