Nathan Tomasello's hardware collection keeps growing.
Sunday, the Ohio State redshirt sophomore repeated as Big Ten wrestling champion in the 125-pound weight class with 3–1 over No. 3 seed Nico Megaludis of Penn State.
Tomasello, the tournament's top seed, fought back from a one-point deficit to tie the affair before countering a Megaludis takedown attempt in overtime for the winning two.
Tomasello was dominant on his way to the final, knocking off Ben Thornton of Purdue, 20-2, No. 8 Sean McCabe of Rutgers in the quarterfinals, 20-5, and No. 4 Tim Lambert of Nebraska, 10-5, in the semifinals.
With the win, Tomasello improves to 25–0 on the season. Next up: a chance to repeat as NCAA champion.
