Three State Championship Teams

For our student-athletes, the school year begins long before the first class bell ever rings in August. The sweating, the training, the fatigue, the soreness...in some cases is a year-round challenge.

All of this work, all of these athletes - but just one common goal...a state championship.

The 2017-18 athletics year is off to a great start as three Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools high school teams accomplished that goal during the Fall sports season. 

Congratulations to the Chapel Hill High Women's Cross Country and Men's Soccer teams, along with the Carrboro High Volleyball team - all brought home state championships. 

"Due to their hard work and determination, these student-athletes won the ultimate prize of a sports season, a NCHSAA State Championship," said CHCCS Director of Athletics Scarlett Steinert. "We are so happy for their success throughout the season. It will create memories that last a lifetime."

Our student-athletes work diligently to maintain good grades, keep in playing shape, constantly learn and improve skills and strategies, and juggle a very busy schedule. They are to be commended for their hard work, focus and dedication to excellence. 

Our coaches are amazing individuals who have the ability to motivate and encourage our student-athletes, while helping them strike an appropriate life balance.

The families of these champions also deserve our gratitude. They make significant sacrifices during the season, and in many cases throughout the year. 

Thank you and congratulations to everyone who helped to make these dreams a reality!
