There was an error made in the earlier version of this article, that suggested both AA & AAA take the same path to States. It has now been updated to be correct.
On Saturday, Lebanon County wrestlers took to the mats for their chance to earn a spot at either the District 3 Championships (AA) or the Regional Championships (AAA), which will both take place next weekend.
When all the matches had been completed, TWENTY-FIVE Lebanon County wrestlers earned their spots in the next round in their quest for a State medal.
THREE Lebanon County Wrestlers made it to the top of the podium, claiming gold. The wrestlers winning Section championships were Northern Lebanon’s Aaron Seidel, Lebanon’s Griffin Gonzalez, and ELCO’s Steven Rosado. Griffin Gonzalez was named the Most Outstanding Wrestler at the AAA Section 1 Tournament.
