August 31, 2011

After leading Fred T. Foard to a 3A state wrestling title, the Tigers’ coach is being rewarded for his efforts.

Mike Carey, coach of the Foard wrestling program since 2008, was named the North Carolina 3A wrestling coach of the year by Mat News. The announcement came earlier this week.

“It’s the ‘cherry on top’ to our good season,” Carey said of the honor. “This is a product of all the work the boys did. It was their work. This is another way to honor them.”
