CHHS girls’ and boys’ teams both ranked

Chapel Hill is the only 3A school in the top 10 of the News &Observer’s rankings this week for both boys’ and girls’ basketball. The CHHS girls are No. 4 and the boys are No. 9.

Carrboro also appears in the boys’ ranking for the first time this season, debuting at No. 15.

Chapel Hill’s Raleigh rival, Cardinal Gibbons, appears in both polls, but just outside the top 10. The Crusader boys are No. 11, and the girls are No. 12.

Tigers easily pin Cardinal Gibbons

Chapel Hill High School’s wrestlers picked up a Carolina-6, dual-meet win with Tuesday’s 72-6 victory over Cardinal Gibbons. Wrestling at East Chapel Hill because Cardinal Gibbons had been unable to schedule their own gym in time, the Crusaders forfeited six matches to Chapel Hill.

Four Tigers won by falls. Arthur Colson pinned his man in 46 seconds and improved to 31-4 overall at 285 pounds. He has yet to lose to a 3A opponent this season.

Zachary Allen (106 pounds) went 5:25 into his match to pin Brooks Bailey. Thomas Davis (113) and Camden Bergey (145) pinned their men in less than 2 minutes.

Chapel Hill’s Joe Carter (152) and Andrew Hotong (182) won by decisions.
