From AHS: With a total of 27 shots on goal, Asheboro maintained possession for most of the game but the keeper for the Timberwolves had a very solid night in goal.
A corner kick from Itzel Macias led to Bridgett Diaz Lopez finding the back of the net. The second Blue Comet goal came after a through ball played up by Abby Becker found the foot of Jaira Arellano who dribbled through defenders to place a shot to the back corner. Carlisle Dozier had a relatively calm night with only 2 saves in goal.
Bridgett Diaz Lopez earned player of the game honors for taking command of the right side tonight with Penny Smith and Abby Becker getting runner up.

April 12, 2024 – ASHEBORO COACHING ANNOUNCEMENT
Asheboro High School has announced that Cliff Thompson will take over the Blue Comets wrestling program:
Cliff Thompson is a native of Randolph County and a graduate of Randleman High School, where he wrestled all four years, placing 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in the state over the course of his high school career.
From Randleman, Cliff moved on to wrestle all four years of college at Upper Iowa University. While competing for the Peacocks, Thompson was a 3X All American, National runner-up, and UIU Hall of Fame inductee, likely due in part to setting the all-time win record while he was there.
Currently, Coach Thompson is an assistant coach at Thomasville High, where the team has gone from last in the conference to back-to-back-to-back conference champs and a perennial post season final four team, since his arrival.
Additionally, Thompson owns and operates the wrestling club Eyes on The Prize, here in Randolph County. From humble beginnings, the club has grown to a successful fixture in the wrestling community, sending student athletes to the NCHSAA State Championships every year, including multiple placers, four state championships, and a National All American.
Coach Thompson aims to bring the philosophy behind his club mission statement to Asheboro High School, which promotes the importance of academics, accountability, hard work, personal health, sportsmanship, and goal setting.
