The District 11 wrestling tournament gets underway on Thursday afternoon with Liberty’s Memorial Gymnasium being the epic center of most of the 3A action before all competition from both classes heads to Freedom on Saturday.

Top-seeded Bethlehem Catholic is the only top 3A team not wrestling at Liberty on Thursday, as they’ll be at Catasauqua waiting to take on the winner of Pottsville (eighth-seed) and Stroudsburg (ninth-seed) in the 7:30 p.m. quarterfinals.

All other 3A wrestling will be at Liberty with preliminary rounds set for 6 p.m.

Joining Becahi in the top bracket is fourth-seeded Freedom, who meet the winner of Easton (fifth-seed) and Southern Lehigh (twelfth-seed).

In the bottom bracket, sixth-seeded Parkland battles eleventh-seeded Liberty, with the winner facing Northampton (third-seed).

The action rounds out with Emmaus (seventh-seed) and Whitehall (tenth-seed) battling before their matchup with second-seeded Nazareth.

Thursday night’s winners move to Saturday’s 10:45 a.m. semifinals with the championship, presumably pitting Bethlehem Catholic and Nazareth back at it, at 5:30 p.m.

In 2A, top-seeded Saucon Valley will be at Memorial Gymnasium as well, as they’ll take on the winner of Jim Thorpe (eighth-seed) and Wilson (ninth-seed).

Fourth-seeded Catasauqua will be at home waiting to take on either Tri-Valley (fifth-seed) or Palisades (twelfth-seed).

Third-seeded North Schuylkill will be at home as well, taking on either Lehighton (sixth-seed) or Palmerton (eleventh-seed).

The final 2A action is at Northern Lehigh, as second-seeded Notre Dame awaits the winner of Tamaqua (seventh-seed) and Schuylkill Haven (tenth-seed).

Semifinal action shifts to Freedom on Saturday taking place at 10:45 a.m. as well, with the finals slated for 5:30 p.m.
