The Skinny: The Broad Run Spartans Baseball team ran its record to 5-0 on the season (5-0 in the Dulles District) with a 17-1 victory over the Park View Patriots in Ashburn on Friday night.

On the mound for the Spartans, senior Taylor Clarke got the start and improved his record to 2-0 on the season. In three innings of work Clarke struck out 9 Patriot batters, allowed 2 hits, issued 2 walks, and allowed 1 earned run. Senior Brandon Craft struck out 5 of the 6 batters he faced in two innings of work to close the game out for the Spartans on the mound.

Herndon 8, Loudoun Valley 6
Dominion at Tuscarora PPD (moved to 4.14)
Fairfax 1, Stone Bridge 0
The Skinny: The hot-hitting Stone Bridge Bulldogs finally met it's match on Friday night at Fairfax High School. Joseph Vanderplas, a University of Tennessee signee, tamed the Bulldogs attack allowing just three hits while fanning thirteen.

Stone Bridge entered the game averaging over 10 runs a game but the senior lefthander used a variety of pitches and change of speeds to keep the Bulldogs off balance all night. Stone Bridge junior Tyler Mocabee nearly matched Vanderplas allowing just three hits while pitching a complete game himself. Mocabee struck out seven Rebel hitters and walked only one. It was that one walk that would prove to be the difference in the game. The walk was issued to the first batter in the bottom of the second inning. A sacrifce bunt moved the runner into scoring position then a line drive to left field by who else, Vanderplas plated the only run of the game. Four Rebel errors allowed the Bulldogs to threaten a couple of times but each time Vanderplas was able to pitch out of trouble. The most serious Bulldog threat came in the fourth inning when the Bulldogs had runners on second and third with no outs but could not score.

Tyler Lighton, JJ White and Ryan Johnston had the three hits for Stone Bridge. Stone Bridge is back in action next Tuesday at Langley. Game time is 6:30.

Briar Woods 25, Freedom 2 (5)
The Skinny: Briar Woods used a 14-run second inning and a 20-hit attack to post a 25-2 win over Freedom Friday night in Ashburn.

The Falcons, who improved to 5-1 overall and 3-1 in the Dulles District, set school records for most runs in game, margin of victory and runs batted in (21). The 20 hits are the second-most in program history, behind the 25 hits against Falls Church during the 2008 season.

Briar Woods got hits from 12 different players, including four from junior Macy Jones, who had a pair of singles and a pair of doubles, drove in four runs and scored a school-record five times. Jones also tossed three scoreless innings, recording all nine outs via strikeout.

Senior Kristina Karagiorgis allowed two runs on two hits over the final two innings. She struck out three. She also went 3-for-4 with four runs batted in and three runs scored.

The Falcons jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first when freshman Jordan Counts and Jones both singled and scored on a single by Karagiorgis.

Briar Woods then blew the game open in the second, sending 20 hitters to the plate in a 14-run outburst. Senior Alex Fierszt sparked the Falcons with a two-run triple, and Counts and freshman Casey Forbes followed with RBI-singles. Freshman Caroline Fowler added a two-run single, while senior Kasey Ball roped a run-scoring double.

The Falcons increased their lead to 20-0 with four more runs in the third. Sophomore Emily Ball started the inning with a single, and Counts reached on an error. A wild pitch moved both runners up, and Jones followed with a single to plate both runners. Karagiorgis and Kasey Ball added run-scoring singles as well.

Briar Woods capped its scoring with five runs in the fourth. The Falcons loaded the bases on a walk by freshman Carrie Keevey, a single by freshman Kacie Kondrotis and a walk by freshman Caylee Goad. Jones then ripped a two-run double, and Karagiorgis followed with a sacrifice fly. Senior Jillian Olson added an RBI-double, and senior Tracey Carney hit an RBI-single to end the scoring.

The Falcons return to action Monday when they visit Broad Run in a key Dulles District contest at 6 p.m.

Boys Soccer
Stone Bridge 3, Madison 0 (OT)
The Skinny: The Stone Bridge boys soccer team traveled James Madison Friday night in a key Liberty District game and came away with a 3-0 in overtime win. The hard fought contest ended tied 0-0. Junior Michael Morningstar scored in the first OT period after collecting a pass from senior Pete Whelpley and driving the ball over the Madison goalkeeper and into the net. A minute later Michael Mornngstar earned a penalty kick being taken down on a through ball in the box. Whelpley converted the PK putting the Bulldogs up 2-0. Sophomore Aman Mangalmurti scored the final goal off an assist by junior Auguste Spencer. Junior keeper Abe Yoslov (10 saves) along with defenders Luke Scheirling, Tommy Dunne, Ben Jamison, and Brad Wood kept the Warhawks off the scoreboard for the Bulldogs 3rd straight shutout. The team is now 3-1-2 on the season and 2-1 in the Liberty District. The next game is an away match against non-district Concorde opponent Robinson on Tuesday, April 5th at 7:30.

Broad Run 3, Park View 1
The Skinny: The Spartans have not lost a Dulles District contest since April 2009 and they take over first place after beating rival PV in a battle of early season unbeatens. BR took a 1-0 lead at the half after Will Gooch scored off a Tim Chapman assist with just 20 seconds left in the half. BR made it 2-0 in the 51st minute when Ryan Deutsch cleaned up a Kevin Reitzel free kick from 20 yards out. Park View cut the lead to 2-1 with Dulles District MVP from a year ago, Jose Miguel Herrea sprung loose off a Geo Hernandez pass. But the Patriot good mood off that  goal in the 59th minute was short-lived as less than a minute later, Chapman went down the left wing and played a ball across that was finished by Reitzel. BR keeper Paul Hegedus had several nice saves in the closing minutes to keep BR's final margin at 3-1.
Loudoun County 2, Potomac Falls 2

Briar Woods 2,  Freedom 1
The Skinny:
Falcons report: Freedom hosted rival Briar Woods on a very cold April Fools night. The action heated up quickly with the Falcons pressuring the Eagle’s defense relentlessly early in the first half. Somehow the ball strayed just wide of the posts on no fewer than 6 clean shots. Finally on a hard fought battle between veteran midfielders, Megan Benitez won the ball and was able to toe it wide to Lina Granados at center field. Granados carried the ball through multiple Eagle defenders into the box before tapping it past a diving Eagle keeper, 15 yards out, for a brilliant open net finish.

The Falcons continued to dominate the midfield and the Falcon defenders shut down every early opportunity by Freedom. Suddenly though Freedom’s strong lineup strung a few passes together and created a seam to Taylor Gaunt who found the net to tie it up early in the second half. The tie seemed to raise desire on both sides of the field as play got more fast and more furious. Two yellow cards would be handed out before Lina Granados, on a text book tap and run, would gain advantage on the last Eagle defender only to be taken down just inside the box. With a PK awarded, and the home stands first raucous then silent, the Amazing Lina would convert the PK confidently past the, frozen to the line, Eagle keeper.

Many runs would come as the pride of Freedom rose up for the Lady Eagles, but each run would end with the Falcon pride shutting down the best Freedom could muster. The game would end at 2 -1 with Freedom knocking hard on the strong, bend but don’t break, Falcon defense. Cloe Barnes came up huge, making it look easy with 10 saves.

Mark your calendars for May 6th because Briar Woods “welcomes” Freedom into their house for a sure to be stellar round two!
