Thus far, it has been a memorable season for McCaskey's Lexis Ortiz.During the Boiling Springs Holiday Tournament, the Red Tornado senior became McCaskey's second member of the 100-victory club.
He also became the Tornado's all-time winningest wrestler, an honor he continues to burnish with every subsequent victory he posts.
This weekend, in the 15th annual Lancaster-Lebanon League tournament at Conestoga Valley, he has the opportunity to join another select group: the cohort of wrestlers who are three-time L-L champions.
The tournament gets underway Friday at 4:30 p.m. with pigtails and preliminaries, followed by quarterfinals and two rounds of consolations.
Wrestling continues Saturday with third-round consolations at 10 a.m. and semifinals at 11:30. Consolation quarterfinals and semifinals follow with seventh-place matches at 1:30 p.m.
The championship finals will be held concurrently with the third- and fifth-place matches, starting at 4:30.
