NJSIAA strips Anthony Knox of 2025 state wrestling title

Summary

The NJSIAA has revoked Anthony Knox's 2025 wrestling state title after a hearing on May 26, where the committee voted unanimously due to his violation of sportsmanship policies during an altercation at the District 25 championships. Knox was found to have assaulted a juvenile spectator and was not present for the hearing. The ruling was made public on July 27. A court conference is scheduled for July 29 regarding the case. Knox, who won the 126-pound title earlier that year, faced previous sanctions for an incident leading to his suspension from regional competition, but he successfully fought that suspension due to a perceived lack of due process.
