Anthony Knox Jr. stripped of New Jersey wrestling title in end to lengthy high school brawl saga
Anthony Knox Jr., a top New Jersey high school wrestler, had his 2025 state and regional titles revoked by the NJSIAA due to violations of its sportsmanship and bench rules. The decision followed an 8-0 vote by the controversies committee after a February 2025 brawl at the District 25 tournament that also involved his father. Knox had previously won a court appeal that allowed him to compete, but he did not attend the hearing where the titles were stripped.
- ▪The NJSIAA controversies committee voted unanimously on May 26 to strip Knox of his state and Region 7 titles for conduct related to a 2025 tournament brawl.
- ▪Knox had initially appealed a disqualification ruling and a court allowed him to compete in the state championship in March 2025.
- ▪A two‑hour hearing with testimony from police, NJSIAA officials, and school administrators resulted in the title revocation.
- ▪Knox, who committed to Rutgers and secured a NIL deal, did not appear at the May hearing despite being personally served notice.
