Iowa Wrestling recruiting commit Anthony Cassioppi of Roscoe, IL (Hononegah HS) was dominating in winning the Hwt title at Super 32 in Greensboro, North Carolina. In the nation’s premiere folkstyle tournament, Cassioppi won by fall in 0:34, 0:21, 2:45, and 0:46 on his way to the finals.  In the finals, Cassioppi won by an 8-0 major decision over tenth ranked Max Darrah of Missouri.   Cassioppi continues to dominate and impress as he competes in every tournament that is out there. Cassioppi gave a verbal commitment to Iowa Wrestling on July 4.

Target recruit Trent Hidlay of Mifflin County, Pennsylvania placed third at 170 lbs. After dropping an overtime match in the semifinals to nationally seventh ranked Patrick Kennedy of Minnesota, Hidlay responded with two wins to place third.
