2011-2012 Wells Fargo Conference Cup
Leaders Listed For Fall Sports Season
Wells Fargo, along with the North Carolina High School Athletic Association, today announced the fall standings in the Wells Fargo Conference Cup competitions for the 2011-2012 sports season.
The Wells Fargo Cup award, formerly called the Wachovia Cup and now sponsored by Wells Fargo and the NCHSAA, recognizes the high schools that achieve the best overall interscholastic athletic performance within each of the state’s four competitive classifications. Wachovia, now Wells Fargo, has sponsored the conference awards program since 1980.
The Wells Fargo Conference Cup is a companion to the Wells Fargo Cup. It is based on how schools perform in conference competition only and does not factor in state playoff competition.
In most conferences, points are awarded based on participation and standings in conference play. Each conference determines its own method of awarding points. Conferences are listed alphabetically by classification.
