LOUDOUN COUNTY, VA - Subsequent to the meeting Dulles District Athletic Directors had on Tuesday, the following was decided, and approved by respective school principals:
Bad weather has forced the cancellation of the following Saturday events:
District Swim
District Gymnastics
District Forensics
Region Academic
The following are the updates of the status of scheduled events:
GYMNASTICS: Because of Saturday's district meet cancellation, the State Qualifier Meet will be held Monday, February 15 at Potomac Falls HS. This will now be a combination District Championship/State Qualifier Meet. Times and Details TBA. A new format will be announced shortly.
SWIMMING: Ongoing coordination with Claude Moore Recreation Center continues. The district championship meet will hopefully take place Monday, February 15, at Claude Moore. If we are able to hold a district meet Monday, the Dulles District will not compete in Monday's Region II Meet. If facility arrangements cannot be made with Claude Moore, only region qualifiers will compete in the Region Championship scheduled for Monday at the Warrenton Aquatic Center. Region Warm-ups would begin at 9:00am and competition begins at 11:00am. Times for a district meet are TBA pending facility availability. A definite decision regarding swimming should be available by Thursday, February 11.
WRESTLING: Region Championship at James Wood HS is now TBA. Details will be made available as soon as a decision is made.
FORENSICS: District Championship is now scheduled for next Saturday, February 20 at Potomac Falls HS. Details and times TBA.
ACADEMIC: (Broad Run and Park View only) Region competition at Charlottesville HS will not take place this Saturday, February 13. Rescheduled date is TBA.
BASKETBALL: The regular season is complete and games will not be made up. The girls basketball one game playoff between Freedom and Loudoun County will be played Monday, February 15 at Park View HS at 2pm.
All freshmen and junior varsity seasons are complete. This was due to the calendar and the officials unable to cover them due to so many schools in Virginia needing to make up and start tournaments. This is unfortunate, but we felt we must move forward with the Varsity Tournaments so that all schools would be included instead of reducing the tourney to 4 teams.
Boys and girls District tournaments will begin next week and teams will be seeded according to records to date. The 1st round of the Dulles District Basketball tournament will be played Wednesday, February 17 at high seeds (Boys sites--#2 seed Broad Run, #3 seed Park View, #4 seed Briar Woods. Girls sites--#2 seed loser of Freedom/Loudoun County game, #3 seed Potomac Falls, #4 seed Broad Run).
The semifinals and finals will be played as scheduled, 2/18-2/20, at Freedom HS. Girls Semis on 2/18, Boys Semis on 2/19, and Finals on 2/20 (girls at 6pm and boys at 8pm)
The boys and girls All-District Team Meeting will be held Monday, February 15 at 4:30pm at Park View HS.
SPRING SPORTS: Will start as scheduled on Monday, February 22. All physicals and appropriate paperwork needs to be turned into your respective athletic office.
