Meridian Field Hockey, Girls Volleyball Pick Up Big Wins

It’s halfway through October, meaning that fall sports at Meridian High School are beginning to wrap up their regular seasons with playoffs right around the corner. One team already deep into its postseason run is the golf squad, which competes in the State Finals on Tuesday and results will be made available as soon as possible. Elsewhere, though, here’s a brief recap of how the various Mustang programs fared this past week.

Field hockey took its second loss of the season by falling 3-0 at Fauquier on Tuesday, but quickly bounced back by trampling Brentsville at home on Thursday in a 5-0 Senior Night shutout. This week will be the final one of regular-season play for the girls, who wrap up by hosting Annandale Today. They should be able to earn a high seed and at least a few home games in the regional playoffs.

The football team took a rough loss at Kettle Run on Friday, falling in a 47-7 romp to drop to 1-5 on the year. It’s a disappointing result after the boys had competed hard in several other close defeats throughout the season, but on the plus side, there’s still a few more opportunities to right the ship. This week they’ll stay on the road to play Manassas Park on Friday, looking to pick up their second win of 2024.

Boys’ volleyball stayed hot by beating West Potomac in five sets on the road last Wednesday, earning their sixth consecutive win after starting the season 0-7.

Girls Volleyball: won at Fauquier last Tuesday.

Cheer: competed at Liberty-Bealeton last Wednesday, they are back in action this week at Brentsville on Saturday.
