Congratulations
to the men’s swimming and diving team for finishing 20th in the 4A
State Championships held yesterday. Holt
Gray started things off with a new school record of 465.90 and a 6th
place finish in diving. Colter Carman
then set a new school record in the 200 free with a 1:44.26 as he finished 11th. Colter then added a new record in the 500
free of 4:33.33 as he finished 3rd.
Colter finished his rewriting of the BHS record book as he, along with
Smith Moran, Jack Messenger, and Bancks Holmes took down the oldest record in
the book, the 400 free relay, with a time of 3:19.85. This beat the record from 1987 set by Victor
Bonito, Chris Whitaker, Eric Teague, and Steve Pickard. Jack also swam the 100 freestyle and the 100 breaststroke, finishing 18th in both.
Way to go guys!

Burt Wins Cap 8 Wrestling Championship
Senior Lamont Burt led the Broughton wrestling team with a dominating performance at the Cap 8 conference tournament last weekend at Leesville Rd. High School. Burt won by technical fall in the championship bout and secured a #1 seed for the upcoming Regional tournament. Burt ran his record to 35-2 on the year.
Another remarkable performance came from Senior Umang Patel at 182 lbs. Relatively new to the sport, Umang capped off his senior season by pinning two higher seeded opponents and placing fourth.
Senior Manny Robinson reached the championship finals in the 170 lbs. class. Robinson has come on very strong in the back half of the season and is poised to make a deep run at Regionals.
Freshman Nash Philbeck ran his record to 28-6, and was the conference runner up. Philbeck won the crowd over in the championship finals before barely falling to his senior ranked opponent 4-3.
Broughton will send 12 wrestlers to compete at the 4A Mideast Regional tournament this Friday and Saturday at Wake Forest High School.
