Chapel Hill, April 9, 2008 - Wachovia Bank, N.A., and the North Carolina High School Athletic Association today announced the standings after the winter sports seasons in the Wachovia Cup competitions for the 2007-08 academic year. The Wachovia Cup award, sponsored by Wachovia Bank, N.A., and the NCHSAA, recognizes the high schools that achieve the best overall interscholastic athletic performances within each of the state’s four competitive classifications. The Wachovia Cup program is in its 29th year. Chapel Hill moved past fall leader Charlotte Myers Park to take over first place in the 4-A standings while Charlotte Catholic and Asheville continue their battle in the 3-A ranks, with Charlotte Catholic holding a 55-point lead. Raleigh Cardinal Gibbons continues to pace the 2-A classification while Kernersville Bishop McGuinness holds the top spot among the 1-A schools. Charlotte Catholic remained in first in the 3-A classification on the strength of winning two swimming championships for a total of 362.5 points. Asheville finished second among 3-A schools in the men’s indoor track championships, placed sixth in men’s swimming and tied for fifth in men’s basketball to earn 307.5 points. Three-time defending Wachovia champ T.C. Roberson, with a pair of fifth-place finishes in swimming, is in third at 242.5 points. Wachovia Cup points are determined by a system based on performance in state-championship events. All schools that finish in the top eight positions (plus ties) earn points. In the playoff events involving teams from more than one classification, Wachovia Cup points are awarded based on the school’s standing against other schools in its own classification. If fewer then eight schools from a classification compete in a sport, only those schools that are represented are eligible to receive the Wachovia Cup points. Points are awarded for all sports as follows: 50 for first, 45 for second, 40 for third, 35 for fourth, 30 for fifth, 25 for sixth, 20 for seventh and 15 for eighth. In the event of a tie, the schools receive an equal number of points based on the number of teams that tie and the number of teams that finish higher in the standings. Five points are awarded for each sanctioned sport in which a school competes. Wachovia Cup standings are announced three times each school year: once after the fall and then the winter sports, and concluding with the winner after the spring sports season ends in June. The engraved silver cups are presented during NCHSAA Day activities at UNC-Chapel Hill each fall.
