Senior Ethan Lizak won his fourth Northeast regional 3A wrestling championship over the weekend, but his younger brother finally got to add his name to the family list as well.

Sophomore Jacob Lizak posted a 3-0 decision over Nazareth's Travis Smith in the 113-pound championship Saturday night to earn his first regional gold medal and add another piece of hardware to the Lizak trophy case.

The Lizak brothers were two of the three regional champions for Parkland, as Nezar Haddad captured the 195-pound championship. The Trojans qualified five wrestlers to this week's PIAA wrestling championships in Hershey and finished second as a team at regionals to give them a boost into the Giant Center for Thursday's opening round of wrestling.

"It's cool to finally get a gold medal here," said Jacob about winning regionals. "My brother always helps me and he wants to see me do well. He shows me what I'm doing wrong and shows me a lot of little tricks about what to do on top or in different situations. I'm confident going into states."

After finishing third at districts, Lizak feels that his wrestling has improved over the course of the week and looks forward to his second tango with Giant Center mats this weekend.

"I just feel like I'm wrestling better," he said. "I just want to go out there and score points and not really worry too much."

His older brother had to worry plenty for his chances to win his fourth straight regional crown, as he needed nearly all five minutes of blood time during his semifinal match with Scranton's Rui Evanitsky.

Lizak won the match comfortably, rendering a 7-0 decision, but a cut on the back of his head during the bout left him with four seconds of blood-time. If his time would have ran out, Lizak's trek to become the first Parkland wrestler in school history to win four regional crowns would have been wiped out.

After getting five stitches in the back of his head during downtime in the afternoon, he returned to the mat Saturday evening with his head heavily wrapped to post an 8-3 decision over Nazareth's Tyrone Klump in the 120-pound finals.

"I would have been really upset if I lost because of blood time," Lizak said. "My goal the whole time coming into this tournament was to win my fourth regional title, so I'm glad I was able to."

Lizak now hopes to win his third straight state title, which never is an easy task.

"This might be the toughest year for me," he said. "There's four kids ranked in the top-10 in the country at my weight, so it's going to be a real fight."

Haddad added to his medal count as well, winning a 6-2 decision over Liberty's Orlando Miller for his first regional championship in three tries. Josh Ortman (152) found himself in the finals against Easton's Elijah Brown, just as they were in the district championship, but Brown came out with a 3-1 sudden victory in overtime.

Omar Haddad was the last Trojan to punch his ticket to Hershey when he escaped with a 3-2 victory in the ultimate tiebreaker over Emmaus's Thomas Alcaro in the 220-pound consolation final.

Haddad received a stall point at the buzzer of the second tiebreaker to even the match at 2-2 going into the final rideout, where he escaped from bottom for the win.
