NCHSAA 4-A cross country Mid East Regionals


CARY —
Three schools — Green Hope, Broughton and Chapel Hill — dominated both the boys and girls N.C. High School Athletic Association 4-A cross country Mid East Regionals on Saturday.


UPDATE:
With complete boys and girls results.

East Chapel Hill at Orange, ppd.

Effects are still being felt from the heavy rains that inundated the Triangle in midweek. Tonight’s football in Hillsborough between East Chapel Hill and host Orange has been postponed before the first drop of rain Friday.

East Chapel Hill (0-1) now is scheduled to play at 7 p.m. Monday at Orange (1-0).

Orange’s field is situated between two concrete stands, which tend to funnel rains into the middle. Significant standing water remained across the playing surface Wednesday, and the field was still thoroughly saturated Friday morning.

"They said they walked out onto the field and sank down to their shins in one spot," East Chapel Hill athletics director Ray Hartsfield said. "They’re worried someone could get seriously hurt."

The JVs will play Sept. 11 in Chapel Hill.

Orange’s decision leaves the county without a game tonight. Chapel Hill High School (0-1) has a bye week; Cedar Ridge (0-1) is at Bartlett Yancey (0-1) in Caswell County; and Carrboro (0-1) is at Burlington Cummings (0-1).

Soccer matches rescheduled

The soccer match Aug. 27 between East Chapel Hill (1-0-1) and Apex (1-0-1) was cancelled due to lightning and heavy rain Wednesday in the Chapel Hill area. It has not been rescheduled at this time.
Apex still has a big early season test coming Sept. 4 at Chapel Hill High School. Apex is No. 3 in the latest N.C. Coaches poll and No. 4 in the N&O’s Triangle Top 12. CHHS (2-0-0) is No. 10 and No. 7 in those same polls.
Chapel Hill also had to reschedule a midweek match. The CHHS game at Raleigh Ravenscroft, the Tigers’ oldest soccer rival, has been reset for Thursday at 7 p.m. (A JV match at 5:30 p.m. precedes the varsities.)
Even without a rematch yet with Apex, some changes to the ECH schedule have been made; notably, Carrboro at East Chapel Hill has been moved from next week to Oct. 17 at 5 p.m. in Wildcat Stadium. Also, both ECH games with Hillside are cancelled, since Hillside failed to field a varsity team this fall.

High school tennis rankings

East Chapel Hill and Broughton are ranked among the top 10 in the N.C. High School Tennis Poll. Cardinal Gibbons and Durham Science & Math lead their classifications.
