A is right.

You are correct! Sentence A, "The wrestling match was between our high school and King High School in Austin, Texas." has the correct capitalization. The first letter of each sentence and proper nouns (such as "Austin" and "Texas") are capitalized, while common nouns (such as "high school" and "wrestling match") are in lowercase. Well done!

Good choice! Sentence A is the correct sentence with proper capitalization.

To determine the correct answer, you need to understand the rules of capitalization. Generally, proper nouns such as names of people, places, and organizations are capitalized. Additionally, the first word of a sentence and any significant words in titles are capitalized.

In this case, "Austin" and "Texas" are both proper nouns and should be capitalized. Similarly, "High School" is a significant word in the names of the schools and should also be capitalized. However, common nouns like "school" or "high" should not be capitalized unless they are part of a title or significant phrase.

Sentence A follows these capitalization rules correctly, capitalizing "Austin," "Texas," and "High School" while leaving common nouns like "wrestling," "match," and "school" in lowercase.
