Two state titles, one 2nd for CA in wrestling

February 20, 2017

At the 18-team NCISAA State Wrestling Tournament held at Cary Academy on Feb. 17-18, two Chargers won state titles.

Earning top individual honors for the Chargers were brothers Julian and Christian Sodano. Christian (’19) toughed out a hard-fought double overtime battle with Wesleyan Christian Academy’s second seed, Cameron Johnson, at the 126-pound weight class and won the first CA state title of the night. Julian (’18) made quick work out of Charlotte Country Day School’s number one-seeded wrestler, Max Spada, at the 138-pound weight class to pick up the second state title of the night.

Joe McDarris (’18), fashioned his way through the 152-pound bracket getting to finals, losing to Charlotte Latin’s senior, Jack Sobel, and finishing as a state runner-up. Chapman Fitzgerald (’18) finished 4th in the 132-pound weight class. Osamah Atieh (’19) finished sixth at the 170-pound weight class. Also finishing 6th for the Chargers were Andrew Lee (’17) at the 182-pound bracket, and Isiah Hoile (’18) at the 195-pound spot.

The CA team once again placed sixth coming within less than 50 points of the top four team spots.
