Gold Medalist Conducts Clinic at MHS

For Massapequa wrestlers and others in surrounding communities, Saturday, May 16 was a day to remember. Through the collaborative efforts of Massapequa Public School District wrestling coach Joe Catalanotto, District Director of Health, Athletics and Physical Education John Piropato, and the Friends of Massapequa Wrestling (FOMW) Inc., young wrestlers had the unique opportunity to spend time training with current Olympic Gold Medalist Henry Cejudo. Massapequa Wrestling is a strong tradition that continues to grow thanks to community and school district support that helps make events like the one featuring Cejudo possible.

One of the community groups that was instrumental in planning and facilitating the Henry Cejudo Clinic was the Friends of Massapequa Wrestling (FOMW) Inc. The organization, made up of parents of alumni, began three years ago as an offshoot of Massapequa’s booster club.
