Team Kong United

Who We Are!

Team Kong United has won four back-to-back National Dual Meet titles and been a finalist an incredible six years in a row.  The team was originally founded by New York Coach Anthony Ciolino, and his vision has grown into a national phenomenon.  Creating all-star teams from the nation's best wrestlers, Ciolino has developed a family of superstars under the Kong banner.  Along With Ciolino, John Paniccioli has been instrumental in keeping the Kong organization running strong.  After two consecutive national final appearances, Ciolino and Paniccioli joined forces with X-Cel Wrestling's Nick Garone, a former NCAA All-American for Old Dominion and Olympic Festival Silver Medalist to assist in coaching duties.

Our mission at kongunited.com is to unite fans, coaches and wrestlers across the United States and invite them to become members of the Kong family.  We appreciate the support and as always, #Kong4Life.
