Latrobe's Luke Willochell wins 4th WCCA Wrestling Championship; Franklin Regional boys and Valley girls claim team titles.
Greater Latrobe senior Luke Willochell joined the elite group of 4-time WCCA champions with his win at the 71st Westmoreland County Coaches Association Wrestling Championships on Saturday, January 11, 2025, at Greensburg Salem High School. Willochell defeated Franklin Regional's Chase Smith by fall in the 133-pound final. The win in the finals marked the 100th pin of Willochell's career. He becomes the 14th four-time WCCA champion, and the second from Greater Latrobe, joining the county's first four-time champ Tom Bell, who won gold from 1961 to 1964.
Picking up their second county championship gold medals were Latrobe's Leo Joseph and Derry Area's Anthony Mucci and Mason Horwat.
Franklin Regional topped Kiski Area 247.5 to 210.5 to take the boys team championship. It was the fifth championship for the Panthers, who last won it in 2021. Burrell, Derry Area, and Norwin rounded out the top five teams. Also participating were Greater Latrobe, Penn-Trafford, Belle Vernon, Southmoreland, Hempfield Area, Mount Pleasant, Greensburg Salem, Ligonier Valley, Valley, Yough, and Kiski School.
While girls have participated in past tournaments as members of their school's boys team, history was made this year as the first ever WCCA Wrestling Championships were held for girls teams. The Saturday-only event was held as a round robin format tournament. Valley was crowned the inaugural WCCA girls champion with 168 points, and Greater Latrobe claimed the runner-up trophy with 114 points. Also participating were girls teams from Burrell, Derry Area, Greensburg Salem, Hempfield Area, and Kiski School. A list of all gold medalists is below.
