FloWrestler Of The Week: Anthony Cassar, PSU

Talk about stepping up and doing the damn thing.

In a wild season for his team at 197lb, Penn State's Anthony Cassar provided the latest unpredictable twist on Saturday as he took out #1 Kollin Moore of Ohio State at possibly the most crucial time of the year so far.

Moore came into Happy Valley, PA, this past weekend without a single blemish on his 2017-18 record and was looking to put the dual meet victory in the hands of his teammate and world and Olympic champion Kyle Snyder. However, Cassar brought those plans to a screeching halt. The unranked sophomore out of New Jersey wrestled perfectly to get the 6-3 win and hand Moore his first loss of the season.

Anthony Cassar’s big win over top-ranked Kollin Moore to help power Penn State to a win over Ohio State and the Big Ten team title makes him our FloWrestler of the Week.
