  • How Cassar Became a Star Mark Hall Anthony Cassar Was Able to Hone in on His Experience and Training to Win His First-Ever Big Ten Title
    Vol. 119, No. 47 March 11-13, 2019 How Cassar became a star Mark Hall Anthony Cassar was able to hone in on his experience and training to win his first-ever Big Ten title By Jake Aferiat THE DAILY COLLEGIAN Anthony Cassar has made a career out of proving doubters wrong and rising to the occasion. It all started in high school when Cassar made his first-ever appear- ance in the New Jersey state tournament as a senior, go- WRESTLING ing 45-0 and winning a state title in the process. Then, he got to Penn State where he redshirted his freshman year and then lost the subsequent two years due to injury. From there, Cassar worked for years to earn his way into Jason Nolf Penn State’s starting lineup. Finally this year, Cassar got his shot as he moved up to heavyweight and, in his first-ever Big Ten tournament, had the biggest moment of his career and silenced all of his critics in the process. After not competing in last year’s Big Ten tourna- ment and “being depressed” because of losing the job to teammate and best friend Shakur Rasheed, Cassar made a statement this year and upset Minnesota’s stud freshman Gable Steveson in the heavyweight final to claim his first Big Ten title on Sunday. Steveson isn’t just any undefeated freshman, though. He entered Minnesota as a four-time state high school champion, two time Cadet world champion and as a Junior world champion. And even before the tournament started, Penn State coach Cael Sanderson knew there was a possibility the two would meet and sparks would fly.

  • WR Lions Roar Over Buckeyes for Share of B1G Dual Crown
    From: Pat Donghia [email protected] Subject: WR: Lions Roar over Buckeyes for Share of B1G Dual Crown Date: February 3, 2018 at 9:38 PM To: undisclosed-recipients:; WR: Lions Roar over Buckeyes for Share of B1G Dual Crown Anthony Cassar downs No. 1 Moore at 197 to spark Lions in comeback dual victory UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.; February 3, 2018 – The Penn State Nittany Lions (12-0, 8-0 B1G), wrestling without top-ranked Jason Nolf at 157, took care of business in a key Big Ten dual meet by beating visiting Ohio State (12-1, 7-1) in sold out Rec Hall. The Nittany Lions roared back from a ten point halftime deficit to post a thrilling 19-18 win, clinching at least a share of the 2018 Big Ten Dual Meet Championship. The Lions won four of five bouts in the second half, highlighted by sophomore Anthony Cassar (Rocky Hill, N.J.) taking care of No. 1 Kollin Moore at 197. Penn State’s victory keeps it dual meet win streak alive at 43 and clinches a share of its fifth Big Ten dual crown under head coach Cael Sanderson. A win over Iowa in the sold out Bryce Jordan Center next Saturday would give Penn State the crown outright. The dual began at 125 where senior Carson Kuhn (Sandy, Utah) made his Penn State debut against No. 4 Nathan Tomasello of Ohio State. The Boise State transfer thrilled the crowd with early takedowns and led into the second period but Tomasello rallied to post a 21-12 major.
