Olson helped the Falcons to a Dulles District tournament title her sophomore season and a perfect run through the district last year as the Falcons took both the tournament and regular season titles. Briar Woods finished with a school-record 21-4 mark as they were the Region II runner-up before their season ended in the state quarterfinals at Powhatan.

Olson was named second-team all-Dulles District.

Mary Washington is 12-18 this season, including 4-2 in the Capital Athletic Conference. Stone Bridge grad, junior Amanda Adams is the starting centerfielder for the Eagles.

Cheers Sports and VivaLoudoun Athletes of the Month for February 2011

Photo shoot held at Lifetime Fitness in Ashburn.

Ashburn (Mar. 24, 2011) - Cheers Sports and VivaLoudoun.com released today their Athletes of the Month selections for February 2011. The February 2011 honorees -- the final selections for the winter sports season -- met at Lifetime Fitness in Ashburn on Feb. 12 for a photo shoot.

Chris Anderson was the photographer this month and the shoot was coordinated by Kristin Stubbs.

Each month VivaLoudoun editor Dan Sousa selects the top athletes from across Loudoun's 12 public high schools for the Cheers Sports Athletes of the Month program. For February 2011, a total of 45 athletes were selected across the six winter sports (boys basketball, girls basketball, gymnastics, wrestling, boys swim, girls swim) with special attention paid to those that advanced in state competition in February and early March.

"With Potomac Falls boys basketball bringing home another state title and the Loudoun County girls just missing a title, it was a great month of sports action in Loudoun," said Sousa.

Check out all the photos from our photo shoot this month at Cheers Sports here!
