Yianni Diakomihalis, a unique name for a unique talent.

The Hilton wrestler has won four New York State championships in four years, but the Cadet hopes that's just the start.

Diakhomihalis finds his inspiration from author Malcolm Gladwell's philosophy of 10,000 hours. Gladwell says in order to master a craft you need 10,000 hours of quality practice, Yianni lives that motto through his disciplined training.

Diakhomihalis puts in the work in hopes of making a splash at the ultimate level, the Olympics.
