Ultimate Duals Scouting Report
Brookville continues its annual Ultimate Duals event which started in 1997. All the other top AA schools in the state will watch to see Saturday's results! Read on to get more details than you need to know about each competing team.
Match Schedule
Before we jump into the weeds, here is the full schedule for all teams. All matches are at Brookville High School, Brookville, PA.
10:00 am Brookville vs Chestnut Ridge Burrell vs Fort LeBoeuf 11:30 am Brookville vs Fort LeBoeuf Chestnut Ridge vs Reynolds 1:00 pm Burrell vs Reynolds Chestnut Ridge vs Fort LeBoeuf 2:30 pm Brookville vs Burrell Fort LeBoeuf vs Reynolds 4:00 pm Burrell vs Chestnut Ridge Brookville vs Reynolds
Overview & Team Rankings
Once the holidays are over, the wrestling season seems like a carnival ride with one thrill after another. But the one coming up on Saturday has become a recent tradition that acts as the barometer for judging the participating schools' post season capabilities.
The keys for all 5 teams are no different than usual except the tolerance for sticking to the game plan is much more narrow than normal.
The individual matchups are very critical. If a team can nuetralize a big gun on the opponent's side with their own star performer, you take away potential team points they were counting on. Count on coaches jockying their lineups in attempts to get the favorable matchups.
Conversely, you must win the "undercard" matches -- the unranked but still competitive wrestlers that face off need to pull off that win or minor upset.
Bonus points! As always, getting pins and tech falls can be a huge factor. And your inexperienced wrestlers need to fight off their backs.
Every team is capable of beating each other; all are state ranked...
STATE Rankings (Jan 10)

15. Fort LeBoeuf 7-3
17. Brookville 10-1

Additionally, we have two regional listings. Note that Reynolds and Brookville swapped order - not sure why??

If you read the detail individual roster information below, it will seem clear that individual mathups and lineup shifting will impact several matches throughout the day. Don't expect many forfeits as most every team fields a full lineup - a requirement for any team with state duals aspirations.
Individual Rankings
Expect to watch several matchups that will repeat during the post season in February and March. You will see 29 wrestlers that are ranked in the top 25 for their weight class and except for 152 lbs, every weight class has at least one ranked competitor.
Note - the state rankings used here do not include our own Louie Gill because he is not eligible for post season competition this year. But some polls have him ranked #1 or #2 at 114 lbs.
By School, the counts are:
