There have been many faces in Brandon's program, some of which have looked pretty similar. Here is a list of state-title winning siblings to wrestle for the Eagles during The Streak (in alphabetical order):

The Cozarts — Russ Cozart's sons, Rocky and Joey. Rocky, a 2005 grad, was a three-time state champion, while Joey won his first as a freshman last season.

The Grajales — Cesar and Eric have been two of the best wrestlers to ever come through Brandon. Cesar, a 2005 grad, is one of two four-time state champions in program history, while Eric, currently a junior, is already a two-time state champ and undefeated as an Eagle.

The Gustafsons — Todd and Bret each won two titles, Todd repeating as 145-pound champ in 1983-84 and Bret as 140-pound champ in 1986-87. The two combined for 161 victories.

The Joyces — Ryan went 166-11 at Brandon and won his lone state title as a senior in 2003. Sean won three individual titles at Brandon (and four overall) and ended his career last season with a state-record 260 wins (165 with the Eagles).

The Lambrechts — Josh and Zac each posted at least 100 career wins and each won individual titles in 1998, Zac at 125 pounds and Josh at 171.

The Parrys — Both Adam and Todd won their lone state title as a senior. Adam, the younger brother and 1988 grad, went 67-6 in his career and won a 160-pound title; Todd, an '86 grad, finished his career 42-4 and won a 145-pound title.

The Urquharts — Ken went 54-5 in his career and won the 130-pound title as a senior in 1991. Kris went 87-9 in his career and won the 160-pound title as a senior in 1996.
