From 1948 to 2015, Easton had 185 individual district wrestling champions, and at least one district champion in each of these years. Competing in Pennsylvania's Eastern Pennsylvania Conference, a district that has long been regarded as one of the most competitive wrestling districts in the nation,[4]
Easton High School's 68-year streak was considered to a testament to the program's consistent excellence.[5]
The Easton wrestling streak, which began in 1948, ended February 27, 2016, when it failed to produce a district champion.
