One Win from States: A Dozen Loudoun Teams Play in Regional Semifinals on Wednesday

(June 1, 2010) - If you are a spring athlete then reaching the month of June and still playing is special as most teams have finished for the season. Now 12 area teams will play on Wednesday with a win not only advancing them to regional finals but clinching state tournament bids.

Broad Run has three teams alive with baseball, boys and girls soccer playing Wednesday. Loudoun Valley (softball, girls soccer), Potomac Falls (baseball, boys soccer) and Stone Bridge (boys and girl soccer) each have two teams and Briar Woods softball, Loudoun County girls soccer and Park View softball are also still playing.

Thus far, Loudoun has qualified three teams for state tournament play -- all from Loudoun Valley as the Vikings boys tennis and boys and girls lacrosse teams have all advanced. The Vikings boys tennis play Thomas Jefferson today in a AAA state quarterfinal and the Vikings girls lacrosse hosts Madison Friday in a VHSL state quarterfinal and the Vikings boys lacrosse travels Saturday to Western Albemarle for a state quarterfinal.
