(May 25, 2013) - J.B. Bukauskas left no doubt as to why he was named this week as the AAA Northern Region Pitcher of the Year as a sophomore as the Bulldog threw a 2-hitter Friday night to lead Stone Bridge High School to a 1-0 win at Yorktown in the first round of the Northern Region tournament. Senior Matt Hough had the game's lone RBI.
Stone Bridge faces Oakton at 1 p.m. Monday at Lake Braddock High School in the regional quarterfinals.

Football: Stone Bridge Storms Back for 69-50 Win Over Yorktown to Claim 8th Regional Title

Ashburn (Nov. 24, 2012) - Stone Bridge High School football coach Mickey Thompson was asked over and over again after Friday's Northern Region Division 5 title game if he was worried his Bulldogs had fallen too far behind Yorktown in the match-up of unbeaten teams.
When it was 16-7 Yorktown after the second Stone Bridge first half turnover? Nope
When it was 23-7 Yorktown after the third Stone Bridge first half turnover? Nope
Surely, when it was 29-7 Yorktown with 9:30 still to play in the first half and Stone Bridge having committed four turnovers!?!
Ah, again, Nope.
Thompson did wonder when his team was going to start showing their true colors in front of the sunshine-lit late November crowd.
"I wondered how many more times could we fumble ... it was a mess," said Thompson, who wasn't worried because he knew exactly how many points his team, which dominated both lines of the scrimmage, could put up on the Patriots.
"If they put up 60, we are going to lose," said Thompson.
And as usual, as the saying in Ashburn goes, "Mickey knows football" and the Bulldogs didn't just snap out of their slumber but went on a roll for the ages, scoring 55 unanswered points including a 33-point Arena-football like third quarter blitz to beat Yorktown, 69-50.
Stone Bridge (13-0), which has now won six Northern Region titles since 2005 and eight regional titles since 2002, will travel to Hanover (9-3) on Saturday, Dec. 1 in the Division 5 state semifinals. Lake Taylor, which destroyed 4-time defending state champion Phoebus, 44-0, is at North Stafford in the other semifinal.
