VIRGINIA HIGH SCHOOL LEAGUE ANNOUNCES
CHAMPIONS IN WACHOVIA CUP ATHLETIC COMPETITION
State champions of VHSL state
champs! Winners of the 2003 Wachovia Cups for year-long excellence in
Virginia High School League athletic activities are Brentsville
District, Blacksburg and Lake Braddock.
All have won before, with
Brentsville dominating Group A for the third consecutive year;
Blacksburg back on top of Group AA after winning the cup in 1990, 1991
and 1993; and Lake Braddock building on Group AAA wins in 1998 and
2001.
Brentsville, which moves to Group AA
next year, won fall, winter and spring competition to take a
97.5-point decision over second-place James Monroe. Blacksburg had led
in the fall but dropped to seventh after winter play before rebounding
to dominate spring competition to edge Heritage-Lynchburg by 10
points. Lake Braddock also led in the fall but fell to second before
rebounding with a strong spring for a 100-point margin over Frank Cox.
The League’s most coveted
recognition, the cups have been presented for 14 years, first by
Central Fidelity and now by Wachovia bank. The award recognizes the
VHSL schools with the best overall interscholastic athletic and
academic activities programs each year. Cups are presented for
athletic and academic activities to the top school in each of the
League’s enrollment groups. George Washington (AAA), Charlottesville
(AA) and Madison County (A) were announced earlier as 2003 winners for
academic activities.
The winner of the Wachovia Cup is
determined by a point system based on performance in state
championship events. Points are awarded for all sanctioned sports in
the following manner:
|
First place |
50 |
Fifth place |
30 |
|
Second place |
45 |
Sixth place |
25 |
|
Third place |
40 |
Seventh place |
20 |
|
Fourth place |
35 |
Eighth place |
15 |
In the event of a tie, the schools
receive an equal number of points based on the number of schools that
tie and the number of schools that finish higher in the standings. For
example, the baseball quarterfinal losers equally divide total points
for fifth through eighth place (22.5 points each) while semifinal
losers split third and fourth place (37.5 points each).
Schools earning the League’s
Sportsmanship, Ethics and Integrity Award earn 50 points each.
Brentsville (345) finished among the state’s Top 5
in eight sports and scored the most total points ever in Group A,
winning state championships in boys cross country, wrestling and girls
soccer and finishing second in girls track; third in girls cross
country, cheer and boys track; and fifth in golf. The previous Group A
record was 305, set by Strasburg in 1999. James Monroe (247.5) scored
points in seven events to finish second this year. George Mason
(202.5) was third, Gate City (192.5) fourth and George
Wythe-Wytheville (185) fifth.
Blacksburg (255) took Group AA by winning the state
championship in girls basketball, finishing second in boys soccer,
fourth in golf and boys swim/dive and eighth in girls cross country
and reaching the semifinals in girls soccer and boys tennis. Heritage
(245) placed in only five events but won state championships in four
of them: football, boys indoor and outdoor track and girls outdoor
track, while also finishing second in girls indoor track. Jamestown
(230) finished third, Fauquier (212.5) fourth and Tabb (205) fifth.
Lake Braddock (365) scored the second highest total
ever in Group AAA, earning points in 10 events: a state championship
in girls soccer; second in field hockey and boys soccer; third in
girls cross country; fourth in boys cross country, boys outdoor track
and girls outdoor track; fifth in girls indoor track, a tie for fifth
in boys indoor track, and quarterfinals in girls basketball. Frank Cox
set the record (407.5) in 1997. Cox (265) finished second this year,
Great Bridge (251.5) third, Thomas Jefferson S&T (245) fourth and
James Robinson (224) fifth.
"Winning a state championship in a single sport
is a remarkable achievement; it is the exceptional school that
dominates VHSL competition in multiple sports throughout the
year," said Ken Tilley, VHSL executive director. "We are
pleased that so many schools, 191 this year, figure in the final
standings. We congratulate all the schools that did well, but
especially Brentsville District, Blacksburg and Lake Braddock, and we
thank Wachovia for supporting this important recognition."
The Wachovia Cup will be presented formally at the
University of Virginia’s VHSL Day football game against Duke on Aug.
30.

Cup athletic standings for spring sports and for the full year.
