In a game rescheduled from late last week due to weather, Charlotte Catholic defeated Hough HS 24-19 Tuesday night.
This game was between the two undefeated school teams in North Carolina, and the result confirms Charlotte Catholic is the #1 seed when the semifinals come.
Charlotte Catholic used their rush defense to put Hough under pressure, and with that they also worked to control the breakdown.
"Our forwards were immense," said Head Coach Jason Zehmke.
Lukas Lupinski, Keane Teeter, and Finley Costello led the forward effort for Catholic. For Hough, No. 8 Kai Campbell scored all three tries—this was the first time in four years that the Hough forwards scored more than the backs.
