DURHAM, N.C. —After combining for seven wins this past weekend, Duke wrestling redshirt sophomore Connor Barket moved up in the rankings, while sophomore Aidan Wallace entered the WrestleStat ledger at heavyweight and 165 pounds, respectively.Â
Â
A native of West Lafayette, Ind., Barket went a perfect 4-0 and registered his first ranked victory last weekend for the Blue Devils. He has collected a 13-2 record on the season and owns a nine-match winning streak as he moved to No. 22 nationally.
Â
Barket came through in the clutch against 33rd-ranked Jack Forbes of Utah Valley as he registered an escape and takedown late in the third period for a come-from-behind win in a 7-6 decision. It marked Barket's first ranked win of his short career.Â
Â
After seeing action in only four matches a season ago, Wallace has jumped out to a 13-4 start on the year. He has won 10 out of his last 12 matches and went 3-1 last weekend for the Blue Devils. Wallace, who is from Mahwah, N.J., opened at No. 33 at the 165-pound weight class.Â
