Folkstyle career

High school

As a high schooler, Tomasello was a four–time Ohio (OHSAA) state champion in Division II out of the Cuyahoga Valley Christian Academy. He graduated with an undefeated record of 51 wins and no losses as a senior and 178 wins with 5 losses overall. [3] Tomasello was then recruited by the Ohio State University. [3]

College

During his first collegiate season (2013–14), Tomasello was redshirted and compiled an undefeated 19–0 record competing in open tournaments. [4] As a freshman, Tomasello claimed the NCAA and Big Ten Conference titles after a highly successful regular season, ending his season with a 33–4 record. [5] [6] As a sophomore and a junior, Tomasello remained undefeated throughout both regular seasons, claimed the B1G titles, but both times lost in the semifinals of the national tournaments and came back for third, becoming a three–time All–American. [7] [8] [9] In his final year, his only loss during regular season was to freshman phenom from Iowa Spencer Lee, a multiple–time age–group freestyle World Champion, and would go on to compile a 7–1 record during this time frame. [10] [11] After becoming a four–time B1G champion, at his last NCAAs, Tomasello was once again knocked off on the semifinals, coming back to place third, giving an end to an outstanding career. [12]

Freestyle career

2014–2017

During his first years competing in the senior freestyle level (2014–2016), Tomasello racked up experience from the US Nationals and the US Olympic Team Trials. [13] [14]

Throughout 2017, Tomasello claimed the Ion Corneanu Memorial International, placed third at the US Open and the US World Team Trials and second at the US U23 World Team Trials, and Alexandr Medved Prizes. [15] [16] [17]

2019–2021

After not competing in 2018, Thomasello placed sixth at the 2019 US Open and second at the Bill Farrell Memorial as well as the US Senior Nationals, qualifying for the 2020 US Olympic Team Trials with the latter result. [18] [19] In 2020, Thomasello only got to compete once due to the COVID-19 pandemic, placing second at the Cerro Pelado International. [20]

After more than a year of inactiveness, Tomasello competed at the rescheduled US Olympic Team Trials in April 1–3, 2021 as the seventh seed, in an attempt to represent the United States at the 2020 Summer Olympics. [21] After losing first round to US National Champion Vito Arujau, he bounced back with two straight victories to place third. [22]

Tomasello then registered to compete at the prestigious 2021 Poland Open in early June, and moved from 57 to 61 kg on a days notice. [23] Tomasello ultimately went 0–3, suffering dominant losses. [24]

Tomasello came back in big fashion 2021 US World Team Trials from September 11 to 12, intending to represent the country at the World Championships at 61 kilograms.
