The Oklahoma RTC announced the addition of the Gorilla Hulk to their roster of senior level athletes. He will be coached by 2004 Olympian and OKRTC coach Eric Guerrero as he trains for the 2019 world team.
A 2012 NCAA champion, Molinaro was brought on to the Hokie coaching staff by Tony Robie in April of 2017. It is not clear at this time if the Jersey native will stay at 70kg for this coming freestyle season or head back down to 65kg.
Aside from making the Olympic team in 2016, he has been on the national team ladder three other times: third place finishes in 2014 and 2018, as well as being World Team Trials runner-up in 2017.
