Rochester, N.Y. -- A Hilton teen arrived home to a big welcome at the Rochester International Airport on Monday.

Yianni Diakomihalis just won gold for Team USA in this weekend's United World Wrestling: Cadet World Championship in Sarajevo.

"It's really exciting. Since I was a little kid, when I was just starting wrestling, I always used to watch the world championships. I'd be like 'oh, those are the best guys in the world.' When I was out there wrestling they were like 'Team USA Yianni Diakomihalis.' It was just a really cool opportunity for me," said Diakomihalis.
