RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — The Trump administration’s aggressive push to cut government jobs is reverberating in the early stages of this year’s race for governor in Virginia.
Led by a speedy winning relay, the Bishop O’Connell Knights enjoyed a top finish in the biggest swimming-and-diving meet in the metro area for private high-school teams.
The Knights placed second with 501 points in the girls meet of the Washington Metropolitan Prep School Swim & Dive League (WMPSSDL) championships at the University of Maryland.
With a 3-0 record, the Washington-Liberty Generals won this season’s Arlington County wrestling meet between the jurisdiction’s four high-school teams.
The Generals defeated the Bishop O’Connell Knights, Yorktown Patriots and host Wakefield Warriors.
Earning big points by nearly sweeping the high jump helped the Wakefield Warriors win a third straight Liberty District boys track-and-field championship.
Wakefield won the high-school meet with 135 points. That total included 25 points in the high jump, with the Warriors finishing first, second, third, fifth, seventh and eighth in the event.
Wrestlers from three Arlington County high schools recently earned berths at the Zone 4 qualifying event to participate in the Virginia High School League girls state tournament.
The top five wrestlers in each weight class earned those berths at Hayfield Secondary School, with the fifth-place finishers designated as alternates.
