Cornell wrestling adds four-time NCAA champion to coaching staff

Head coach Mike Grey said Diakomihalis brings both elite-level experience and a deep connection to the program, positioning him to make an immediate impact with current student-athletes.

Diakomihalis compiled a 21-1 record in his final collegiate season and finished his career as a four-time All-American and four-time EIWA champion, earning national recognition throughout his tenure.

His return adds another high-profile presence to a program that has consistently competed at the national level.
