Preston Keiffer at 160, Robert Deutsch at 119, and Cal Stack at 135 won district titles for Eastern. Sophomore Jacob Backal (103) and senior Hank Stinson (140) placed second.
The top three in each weight class advance to the Region 7 tournament scheduled for 5 p.m. Tuesday at Robbinsville.
Bordentown coach Joe Sprague was voted coach of the year in District 26 by his peers. Willingboro's James Green won the most valuable wrestler award after upsetting Stinson, 5-3, at 140.
"I did what I was supposed to do," said the usually taciturn Baldosaro, a two-time state champion at 140 pounds. "Winning four district titles has always been a goal of mine."
"Now I have a regional title to train for and redeem my loss to [Taylor] Walsh," Baldosaro said. "I'm hoping to meet up with Walsh in the regional. We should be the one-two seeds."
On Jan. 15, Walsh, of Camden Catholic, handed Baldosaro (26-2) one of his losses and was the only area wrestler to beat him. Baldosaro lost by injury default.
Keiffer, a senior 160-pounder, drew energy from Baldosaro in winning his fourth district crown by pinning Burlington Township senior Ervin Goree in 3 minutes, 29 seconds.
Deutsch, a junior, won his third district crown by scoring a major decision over third-seeded Shawn Grob of Riverside, 17-2. Deutsch is aiming for his second consecutive state title.
Moorestown's Patrick Schmidt became the school's first four-time district champion by upsetting the No. 1 seed at 125, Delran's Dan Pak, 3-1. Schmidt, whose record is 25-4, was the second seed.
In semifinal action, there was a huge upset when Delran's Mike Bohn, a fifth seed, edged top-seeded Mike Dwyer of Cinnaminson, 7-6, in the heavyweight bout. Moorestown senior Ken Ewers pinned Bohn in 1:21 in the championship bout.
Team scores were also calculated and Eastern took the honors.
