The Briar Woods Falcons Varsity Football team returned home from the AA Division 4 Virginia championship trophy – the teams second state title in two years, marking the beginning of Ashburn's newest football dynasty. The Falcons knocked of the Christiansburg Blue Demons 28-26 with the defense stopping a two-point conversion late in the game that would tied it up. Viva Loudoun's Dan Sousa reported on the game from Lynchburg and provides full coverage here. In years past, Stone Bridge and Broad Run have grabbed all the glory with repeat trips to the state final, but the Bulldogs were in a rebuilding phase this year – and still performed very well – while the Spartans fell short in their first, and very competent, season of AAA football. …

Stone Bridge places second at meet and eight qualify for the regionals.
Several Stone Bridge wrestlers performed well enough this weekend to move on to the regional competition after the Bulldogs scored second place behind Langley at Saturday’s Liberty District championship meet in McLean. Langley’s impressive roster of finalists put the overall title out of reach, but the remaining teams fought for second place. Freshman Garrett Maged’s win at 112 pounds clinched that spot for Stone Bridge, despite of the fact that he was the only one of four Bulldog finalists to win his weight class. His dramatic 8-6 overtime win over Marshall’s James Cusack gave Stone Bridge 118.5 points, putting the team ahead of Marshall, which finished third at 114.5. The Warhawks took third even though they earned just three individual …

The Briar Woods Falcons were in unfamiliar territory trailing the undefeated Harrisonburg 14-0 early in the first quarter during Saturday's Division 4 state championship. The team was off to a slow start on offense and its typically reliable defense could not stop Harrisonburg's rushing attack. The early deficit could have been disastrous for the young football program, but instead of conceding defeat, Coach Charlie Pierce and his Falcons team remained poised en route to the schools first state title. Harrisonburg (13-1) scored early thanks to its talented running back Michael Holmes and an early interception. Falcon Quarterback Trace McSorley threw the interception to Blue Streaks linebacker Ryan Fletcher, setting up a Holmes touchdown …
