By Keelen Barlow

The Brownsburg varsity wrestling team will travel to Fort Wayne, Indiana for the 2020 IHSWCA Class 3A Team State Duals. Action will get underway at 9 a.m. from Allen County War Memorial Coliseum.

Brownsburg comes into the weekend with a 13-1 record in duals this season.

     'Dogs in the Rankings

IndianaMat.com released its latest State Individual rankings just before the end of 2019. The most-notable move in the rankings for Brownsburg is 106-pound Logan Miller's jump to the No.1 spot.

113-pound Braden Haines, 152-pound Jacob Cookery, 170-pound Greg Glover and 220-pound Leighton Jones also climbed at least one spot in the latest rankings.  

     About the Field

Twelve teams are a part of the IHSWCA Class 3A Field. Teams are determined by a number of different factors including the amount of points a team earned in the previous season's IHSAA individual state series. Dual wins and losses during the current season are taken into account for determining team seeds.

Brownsburg finished in first place last season at the IHSAA Wrestling Semi-State in Evansville to earn an automatic invite to this year's Team State Duals.

Seven of the top-ten teams in the latest Indiana Mat Overall Team rankings will compete for a 2020 IHSWCA Class 3A Team State Duals championship this weekend. No.11 Avon, No.3 Brownsburg, No.8 Carmel, Carrol (FW), No.1 Cathedral, Columbus East, No.2 Evansville Mater Dei, Mishawaka, Penn, No.7 Perry Meridian, No.10 Roncalli and No.5 Warren Central are all a part of the IHSWCA Class 3A field.

Brownsburg is grouped with Penn and Carmel in "Pool C" and will wrestle the Kingsmen and Greyhounds in their first two duals of the day. Team records in the pool stage will determine placement in the bracket stage later in the day.

The first-place teams will be grouped in one bracket to determine the 2020 IHSWCA Class 3A Team State Duals champion.

     'Dog Dynasty

Brownsburg comes in looking to continue its run of four consecutive IHSWCA Class 3A Team State Duals championships. The Bulldogs have been crowned Duals State champions in four of head coach Darrick Snyder's five prior seasons with the Bulldogs.

Last season, Brownsburg defeated No.1 ranked Cathedral 30-24 in the IHSWCA Team State Duals Semi-Finals. The Bulldogs defeated Warren Central to claim their fourth straight title.
