All-Baltimore County wrestling teams

WRESTLER OF THE YEAR
Josh Asper
Hereford

The 160-pound junior remained on pace to join Aberdeen's Matt Slutzky (1992) and Owings Mills' Steve Kessler (1997) as Maryland's only four-time state champions. Asper defeated Southern of Garrett County's Justin Ratliff - last year's 2A-1A state champion at 152 - 6-2, to earn his third straight state crown and complete his first unbeaten season at 39-0 with 24 pins. The victory was the 50th straight dating back to February 2006 for Asper, who is Hereford's first three-time state titlist, and who won his second straight Baltimore County crown and his third straight regional title.
COACH OF THE YEAR
Pete Welch
McDonogh

The 13th-year coach led the Eagles to their second consecutive No. 1 ranking in The Sun from the start of the season to the end. Along the way, the Eagles won titles in the Mount Mat Madness Invitational, as well as their second consecutive crowns in the Maryland Interscholastic Athletic Association and private schools tournaments.

McDonogh went unbeaten against league rivals to earn its second straight MIAA dual meet title, its fourth overall, and posted a 17-3 mark on the season. Welch, who is 165-45 as a coach in dual meets, credits assistants Joe Bakewell, Rob Smoot, Adam Mayer, Alex Gardner and Kenny Taylor.
