    WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. -- A two-time All-American and the college's all-time wins leader, Seth Lansberry '17 is set for his first season as an assistant wrestling coach at Lycoming College, 25th-year head coach Roger Crebs announced on Wednesday, June 26.

    He will join Crebs' staff, which also features Sean Reese '05, who has served as an assistant in nine of the past 10 years.

    Lansberry, who graduated Lycoming with a Bachelor of Science in ecology in 2017, spent the past year working with React Environmental in Philadelphia. He also served as an assistant wrestling coach at Haverford High School.

    Lansberry was a four-year letterwinner and starter for the Warriors, earning two All-American honors after finishing fourth at 149 pounds at NCAA Division III Championships in 2016 and 2017. As a senior, Lansberry went 41-2, starting the season with a school-record 40-match winning streak. He won the 2017 MAC Championship and NCAA Mideast Regional titles at 149 pounds and was also named to Budd Whitehill Duals All-Tournament Team. He set a school-record with 13 technical falls and he was just the second Warrior in school history to win 40 matches in a season.

    Lansberry finished his career with a school-record 145 career wins, while also setting school's career records with 25 technical falls and 27 major decisions. He is the only wrestler in program history to win 30 matches in all four years of career. Topping off his career, the ecology major was also named an NWCA Scholar All-American as a senior.

    The Warriors finished 12-5 under 25th-year head coach Roger Crebs in 2017-18 and finished fifth at the NCAA Southeast Regional, the program's highest finish since moving to the regional format in 2012.
