Cary's 11th State Championship in the TournamentSome facts about our recent successes:
On Feb. 9th our wrestlers who the school's seventh Dual Team State Championship making it 3 in the last 4 years. Cary finished undefeated for the second year in a row and now has a record of 139-1 over these present seniors last four years. Justin Koren one of the senior captains was named the State Duals Outstanding Wrestler for the 4A.
The wrestlers followed that up by winning the State 4A Individual Championships on Feb. 23rd scoring a whopping 174 points which ranks second all-time in the 4A history. Five Cary wrestlers won State titles in their weight classes which tied a record. No team has placed at least four champions on three different occassions. Cary had four champions in the years 2000, 2007 and of course the five this year. In 1988 Cary had three champs.
This was Cary's 11th State Championship in the tournament: (Coach Winterton's 10th)
77,87,88,89,97,00,03,05,06,07,08
This was Cary's 7th State Dual Championship:
93,96,97,98,05,07,08
Coach Winterton has been at Cary since 1981.

5th place-Matt Colvard 10th grade wt. 135 57-8 record
2nd place-Gabe Brotzman 11th grade wt. 152 52-4 record

From our website:
18X!!! Imps Take State With Five Individual Champs!
Cary grapplers have taken team State Championship number 18 at the NCHSAA Individual State championships in Winston-Salem!  All 9 Imps advancing to State by virtue of placing in the Regional tournament contributed wins to Championship #18, with 7 of the 9 placing (top 6). Josh (Lionheart) Cobb at 160# contributed a pin to the team tally, and a game but sore Cordale Risk at 119# came within one match of placing with 3 wins in an extremely stacked bracket. Matt Colvard at 135# wrestled a particularly challenging bracket as well, defeating some tough competition on the way to a fifth place finish. The Imps advanced 6 wrestlers to the State Championship finals, with a Cary record 5 taking the Individual Championship. Champion runner-up Gabe Brotzman at 152# showed guts and fire in facing 3X state champion Nick Gregoris of Chapel Hill,  frustrating Gregoris‚s best efforts with a tenacious and unrelenting aggression before finally falling in a minor decision. Returning State Champion and Junior Eloheim Palma added Individual State Championship #2 as a cap to his undefeated season by defeating also undefeated (up until he faced the E-train) Tyler Shately in the Heaeyweight final. Team Captain and returning State Champion Justin Koren also capped an undefeated season with another cool and efficient pin that was over in the time it took this author to look away and wave to a friend. By this author‚s unoffical count, the Lehigh-bound captain set the example for his team by going unscored upon during the tourney (making counting his opponent‚s points extremely easy). Senior Lawrence White capped an outstanding Cary career of his own with a solid State Championship victory at 130# over highly-touted J.C. Wagner of Laney. Sushi for you, Lawrence. Senior Brendan Parker-Risk again thrilled the crowd with a come-from-behind State Championship pin over Savva Kostis of Wautauga in the highly contested 145# bracket, repeating his stirring win in the finals of the Tiger. Brendan caps a high school career that includes placing as a Sophomore in Washington before moving to Cary and a third place finish a year ago with a convincing and dominant performance in a highly-competitive weight class stacked with top wrestlers. The out of nowhere award goes to Freshman Ben Creed at 103#, earning a State Championship against all non-Cary prognostications with a focused and controlled performance throughout the tourney. Ranked sixth by the critics going into the tourney, the 14 year-old showed poise, heart, and grit beyond his years in wrestling his way to becoming the first Freshman State Champion in the long and illustrious history of Cary Wrestling.
