Farber claims SE Regional crown

Ryan Farber is golden again.

The Northern Lehigh senior edged Panther Valley's Hunter Kennedy 4-2 in the 160-pound final at the Southeast Regional Tournament Saturday.

The contest was a rematch of last week's District 11 final, which Farber won 13-3.

Northwestern's Baily Wehr (120) and Caleb Clymer (152), along with Northern Lehigh's Jason Schaffer (285) and Palmerton's Jared Mooney (182), placed second.

A total of nine Times News area wrestlers advanced to next week's PIAA Wrestling Championships with top-six finishes in the Class 2A regional tournament.

Tamaqua's Tanner McHugh (132) made it to Hershey with a third-place result.

In addition to Clymer and Wehr, Colin Rex (132) and Jackson Bernhard (145) also qualified for states with sixth place finishes.
