WHS captures second consecutive Wachovia Conference Cup

For the second straight year, Whiteville High School has won the Wells Fargo Conference Cup for the Three Rivers 1A-2A Conference The Wolfpack used first-place finishes in baseball, softball and girls soccer this past spring to clinch the 2014-15 Wells Fargo race with a total of 115.5 points. Whiteville had earlier taken TRC titles in football, girls tennis, boys soccer and girls cross country. South Columbus, which claimed TRC titles in golf and boys tennis during the spring, finished second in the standings with 83 points. There was an extremely tight finish for third place with Red Springs coming away with that position with 76.5 points. St. Pauls finished fourth with 74.5 and Fairmont took fifth with 73. Rounding out the final point standings were East Columbus with 59, South Robeson with 53 and West Columbus with 44.5.
