On Saturday, Boys Wrestling teams from around Central Pennsylvania competed in the District 3 Sectional round of the postseason. The six teams from Lebanon County were distributed across three locations based on their classifications and placements.

When the wrestling concluded, thirty-nine local athletes returned home with medals—six of which were gold, marking the wrestlers who became Section Champions. Additionally, twenty-eight athletes from Lebanon County secured their spots for the next round.

A standout performer of the weekend was Northern Lebanon’s Aaron Seidel, who achieved his fourth consecutive Section Championship. With this victory, he notched his 196th career win and is now just four wins shy of breaking the PIAA All-Time Wins Record.
