Wrestling: NJSIAA District 17 seeds, pairings

Pairings and seeds for the District 17 Tournament to be held on Saturday at Hunterdon Central's Field House.

Action begins at 10 a.m., with the preliminaries and quarterfinals. Semifinals to follow at noon with third-place consolations at 1:30 p.m., and finals at approximately 3:30 p.m.

There are seven returning champions in this year's field:

North Hunterdon's Matt Moncourtois and Liam Korbul, Lawrence's Gordon Wolf, Delaware Valley's Matt Gilmore, Hunterdon Central's Gary Dinmore, Voorhees' Jadaen Bernstein and Hopewell Valley's Mike Markulec.

Bernstein, who is the Vikings' all-time wins leader, is going for his third straight title after winning back-to-back crowns at 160 pounds. He was third as a freshman. Only 10 Voorhees wrestlers have won three or more titles, including head coach Eric Hall, who won four (1993-96). The last at the Hunterdon County school to win at least three was Mike Hafke (2007-10), one of 11 from the county to win four.

Pongracz and Dinmore are also gunning for their third district titles.

Pongracz is looking to join seven others at Del Val to win three or more -- including four-timers Kris Sigafoos (2004-07) and Nick LaFevre (2005-08), and three-timers Jeff Segreaves (1973-75), Jamie Wicks (1986-88), Brent Conly (1991-93), C.J. Inglin (2004-06), Dan Kelly (2005-07).
