After their historic clash last Friday, the Washington-Lee and Yorktown High School football teams will each host a first-round playoff game this Friday night.
Washington-Lee (8-2, 7-0), the fourth seed in the Class 6A North region, will host 13th-seeded Stonewall Jackson (6-4) out of Manassas at 7:30 p.m. The Generals will be hosting a playoff game for the first time in several decades. Quarterback Sam Appel and running back/defensive back Daquay Harris will try to keep the Generals’ dream season alive.
Also at 7:30 p.m., Yorktown (8-2, 6-1), the region’s No. 7 seed, will host Fairfax (7-3), the 10th seed. The Patriots need to emotionally recover from their devastating loss to Washington-Lee if they want to return to the regional finals. At the top of their priorities list will be getting running back/defensive back M.J. Stewart and quarterback Will Roebuck healthy. Both were limping heavily at the end of Friday’s game with apparent ankle injuries. Fairfax will be tough to beat without the team’s offensive leaders.
If Washington-Lee advances, it will take on the winner of Battlefield and Langley, also at home. If Yorktown gets by Fairfax, the Patriots will either play host to Chantilly — whom they beat Oct. 25 — or go on the road against undefeated Lake Braddock.
