Brown will wrestle Deer Creek senior Tyler Follis in the final. Follis is 32-3 this season, and got to the final match by beating John Cardenas of Northwest Classen and Cory Barnett of Western Heights.
Brown beat Ryan Goodfox of Shawnee and Griffin Qualls of Coweta in the first two rounds.

Dakota Resendez (113), Triston Hill (145) and David Eakers (132) each split their first two matches, and will wrestle in the consolation semifinals Saturday morning, still having a chance to place third or fourth.
