After dropping to (Oakton 14, Chantilly 12) Herndon, 8-7, on May 2nd, Bulldogs head coach Dean Ferington had a meeting with his BOYS LACROSSE Chantilly High School team. (Chantilly 8, Oakton 6) “It’s not like we were playing bad, we just weren’t getting over the hump,” said BASEBALL Ferington. The Bulldogs’ skipper put the fate Lake Braddock Secondary School (Lake Braddock 9, Chantilly 6) of their season squarely his young team’s shoulders. SOFTBALL “I haven’t changed coaching in 20 years.

The Bulldogs lift up their Northern Region tournament trophy.

AGAINST HERNDON, the Bulldog rook- ies came up huge. Ferington utilized a trio of freshmen pitchers – Alex Tenney, Jenni- fer Goodman and Jackie Martinez to slow the Herndon offense that scored 19 runs in the first three Northern Region tournament games. The trio combined to hold the Hor- nets scoreless through the game’s first six innings, scattering 11 hits in the game. Freshman Frankie Martinez delivered the key hit for the Bulldogs in the third inning off of Herndon starting pitcher Katie Rynex, looping a two-out, two-RBI single to right field, scoring freshmen Jackie Martinez and Alex Bohrer. “I knew that it was a strong [freshmen] class and if we could gel at the right time, which we did… you can’t ask for anything more from them,” said Ferington.

NOTE: On Tuesday night, the Bulldogs ended their season with a 7-4 loss to Woodside in the Virginia AAA quarterfinals. After a nearly two hour rain delay at Westfield High School, the Bulldogs gave up five runs to the Wolverines in the final two innings. The Bulldogs celebrate after beating Herndon, 5-3, in the Northern Region Tournament finals.
