ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WROC) — Yianni Diakomihalis of Hilton took a year off of wrestling at Cornell to train specifically for the Olympic Games. Now, he'll have to wait a bit longer after it was announced that the Olympic games were getting pushed to next year.
Less than three weeks ago, he was in Canada, winning gold at the Pan-Am Wrestling Championships. But that's also about the time that things started to change around the wrestling world..@YianniDiako_LGR of @HiltonCadets/@HiltonWrestle took a redshirt year solely to prepare for the 2020 Olympic Games. Now, he'll have to wait another year to fulfill his dreams. https://t.co/CirxAnGiR6
