2024 Monmouth Regional Wrestling
Head Coach: Anthony Costanza (1st Season)
A-Central / CJG2 / District 24 / Region 6
Where They Open: 12/14 at Pinelands
Opening Tournament: 12/16 - Garden State Classic at Barnegat
Brick Twp graduate Anthony Costanza takes over for Will Varela and will lead a Monmouth Regional time with a nice mixture of experience and a promising freshmen class.
The Falcons have a nice veteran stretch from 126-150 with six starters from last season in this run. Junior Ryan Walsh kicks off the run off. Walsh is entering his 3rd season in the starting lineup. He has put up 49 wins in his first two seasons, and was a District a District runner-up in 2023. Juniors Ian Neill, a 20-match winner, and Joseph Preziose were both a win away from qualifying for Regions, finishing 4th at the Districts. Senior Kyle Caraballo showed nice gains last season, going from four wins in 2022, to 15 last year. Rounding things out in this veteran stretch are senior Devon Yeboah and junior Esai Destinoble.
It will be a very young group in the lowerweights with freshmen Sal Bruno, Matteo Meleleo, Rob Royce, Danny Mullen, and Jack Puleio all looking to step right in and make an impact in the lineup.
Up top, junior Jack Ramsey is the lone returning starter from last year's team and is coming off a 13 win season. The group gets a boost with the return of senior Caesar Bautista-Rojas, who was 13-11 as a sophomore. There will be several new faces in this upperweight group, among them are senior Luke Palmieri who is transitioning to the mats from BJJ.
There's potential here for the Falcons to have a pretty nice lineup, especially with that group in the middle. The schedule is tough with A-Central being as tough from top to bottom as it has ever been, but it will only make this group tougher as the season progresses.
