Baseball: Potomac Falls Rolls Into Region II Finals Behind Rogers, Clinches Third Straight State Bid

Special to VivaLoudoun

Orange (June 3, 2011) - The Potomac Falls High School baseball team went into Orange on Thursday to face a William Monroe team that was 20-1 and the Panthers punched their ticket to the Region II Championship game and a spot in the AA state quarterfinals. Behind the over powering pitching of Jackson Rogers and a 5-run third inning the Panthers sealed a return trip to the state playoffs for a third consecutive year.

Rogers dominated on the mound racking up 10 strikeouts and only giving up 3 hits as he improved his record to 10-0 and is the current All-Met strikeout leader . The Panthers erupted for five runs in the third inning and that was all the support Rogers needed.
