Raiders' Newell gets 2nd on mat

Seneca Valley’s Louis Newell made it to the finals at 113 pounds at the PIAA Class AAA Wrestling Championships in Hershey Saturday, but came one win short of a state title.

Newell handled Ed Scott of DuBois with a 4-3 decision to land in the finals for the second consecutive year.

Newell was runner-up last season at 106 pounds.

In the finals, Newell faced a familiar foe in North Hills freshman Sam Hillegas, who entered the bout 42-0.
