Cole brothers from Conner.
Tom, Troy, and Todd
I need a definition of All State. Does that mean state placer or state qualifier. Top 8 like AA in college??? (only placed top 4 till 80's and top 6 till 2000's)
Powell brothers from Fairdale/Doss.
Jude - 1st 175 2023, 2nd 165 2022, 6th 152 2021
Simon - 4th 170 2020
Max - 4th 160 2018, 8th 145 2016
I have been trying to keep something like this. Family History of brothers and Dads and Sons.
Families I have but not sure if brothers, cousins, dads, uncles ect.
Jude (Sh. Cl.), Leavelle (Christ), Merritt (Hop), Stepp (Sh Cl), Walls (Cald).
I have figured out. Cole (Con), Cooper (SK), Courtney (Wood), Ervin (Un), Herron-leak (NH)
Two that immediately come to mind are the Wilkinsons from Henry Clay and the Andreonis from Woodford.
Patrick Wilkinson (285) 6th in 1996
RIP- John Paul Wilkinson (189) 2nd & 3rd in 1999 & 2000
Josh Wilkinson (140 & 160) 2nd & 3rd in 1999 & 2001- was injured in 2000.
I'm not sure about the exact placements and years of Max, Wyatt and Gavin Andreoni. I know Max was finally a state champ his senior year, think Gavin just graduated in 2022 or so, and Wyatt was between them.

The post originally started with 3 brothers. But I'm in for all.
I originally was looking for Father/son combinations. They don't have to be placers just state qualifiers.
I love this kind of stuff. I'm trying to get Ky wrestling history together. Most states have something, but we don't.
I have full state brackets back to 1971 and partial brackets from 1964 to 1970, if you know anyone who may have some of these please let me know.
I personally had the brackets back to 1982, Coach Sellers gave me back to 1971 and Jullian Tackett got me the partials from Coach Walls. Thanks coaches.
