GREENSBORO, N.C. — Washington High School’s wrestling team has three competitors who finished the NC High School Athletic Association Class 2A state championship as runner-up in the finals of their respective weight class.

The state championships wrapped up Monday at First Horizon Coliseum in Greensboro. The three-day event was moved from Feb. 20-22 to this past Saturday-Monday due to last week’s winter weather.

Sam Boltes (106 pounds), Bryce Perry (126 pounds) and Gabe Foreman (144 pounds) each finished the three-day event with second-place finishes, falling short of a state title in their first-place matches after each going 3-0.

Washington’s team finished sixth overall with 74.5 points. Seaforth won the 2A state title with 149 points.

Washington also had four other wrestlers compete in the 2A state finals. Tucker Massie (132 pounds) went 1-2, Evan Makepeace (175) went 0-2, Trenton Baldree (190) went 1-2 and Cooper Johnson (285) went 0-2.
