Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion High School Brother Combinations

The Hahn bros are the only ones i can remember that three of them were all in the state finals, I THINK in three consecutive weights, the same year. That was an especailly tough accomplishment due to the fact that they were all different ages, not twins or triplets or anything. I guess that may have happened some other time but that's the only one I can remember. I am sure their parents were a nervous wreck!!!!!

There were also the Frakes bros from Douglass-- Charlie and Jr. were the ones I remember but I htink there was a third one too.

Rick,
Both Saferite's won their championships at Augusta.

Kirk and Roger Baker were both state champions at Goodland. I think Kirk went on to coach somewhere. (smile)

The two Gabel brothers in St. Francis won 7 out of a possible 8 state titles.

Austin and Ross Devoe

Dalefish, thank you for your comments on my lack of intelligence. I see you are a reader. I said I thought they were I didn't know, but hey as Kris Kristoferson said, "If you don't have anyone else in the world to look down on feel free to use me". Go for it. Being wrong is really not a big deal, I see you are still living in Bucklin, sort of an IQ check there isn't it.

The Coleman family, do I need to say more.

From Plainville, the Birds: Brian and Shane, both 4x placers with Shane as a champ in 2000. The Staabs: Scott (95) and TJ (02), he was runner-up in 00 and 01.
From Stockton, the McDonalds: Charlie (92) and Cliff (93).
From Concordia, the Dongs: John was champ in 88,89,91, and runner up in 90 career record of 110-6, Tony runner-up in 88, champ in 89 career record of 53-1, Chris got 2nd in 92.
Also from Concordia, the Ngos: Chris was champ in 93,94,95, career record of 118-1, his only loss was in the finals his freshman year (92). Brian was 3rd in 97 and champ in 98.

Don't forget the Ward brothers from Norton.
I believe all three of them were state champs.

Stan, Marc, and Dave.

Also, I believe the Klein brothers from Norton were both state champs. Mark and Bill.

the Schippers brothers from Hoxie are pretty good. the Tracy's fro Coffeyville have talent(not much but some..haha)

Hey Westfahl, you were right about the segers. They were triplets, at three different weight classes. Ulysses has had some great brother combos. The Cruths never could beat the roark brothers in the finals but they were both tougher than nails. Brandon Cruth was an all american but couldn't beat Randy. My brother Wes and I were both state champs from Ulysses, along with my dad Ron Walker.I can remember alot of great brother combos throughout the years. Vests,Drakes,Saferites,Bahes,Kosters,Keiswitters,
Biddles,Franks.I'm sure if I thought about it I could keep going.

Wag--help out here; wasn't there a father-son combination from Plainville--both state champs?

Westfahl--You are an old Kinsley Coyote--There were two brothers who were good wrestlers--one of them coached GCCC in the '80's and last I knew was coaching in Germany--shoot! I can't think of their last names--weren' they both state placers?

The Taylor Brothers(Kenny & Gaylen) from West, Nichols Brothers(Jordan & Jason) from Garden, The Vogels from Carroll, maybe the Leins and Metzlers

What about the Schwartz brothers from Great Bend? Justin was a three time placer. Fresh. 2nd Soph. 3rd and 3rd his senior year. Devin was a 4x placer fresh. 4th soph 6th (broken collor bone) junior 1st and 2nd his senior year losing a match he should have won against a very talented wrestler you may have heard of him Tanner Gardner lol. That right there is a nice brother group if i say so myself.

And also what about the VanEaton (sp) brothers from stockton?

Can't believe I forgot about Trent and Thane Van Eaton. They were good!!

Duane and Dwight Warner were the two Kinsley guys. At one time we had 35 kids who were part of brother combinations on one team there and made the Grit newspaper which we were all really fired up about. Course then we read it and it made us sound like a bunch of hillbillies (which we were but didnt want to be reminded of lol).

The McCormick brothers from BV North
Both state Champs and mutli-placers

There was actually 6 Frake's brothers from Douglass. JL and Jr. were state placers in the early 70's. Charlie was a two time state champion in 72 and 73. Richard was a three time state champion in 75, 76, and 78. He was a runner-up in 77. Steve and Jason were one time state champions in the 90's.
