Consistency won out for Deep Run‘s girls and Douglas Freeman‘s guys en route to the Colonial District track and field championship.
Out of 15 events, the Wildcats scored in 14, usually in the top four. Out of 15 events, the Rebels scored in 13, again usually in championship or medal fashion.
Deep Run took the crown scoring 151.5 points, 31.5 more than second place Maggie Walker.
Briana Hudson (high jump), Joanna Hassell (55-meter dash), the 800-meter relay team (Hudson, Hassell, Julia Drapac, Marlena Daly) and the 1,600 relay team (Katie Fuson, Jay’vonne Bowman, Ashley Orr, Caroline Turner) were Deep Run’s only champions.
But in the other events, Deep Run wasn’t far behind the individual champ as Hudson, Orr, Bowman and Erica and Courtney Dobbs ate up crucial points.
That helped fight off terrific individual performances from Maggie Walker’s Susannah Piersol, the runner of the year, and J.R. Tucker‘s Jasia Richardson, the field event performer of the year.
Piersol took the 1,600 and 3,200 runs and ran a great leg in Maggie Walker’s 3,200 relay team that broke their own record of a year ago, the only female record broken this season.
Richardson’s Tiger team finished fifth, but Richardson took home the long and triple jumps.
“I came in a litle nervous because my competition is also my really good friends,” Richardson said. “But I came out on top. I’m good. I’m happy.”
Freeman’s Quash earned runner of the year honors behind his 300 and 55 hurdles crowns, and a terrific anchor leg of the 1,600 relay champs.
The Rebels also received a title performance from Ulrick Smith (500) and several second-place finishes.
Chris Kourlesis of Tucker was the field event performer of the meet with his long and triple jump titles, equaling his female counterpart, Richardson.

The first day of the Capital and Colonial District track and field championships finished with no huge surprises.
Deep Run holds an 11.5 point lead over Douglas Freeman behind the efforts of Briana Hudson (high jump champ, 5-2) and four Wildcats finishing from second to fifth in the long jump.
Maggie Walker GS’ 3,200-meter relay girls knocked down its own previous district record with a time of 10:00.87, almost two seconds faster than last season’s mark.
On the boys side in the Colonial, Patrick Henry holds a nine-point margin over Deep Run as Theo Duncan took the shot put crown, with Adrian Cavanagh (third) not too far behind.
Atlee leads both Capital meets. The girls by a significant margin, the boys by only one point over defending champion Highland Springs, who got 10 points from long jump champion Marcus Burley.
Pole vault champion Emma Dejarnette (11-6) and second place Rachael Hawks (10-6) paced the girls effort for the Raiders.

The Hanover Hawks were too much for Patrick Henry beating the Patriots 57-31 in Wednesday night’s game.
After a subpar first half, the Hawks came out in the second half pressing Patrick Henry resulting in multiple turnovers and fastbreak layups.
Hanover’s Courtney Long (13 points) and Kim Browning (15 points, seven rebounds, five steals) led the charge with help from multiple players coming off the bench. Chelsea Coward also had 13 points.
Taylor Huber led Patriots with 13 points.

Saturday’s Position Specifics Offensive Clinic turned out 60 more athletes and spirited instruction from top-notch football players and coaches.
Quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers and offensive linemen enjoyed 2-1/2 hours of instruction.
For some it was their second time at a PS clinic. The defensive clinic kicked the year off last week at U-Turn Sports Performance Academy.
“It helps me a lot,” said Omar White, a rising senior at Henrico who works in the trenches on both sides of the ball. “It gives me a big jump to better myself for the next year. It’s keeping me focused in the offseason.”
Some of the same counselors were present again, of course that includes PS founders Chad Blackstock and Kevin Lewis.
Lewis’ brother Jonathan, an NFL defensive lineman with the Seattle Seahawks, made another appearance.
As did Tennessee Titans offensive lineman Jason Murphy, which was certainly a treat for the Central Region’s young lineman.
Former Virginia State All-American Damon “Redd” Thompson tutored the wide receivers, and Highland Springs coach Eddie Handsome and former Virginia Tech star Mike Crawford handled the running backs.
“It’s a good group of guys out here working together,” Atlee’s Tyler White said. “Everybody seems to get along pretty well. A lot of talent out here as well. I’ve seen some of the best group of guys.”

The Central Region had yet another productive Signing Day Wednesday, highlighted by Hermitage and Highland Springs having six of their football players sign scholarships.
The Panthers had Ju-Ju Clayton (Virginia Tech), Jamel Davis (Coastal Carolina), Terrell Lynch (VMI), Justin Carr (Towson), Justin White (Shepherd, W.Va) and Dominique Booker (Towson).
The Springers boasted Antoine Hopkins (Va. Tech), Rod Wheeler (Virginia), Harry Lee Daniel (Richmond), Marcus Burley (Delaware), Matthew Hurdle (Kent State) and J.J. Spates (Chowan).
Many other schools have football stars signed and delivered.
Twin brothers Cameron and Ryan Jude of Manchester are headed to Michigan State and Kent State, respectively. Brandon Harrington (Virginia State) and Ryan Bouldin (Chowan) also made it official for the Lancers.
Meadowbrook had three players ink their names in Michael Williams (Youngstown State), Bryant Frazier (Florida A&M) and Aaron Lewis (VMI).
But football wasn’t the only sport that received John Hancocks today.
For instance, Adam Taylor (Lee-Davis) signed with Virginia for track, and Hunter Cheatham is headed to Virginia Tech for soccer.
A bunch of student-athletes are set to sign later in the week as well in various sports.
Below are video highlights and a list of committed and signed athletes in the Central Region from the Class of 2008.
