Basketball: Stone Bridge Girls, Potomac Falls Boys Both Improve to 12-1 with Key District Wins; Complete Skinny on All the Action Wednesday

Stone Bridge senior Kayleigh Guzek and sophomore Murielle Tiernan postgame after they led the Bulldogs into a 3-way tie for first in the Liberty District

(Jan. 13, 2011) - On a very chilly January Wednesday evening the district boys and girls basketball races heated up with key contests at the top and in the pack.

Both the Stone Bridge girls and Potomac Falls boys improved to area-best 12-1 on the season with the Lady Bulldogs blitzing Fairfax, 59-37, to forge a 3-way tie atop of the Liberty District and the Panthers holding off short-handed Briar Woods, 63-54, to remain one game ahead of Broad Run in the Dulles District.

"Our best performance by far all year," said Stone Bridge coach Chris Jones after the win where the Bulldogs shocked the Rebels -- previously unbeaten in district -- 21-2 first-half lead.

In other action, two teams on a roll continued to move up in the standings as the Loudoun County boys improved to 5-3 in the Dulles District with a 59-44 win over Woodgrove, moving the Raiders into a virtual 3-way tie for third place with Briar Woods and Park View; and the Briar Woods girls knocked off Potomac Falls, 54-46, to throw the Dulles District race into a nearly level playing field behind co-leaders Freedom and Loudoun County -- a 47-32 winner over Woodgrove Wednesday -- with four teams tied for third -- Briar Woods, Broad Run, Park View, Potomac Falls -- and the three remaining teams just a game back -- Dominion, Tuscarora and Woodgrove.

Girls Basketball
Stone Bridge 59, Fairfax 37
The Skinny: The Bulldogs executed their gameplan to perfection, jumping out to a 21-2 lead early in the second quarter and never threatened after that.

Super sophomore Murielle Tiernan scored 10 of her team-high 18 points in the fourth quarter as she was a force inside. It was a balanced Bulldog attack with five other players scoring seven or more points in the blowout -- senior Kayleigh Guzek (9 points), sophomore Nicole Prince (8), freshman Megan Della-Penna (8), senior Cori Prince (7) and senior Hannah Beth Whitaker (7).

Stone Bridge's active defense frustrated the Rebels 6-foot-1 junior Liz McNaughton as she went scoreless during the Bulldogs opening run and she had just four points at the half before finishing with a team-high 18. Fairfax's leading scorer, 6-foot-2 Meredith Mesaris, who came in averaging 20 points game was equally quited as she had just a single basket in each of the first three quarters and finished with 10.

The Bulldogs utilized their quickness to force turnovers and to break the Rebels the fullcourt press with ease with several halfcourt passes leading to easy layins. In the Bulldogs halfcourt set, Stone Bridge busted Fairfax's zone with two 3-pointers by Cori Prince in the second quarter and time after time made the extra pass for an easier look at the basket.

Fairfax came in 4-0 in district and the Stone Bridge win left both teams and Madison all 4-1 in the Liberty.

Alex Lapple (16 points), Brittany Batts (12 points) and Maggie Phillips (10 points) all scored in double digits for the Raiders who are 7-1 and 10-4.

Improving Woodgrove (2-5, 3-9) got 14 points and nine rebounds from Sarah Hardison, who was out the first part of the season as the Wolverines opened 1-5. Woodgrove is 2-4 with Hardison.

Briar Woods 54, Potomac Falls 46
The Skinny: Logan Ballard scored 19 points and Ashley O'Neill added 17 as the Falcons won for the fourth time in five games and for the third straight time in the Dulles District, a streak that started with an upset win over two-time state champion Freedom.

The Falcons are now .500 on the season at 4-4 in district and 7-7 overall after opening the year 1-4 and 3-6

Potomac Falls, meanwhile, has dropped three straight and four of five to fall to 4-4 and 5-8.

Panther coach Lynn Ewald reports that the Panthers were held t four points in the opening quarter and just five in the third. "(We) did well in the other two quarters, finishing the game strong with 22 points ... had to foul late to try and get back into and Ballard for BW did a great job knocking down her free throws. We were led by Kayla Guttridge with 15 and Patricia Mook with 14.

Liberty District Basketball: Coach of Year Jones Sees His Girls Advance; Player of the Year Brown, Bulldogs Hopes Dashed with 1.4 Seconds Left

Ashburn (Feb. 19, 2010) - Stone Bridge High School girls coach Chris Jones and junior Nik Brown picked up some nice honors this week with Jones being named the Liberty District Coach of the Year and Brown being honored as the boys Player of the Year. They came away from Thursday's district quarterfinal doubleheader at Stone Bridge with mixed emotions.

Jones saw his girls clinch a Northern Region bid after they overcame a slow start to defeat Fairfax, 53-45, but Brown and the Bulldogs saw their season come to a shocking end as McLean erased a 9-point fourth quarter deficit and then send the game into overtime when Gordon Rogo made three clutch free throws with 1.4 seconds left. The Highlanders then held SB without a field goal in the extra period to escape with the 70-67 upset.

For Stone Bridge, the hottest district team prior to the snowstorms including a win over district champ Langley, the season ends at 13-6 and a fifth straight year without a AAA regional appearance.

Girls Game: Stone Bridge 53, Fairfax 45
Bulldog freshman Murielle Tiernan had eight rebounds to go with her team-high 12 points in the win.

Sakai Williams, Maggie Schierling (defensively), and Kayleigh Guzek had strong all around games.

After trailing by seven early, SB picked up the tempo of the game and scored 25 second quarter points by forcing a number of turnovers.

Both teams tightened the defense in the third quarter. In the final quarter, after Fairfax closed the margin to four, Williams hit a big 3-pointer to change the momentum back to Stone Bridge's favor.

The Bulldogs then spread the court for the final two minutes and made 9 of 12 free throws late in the game to seal the win.

Girls Basketball - Liberty Quarterfinal
Stone Bridge 4 25 6 18 - 53
Fairfax 9 14 8 14 - 45
Halftime: Stone Bridge 29, Fairfax 23


Stone Bridge:
M. Tiernan 12, S. Williams 11, Scierling 7, Whitaker 6, Guzek 6, Sleece , C. Prince 4, Gouveia 2 Three pointers: Williams 2, Sleece 1 Foul line:  14 of 22


Fairfax:
Burford 19, McNaughton 7, Patterson 7, B. Gladney 7, Freeman 2, A, Gladney 2, Sharpe 1 Three pointers:  Burford 1 Foul Line:  16 of 23

Boys game: McLean 70, Stone Bridge 67 (OT)
It was a fairly close game throughout with SB up 27-25 at halftime. McLean was very effective with their "triangle" stall game.

In the mid-fourth quarter, SB pushed the lead to nine points and forced McLean to get out of their zone.

The Bulldogs, however, did not execute very well down the stretch and let McLean tie the game up with 1.4 seconds left on three foul shots by Gordon Rogo after he was fouled behind the 3-point arc. Even though Rogo was just 2 of 7 from the line during the rest of the game, he calmly made all three, including the final shot to tie the game after SB had called time out to ice him.

Rogo's clutch shooting left it tied 61-61 heading into OT.

In overtime, all of SB points came from the foul line.

Swim: Madison Sweeps Shortened Liberty District Meet, Stone Bridge Struggles

(Feb. 1, 2010) - The AAA Liberty District swim meet was cut short due to the snowstorm over the weekend so that the prelim times swam on Friday night stood as final times. Madison boys and girls swept the meet with Langley runner-up in the girls and Fairfax on the boys side.

Stone Bridge, which always has trouble scoring in postseason meets because the Bulldogs are not allowed by Loudoun to field a dive team, struggled with a seventh place finish on the girls side and 8th for the boys.

A bright spot for SB was the girls 200 free relay which took third with a regional cut time of 1:42.92. Apple Pollock, Haley Springman, Paige Haynes and Dani DeGooyer teamed in that event.
