Woodbridge girls volleyball back in states for first time since 1998

Woodbridge High School's girls volleyball team is back in the state tournament for the first time since 1998. On Friday, the Vikings (20-4) advanced to the Class 6 state quarterfinals after defeating Cardinal District opponent Forest Park 3-0 in the Region 6B semifinals. The final scores were 25-16, 25-15 and 25-12. In addition to advancing to states, the Vikings will also move on to the region final, which is Nov. 10. Woodbridge will play at Colonial Forge at 6 p.m. On Friday, Woodbridge's Elliot Dorgan had 14 kills and six aces. Jayne Clark had 10 kills, Maria Coronel and Maddie Webster each had five kills and Braylin Coacher had 30 assists and three kills. The Vikings have put themselves in this position led by first-year head coach Casey Cornell. The Cardinal District coach of the year led Woodbridge to an 11-1 district regular-season record, where it tied for first with perennial district champ Colgan and along the way ended the Sharks' 92-match district winning streak. Woodbridge girls volleyball breaks Colgan's streak as the district tournament's top seed Cornell came to Woodbridge from Courtland High School in Spotsylvania County, where she led the program for eight seasons.

Woodbridge holds off Gar-Field to win third straight district title and 19th straight district game

It’s doubtful that many of the 61 previous regular-season matchups between Woodbridge and Gar-Field could have matched the sloppiness of Friday’s mistake-plagued contest. In the end, though, the Vikings’ defense and special teams made just enough plays to beat the Red Wolves 9-7 on their home field. Senior defensive lineman Alhaji Kamara returned a botched punt attempt 34 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter and a bad snap on another Red Wolves’ punt attempt led to a safety in Gar-Field’s next possession, giving all the points the Vikings needed to take a one-game edge in the heated rivalry series and claim the Herb Saunders Trophy. With the victory, Woodbridge won its third straight Cardinal District crown and 19th straight district game, earning the fourth seed in the Class 6, Region B playoffs in the process. The Vikings (9-1, 6-0) will play the Red Wolves (8-2, 5-1) for the second straight week next Friday in the first round of regionals. Here are the Class 6, Region B first-round football pairings Northern Virginia high school football scores for Nov. 6 “I didn’t think they were going to score on us, and they didn’t,” Woodbridge coach Jimmy Longerbeam said. “We’re really

Playoff-bound Gainesville beats Patriot for the first time

Even after the game, Tre Cage still put his team in the right position. After Gainesville defeated host Patriot Friday 21-14, the Cardinals' second-year coach directed his players to convene to the right of the goal post so everyone taking pictures could clearly include the scoreboard in the background. That was shift was significant. For the first time since it began playing a varsity football schedule in 2022, Gainesville beat the Pioneers. Coming into the game, Patriot had won all five matchups. So, before the scoreboard went blank, the players and coaches hustled toward the end zone to make sure they got the score frozen in time for posterity. The players initially set up camp in front of the goal post, but the crossbar blocked out the scoreboard. Recognizing the hold-up, Cage took matters into his own hands by having everyone congregate at an angle to capture the historic moment. It was a milestone worth savoring along with the fact that the Cardinals are still playing, something Cage reminded them off by telling them to 'Be back Monday." They had another week of practice as another game awaited. After a one-year hiatus, Gainesville is back in the playoffs. A win
