In wrestling, a dual can best be described as a match between two teams of all 14 weight classes. A dual is won by the team who has the most points after the conclusion of all matches. On January 11, the MatJackets were sectional duals runner up after falling 48-24 to Oldham County. The win earned the Jackets their spot to compete at the 2020 state dual championships. The Jackets kicked off the state duals with a win of 47-33 over Madison Central. Woodford forfeited the weight classes 113-126 giving Central 18 points after already winning the dual through points alone.
