If any high school teams are looking for an out of state tournament, we host North Carolina's best 1 day tournament, Foard TigerLand will be Dec 19 in 2020.  Last year we had 4 state championship teams, 12 state champs, 45 state placers from 4 states.  We also have a jv tournament at the same time. 
 
If you are interested, shoot me an email at:  mike_carey@catawbaschools.net
 
Also, if anyone is looking to re-locate to North Carolina and coach, Foard HS may be able to help.  We have a few teaching openings this coming year, and can take a non-faculty coach as well.  It's a great place to live, with the weather having with 4 distinct seasons.  There are professional, skilled labor, and blue collar jobs in the Newton & Hickory area. We are within 4 hours of beach, within 1 hour of the mountains, and within 30 minutes of gorgeous lakes.  We also have 2 solid wrestling clubs with the best in our state within 45 minutes that compete nationally. You can teach/coach at a great school with a great wrestling tradition.  We have a NHSCA All Americans, and a NHSCA National Champ, to go along with our own year round wrestling room and locker room.  This year, we had 3 state finalist, and all 3 will be back next year. We have 35-40 HS wrestlers, 25-30 MS wrestlers, and 35-50 youth wrestlers.  We travel during the off season to Virginia Beach, Pigeon Forge, Tenn, and Boone to get some good competition and have fun as a team!  We have been fortunate to win 5 state titles and 1 runners-up championship in the past 10 years, and were the only unbeaten team in our state beating 3/4 champs from the other divisions.  We also have lots of D1 wrestling all around us: Appalachian State, Gardner Webb, UNC-CH, NC State, Duke, and lots of D2 schools.  If you are looking to re-locate, it's a great place to live and raise up a family!

    • He may have possibly said that to get the best out of him. Back when I was in school word got out I was going to transfer and Coach Story popped off and ask Coach Wilson in front of the team if Maryville was going to get a jock strap in return on this trade. That got back to me and I got fired up and stayed just to show them up. Now today Coach Story is one of my best friends.
    • Dylan's Dad, I'm glad you replied. I wanted to reply but wasnt willing to take the bait. There were 20 wrestlers on the team. I may be mistaken and correct me if I'm wrong but I believe 5 of the 20 attend McCallie right now and one will next year. At most, there are/were 6 kids on that team who attend McC. That leaves 14 other team members who have ZERO affiliation with McC (outside of maybe some friends) who represented our state to the best of their ability and wrestled their butts off that weekend. That weekend was a first for Tennessee and obviously a small step in the right direction for us as a state. Congratulations TEAM TN BLACK!
    • Danny Wilson is the only one that come's to mind but I don't know where he is at now.
    • I am pro coach all day long but there are some knucklehead hires for sure. 
    • This is a great question. The retirement seemed a little premature. I do not know the coach personally, but I hope he has found what he is looking for. He is a fine Christian man with a lot of principle and morals about him. I wish him nothing but the best. There are some players in the box for the next coach. This is going to be interesting to see how it plays out.
