Gar-Field football wins first playoff game since 2007

It was a field storm 19 years in the making. Woodbridge lined up for a 28-yard field goal attempt from the left hash with a second to go in Friday’s Class 6 Region B quarterfinal against Gar-Field. If it went through, the Vikings would force overtime to complete a stunning rally from a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit. If not, the Red Wolves would walk away with a generational triumph in an upset on their hated, ancient rivals’ own turf. The horn sounded and the kick sailed wide left simultaneously, a signal for the ensuing wave of white-and-red delirium to charge onto A.T. Howard Field. Fifth-seeded Gar-Field secured its first playoff victory since 2007 with a 17-14 win at No. 4 Woodbridge to eliminate last year’s regional runner-up, and will travel to top-seeded Colonial Forge Nov. 20 for a spot in the regional final. At 9-2, the Red Wolves have won their most games in a season since they also went 9-2 in 2001. Friday's high school football playoff scores IN PHOTOS: Gar-Field-Woodbridge football Battlefield shuts out Stafford This was also the first time Gar-Field and Woodbridge had faced each other in the postseason since 2007.
