A two-time All-American and the college’s all-time wins leader, Seth Lansberry ’17 is set for his fifth season as an assistant wrestling coach at Lycoming College in 2023-24, his third as a volunteer assistant with the squad.
In his first five years, Lansberry has helped the Warriors to a 48-16 dual meet record and mentored seven NCAA qualifiers and three All-Americans. In his first year, he was also a key part of Garrett Wesneski's run to a national title at 285 pounds.
Lansberry, who graduated Lycoming with a Bachelor of Science in ecology in 2017, was an assistant wrestling coach at Haverford High School in 2017-18.
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. He was inducted into the Lycoming Athletics Hall of Fame in 2022.
Lansberry lives in Pennsdale with wife, Breanna. He is the assistant superintendent of the West Wastewater Treatment Plant with the Williamsport Municipal Water and Sewer Authority.
