Stone Bridge Girls Fall to Chantilly in Soccer Playoff

The Stone Bridge girls varsity soccer team was stunned by the second-half surge from the Chantilly Chargers Friday night in a game that was stopped by lightning with 16:11 left on the clock.

The Bulldogs appeared to be the dominant team through much of the first half, leaving the Charger goalie looking dejected after Erin Leonard scored and leading 1-0 at the half. But in the second half, Chantilly kept the ball down near the Stone Bridge goal, finding the back of the net three times.

As lightning set in, a delay was called. As the storm persisted, the playoff match could not resume and the Chargers were declared the winner. Chantilly now moves on to the regional semifinals June 1.

More playoff updates to come.
