Rankings as of Jan. 15th. Some County Champions are subjective since not all wrestlers met each other on the mat due to unique nature of the meet. It would have been especially interesting at 145 and 152 if Tarboro would have wrestled Northern Nash.

Christopher records 99th win for 2nd place in all-time wins at Tarboro.
