BUCKS COUNTY – June 4, 2025 − State Senator Steve Santarsiero (D-10) yesterday welcomed two state champion wrestlers from his district to the Capitol, Eren Sement of Newtown Township and Chase Williams of Buckingham Township.
“These two incredible athletes have brought great pride to their schools and community,” said Senator Santarsiero. “Both of these young men have demonstrated impressive talent as wrestlers and strong leadership skills, qualities that will serve them well as they continue on in their athletic and academic careers.”
Eren Sement is a senior at Council Rock North High School and won the PIAA AAA 145 bracket, earning him the title of state champion. Eren will be heading to the University of Michigan this fall to wrestle and plans to train year-round in Ann Arbor with a goal of making the USA world team.
“Eren is an exceptional athlete and young man who has done his school and community proud. I have no doubt he will achieve great success in both his wrestling and academic careers at University of Michigan.”
Chase Williams won the PIAA AAA 107 bracket, bringing home the state championship title to Central Bucks East High School. Chase is only the 2nd state champion in wrestling in Central Bucks East’s 56 -year history, and the first since 1982. Chase tied the school record by winning 40 matches this season, and he is also the first freshman in East’s history to win the Southeast Regional tournament.
“Chase has shown incredible promise and achievement in his first-year wrestling for Central Bucks East. I look forward to following his high school wrestling career and I would not be surprised to see him back in the Capitol for another championship recognition soon.”
