Avery Falls to Uwharrie Charter in 2024 North Carolina High School Dual Team Wrestling State Championship; Will Still Compete for Individual, Over-All State Team Title

The North Carolina High School Athletic Association’s (NCHSAA) Dual Team Wrestling Playoffs were held January 26 through February 3 at various sites and concluded on Saturday in the Novant Health Field House at the Greensboro Coliseum Complex.

Uwharrie Charter claimed its second consecutive Dual Team State Championship with a 36-33 win against Avery County. The schools have met in the last four dual team finals. Avery won the first two (2020 and 2022) during that span. No tournament was held in 2021 due to the Coronavirus Pandemic.

This year’s championship was decided in the final match as Uwharrie’s Jaden Maness and Avery’s Connor Brewer wrestled with the Vikings leading 33-30.
