Towards the end of the first round of matches tonight (the first quarterfinal was on the mat), Souderton HS lost power due to a down transformer. According to the local authorities, the power would not be restored this evening. So the decision was made to resume wrestling at the regularly scheduled time of 9:30 AM Saturday morning. Wrestling will resume with the 4 matches on the mat that were interrupted, so we'll wrestle with a shorter break before the finals. Check the PIAA District 1 website ( https://www.piaad1.org/" rel="nofollow - https://www.piaad1.org/ ) for updates tomorrow in case there are still issues with the power in the area. ------------- PA-Wrestling.com - online home for Pennsylvania wrestling - https://twitter.com/PA_wrestling" rel="nofollow - https://twitter.com/PA_wrestling |

Thanks for the update GOE, appreciate it. Yep, assuming everything can start at 9:30 tomorrow, should be able to complete the tournament. There's that break before the finals that will be used to completed the matches. My guess is the finals might be pushed back a little but shouldn't be much. If I get any updates, I'll be sure to post something here. ------------- PA-Wrestling.com - online home for Pennsylvania wrestling - https://twitter.com/PA_wrestling" rel="nofollow - https://twitter.com/PA_wrestling |

Everything appears to be good to resume as planned at 9:30 this morning. The new estimated time for the semis is approx 12:30-12:45. The plan is to run with limited breaks today until prior to the finals. A break will be needed there to setup for the finals. Finals might start a little later than the original plan of 6 PM. ------------- PA-Wrestling.com - online home for Pennsylvania wrestling - https://twitter.com/PA_wrestling" rel="nofollow - https://twitter.com/PA_wrestling |
