Possible Lineup in 2026
The back-to-back Group 2 Champs reload as they aim for a three-peat.
The Bulldogs took some dings to graduation, but have a strong core back throughout the lineup to reload the chamber. Junior Sonny Amato, a State champ in 2024 and a 3rd-place finisher in 2025, anchors the middleweight group that will have some new faces in it. Among those new faces are junior Wyatt Fry, who transfers in from national power Wyoming Seminary, while several underclassmen look to crack into the lineup as well.
A strong group returns down low with the senior trio of Joaquin Duque, who went 41-8 in 2025 and placed 5th at States, Eamon Fry, who was a win away from a medal in Atlantic City last year, and Andrew Newell.
Senior Luke Dougherty leads the charge up top. Dougherty is a 2-time State qualifier looking to cap his career with a spot on the Boardwalk Hall podium before heading off to the Coast Guard Academy next season. There's an experienced group returning around him up top with senior William Keller and junior Hunter Curley each having placed 3rd at Districts last season, while senior Ben Roberts and sophomore Milo Jones, who both looked good in the action they saw last season behind the departed Conor Delaney and Matt Smith at 215-Hwt
