So he said after the meeting that the system has gotten “so far offtrack,” that new leadership is needed in the county schools.

“This has really been eye-opening for me,” said Candland, who as a member of the Prince William Board of Supervisors does not directly oversee Walts’ employment or his contract.

The walk is an annual project of teacher Shannon Geraghty’s AP U.S. Government class, most of whom are seniors. The group walked from For-

est Park High School to C.D. Hylton High School, a 6-mile path students marked with numerous handmade signs with facts about suicide and notes of encouragement, including: “Suicide is not a remedy,” and “Your story is not over.”

Ebert mum on Dems’ request to ditch bail bonds

By Jonathan Hunley Times Staff Writer

Four of Prince William County’s Democratic state lawmakers are asking the county’s top prosecutor to end the cash bail-bond system, citing the cost of pre-trial incarceration to taxpayers and a system that keeps poor people in jail while those with financial means post bonds for their release.

But so far, Commonwealth’s Attorney Paul Ebert, also a Democrat, has neither responded to the lawmakers’ request nor to calls for comment from this publication.

Dels. Jennifer Carroll Foy, D-2nd; Danica Roem, D-13th; Elizabeth Guzman, D-31st; and Lee Carter, D-50th, recently sent a letter to Ebert, asking him to follow the lead of his counterpart in Richmond in not seeking bail bonds for criminal defendants.

Bonds are set for certain defendants to make sure they show up for trial, but the delegates believe that if defendants aren’t a flight risk or a danger to themselves or others, they shouldn’t be forced to pay to maintain their freedom.

Instead, the lawmakers asked Ebert to create a pretrial release system based only on public safety and flight risk. If someone isn’t a danger or a flight risk,

he should be released before trial. If he is, he should be held.

“The money piece should be eliminated,” Foy said in an interview.

Foy is a public defender in Arlington, but she was a magistrate judge in Richmond for about three years. As such, she’s participated in hundreds, if not thousands, of bail hearings. And she’s seen people struggle to pay bail or have to stay in jail before trial because they couldn’t pay.

In the letter to Ebert, the delegates wrote that the current system of cash bail denies many Americans the presumption of innocence.

“Not only does cash bail have a disproportionately negative impact on low-income individuals and people of color, the current system does little to improve public safety and straddles localities with a significant financial burden,” they wrote.

According to the Pretrial Justice Institute, it costs taxpayers about $75 a day to hold a person in jail pretrial, the delegates wrote, compared to just $7 a day to supervise someone in the community before trial.

The system also affects the accused, they wrote.

“Even a single day of pretrial incarceration can impose high costs on

an accused person, including family strain and loss in income, employment and education,” they wrote.

And eliminating cash bail wouldn’t mean that those accused of serious violent crimes would be out on the streets, as they’re not eligible for bond in Virginia.

“They already can’t get out,” Foy said in the interview.

The delegates noted in their letter that other prosecutors are reforming their bail systems. In Philadelphia, for example, District Attorney Larry Krasner recently announced that city prosecutors would not seek cash bail for 25 types of misdemeanors and for some non-violent felonies. And Richmond Commonwealth’s Attorney Michael Herring instructed prosecutors to make an assessment of a defendant’s risk to the community and recommend to a judge his or her release without bond with pretrial conditions if the defendant does not pose an unacceptable risk.

“We believe that Prince William County residents would benefit by changing the cash bail policy in a similar way to these prosecutors across the country,” the delegates wrote.

A 25-year-old Manassas man was killed Friday night when he crashed his motorcycle into two parked vehicles in the West Gate area, according to Prince William County police.

About 7:18 p.m. Friday, May 11, officers with the crash investigation unit responded to the area of Portsmouth Road and Deward Court, off Lomond Drive, to investigate a crash involving a motorcycle, according to a police press release.

The investigation revealed that the operator of a 2015 Kawasaki Ninja 650 motorcycle was traveling west on Portsmouth Road, just west of Deward Court, when he lost control of the motorcycle and struck two parked vehicles.

The motorcyclist was identified as Luis Enrique Chirino Rodriguez, 25, of Manassas.

He was wearing a helmet at the time of the crash and was pronounced dead at the hospital, the press release said.

The cause of the crash is still under investigation.

Plan to dredge Neabsco Creek moving forward NEABSCO CREEK, from Page 1 unteer fire department. The marinas also house a boat lift, used by larger vessels from across the region, and the only gas station in the region open 365 days a year.

The potential danger to recreational boaters is that they can be left stranded if their boats run aground, the Coast Guard said in a news release about the issue. Or, in cases where a vessel is traveling at a high speed, boaters can be ejected and suffer injuries or be killed.

But the danger to the three marinas, and a fourth that plans to open, is economic, as boaters may not want to visit the businesses at the creek if they perceive it’s unsafe.

“There’s danger signs, you

know,” said Michael Hart, owner of EZ Cruz Marina.

Prince William County Supervisor Frank Principi, D-Woodbridge, and a coalition of community members and federal, state and local officials are trying to find a solution to the problem.

They have agreed that the four marinas would create a limited liability company to oversee the dredging. The LLC would have an eight-member board, a member representing each marina and four members from the public.

The coalition also decided that the budget for the entire project will be between $1 million and $1.7 million, depending on whether the creek is dredged to a depth of 5 feet or 6 feet. The Prince William Board of Supervisors agreed recently to provide

$750,000 for the dredging, so that means the marina owners would have to come up with the rest, Principi said.

The dredging would take six weeks, and it would have to be done between July 1 and Feb. 15.

“So we think, with this price tag, with this window/timetable, with the LLC, we can get this done in this year actually,” Principi said.

“That’s the good news.”

He also said the supervisors likely will discuss the matter June 19, and he praised the Neabsco Creek community for their work on it.

“The community identified a problem, and they’ve come together as a coordinated unit to deal with it,” he said.

Reach Jonathan Hunley at jhunley@fauquier.com.

Candland to superintendent: ‘Find a new job’ SUPERINTENDENT, from Page 1 also called for Walts’ termination during the meeting, saying the school board should take the action when members evaluate the superintendent next week. The school board is scheduled to meet in closed session May 23 for Walts’ annual evaluation.

“Let us trust our teachers. Let us have them work in a classroom where they’re respected by their administrators. And let’s let our kids enjoy a good quality education, and it’s not going to happen with Steven Walts in this school system — ever,” Haddow said.

Attempts to reach Walts for comment through Phil Kavits, associate superintendent for communication and technology services, were not immediately successful Tuesday morning. In an email, Kavits said Walts likely would not have time to comment Tuesday as he was out visiting schools.

“I can tell you that Dr. Walts is focused on finishing up a year of student successes at Reagan and across the division,” Kavits wrote, noting that Joe Murgo, now an assistant principal at Saunders Middle School, will take over as Reagan Middle School’s new

principal next year.

“We announced the new Reagan Middle School principal to the school community yesterday and look forward to the strong and positive leadership he will bring,” Kavits wrote.

Candland invited Walts to attend the meeting and speak on a controversial public letter about Turner that was sent to parents of Reagan students April 27. But Walts declined, saying it was inappropriate to discuss a personnel matter.

In addition to Haddow, others in the audience of teachers, parents and community members criticized Walts, which made an impression on School Board member Alyson Satterwhite (Gainesville), who attended the meeting along with School Board member Gil Trenum (Brenstsville).

After the meeting, Satterwhite didn’t say Walts should be fired, but she said she would take those comments under consideration.

“There was a very strong feeling in the room tonight, a very strong opinion from, I would say, most of the room, and I think all options are on the table,” she said.

Trenum declined to comment on

Walts’ employment.

Of the eight-member school board, only Trenum and Satterwhite attended the meeting. Both their districts overlap Ronald Reagan Middle School’s attendance boundaries. All three elected officials – Candland, Satterwhite and Trenum – are endorsed by the Prince William County GOP. Satterwhite has announced her candidacy in the upcoming November special election for school board chairman. She faces at least one opponent so far, Interim School Board Chairman Dr. Babur Lateef.

Lateef, a Democrat, was appointed to the chairman’s post by the school board in April in a party-line vote. Attempts to reach Lateef for comment were not immediately successful Tuesday.

Aside from discussing the superintendent specifically, the crowd at the meeting asked questions and spoke about concerns they had with the school system, including the suppression of teachers’ complaints about administrators and other instances of bullying.

Riley O’Casey, a middle school teacher who leads the Prince William Education Association, the local arm of the Virginia Education Association teachers’ union, said she was bullied by a school administrator 13 years ago.

O’Casey said she taught a principal’s son and was told to change his grades. She didn’t, but she ended up being involuntarily transferred to another school.

The ordeal left a toll on O’Casey, but she said PWEA will continue fighting such situations until they end.

“We won’t stop,” she said. “I won’t stop.”

Candland also held a closed session at Reagan Middle immediately before the public meeting. That forum was to allow teachers to speak with him in private about their concerns about bullying or intimidation by administrators.

Reach Jonathan Hunley at jhunley@fauquier.com.

SUBMITTED

The U.S. Coast Guard posted warning signs at the mouth of Neabsco Creek after a crew measured its depth to be less than 4 feet, which is considered too shallow to safely navigate.

Supervisors name executive director of community services The Prince William Board of County Supervisors has named Lisa Madron as executive director of community services, Lisa Madron a public agency providing mental health, developmental disability, substance abuse, emergency services and early intervention programs for residents of Prince William County, Manassas and Manassas Park.

The search for a new executive director came following the announced retirement of the current director. Madron has more than 30 years of experience in social work, counseling and administration in both public and non-profit agencies. She has been with Prince William Community Services for nearly 18 years, most recently serving as the deputy director.

“I truly love serving the Prince William community, and feel privileged to be named as the executive director of Community Services,” said Madron. “I am excited to continue working with the amazing team we have in CS as we strive to meet the needs of our clients.”

Madron is a licensed clinical social worker and received her Master of Social Work from Virginia Commonwealth University and Master of Arts in Developmental Psychology from George Mason University. Additionally, she is a certified cultural and linguistic competence level I facilitator, certified early intervention professional, certified public manager, certified trauma specialist, certified clinical hypnotherapist and certified addiction counselor.

Health insurance companies seek premium hikes

Loving Homes Needed

RappCats is a private, non-profit organization that rescues, cares for, and finds loving homes for abandoned, abused, neglected, injured, and homeless cats and kittens throughout Rappahannock County. We operate the RappCats Adoption Center, a cage-free, no-kill facility that is the only state-approved cat shelter in Rappahannock County.

By James Ivancic Times Staff Writer

Health insurance companies serving Fauquier and Prince William residents on the individual insurance market are asking for average premium increases ranging from 15 to 64.3 percent next year.

Other counties throughout the commonwealth are affected as well.

Gov. Ralph Northam (D) decried the proposed double-digit premium hikes in a statement he issued May 10.

Northam blamed the Trump administration’s “active sabotage of the health care system” and called on the Virginia General Assembly to approve a budget that expands Medicaid.

The Trump policies “include a recent announcement encouraging substandard short-term health insurance plans that ultimately result in financial penalties on people with pre-existing conditions,” Northam said.

“It is essential that Virginia’s leaders clearly state our opposition to any policies that seek to undermine the sustainability of the insurance market our citizens depend on ... But we can also take commonsense, proactive actions right now that will help to ameliorate these rate increases and stabilize the health insurance market for years to come, like expanding Medicaid,” the governor said.

The commonwealth’s Bureau of Insurance will be reviewing the rate requests this summer with a goal of completing its work by August.

The insurers will have an opportunity to make presentations in July to the State Corporation Commission, but action on the filings is an administrative function handled by the Bureau of Insurance, explained Ken Schrad, director of information resources for the SCC. The Bureau of Insurance is part of the SCC, which is a regulatory agency overseeing insurance companies, utilities, securities, retail franchises, railroads and state-chartered financial institutions.

May 4 was the deadline for the health insurers to file their rate submissions.

Schrad said there is typically a back and forth between the insurance companies and the Bureau of Insurance. The insurers may alter their original filings. The bureau will make recommendations to the federal government about rates charged by any insurer that offers coverage through the health insurance exchange. For any insurer not in the federal exchange, the bureau decides if the requested rates are justified.

The following insurers offer health coverage in Fauquier and Prince William counties and have requested the following: • CareFirst Blue Choice Inc. seeks a 26.6-percent average rate increase. The average per member monthly rate would be $896.49.

CareFirst is available to residents north and east of Va. 123.

County to hold meeting about Neabsco Mills Road widening Those who use Neabsco Mills Road between Smoke Court and U.S. 1 know the two-lane road in Woodbridge is congested during morning and evening commutes. Relief is coming in about four years, according to a Prince William County press release.

Northern Virginia Community College’s Woodbridge campus, Freedom High School and commercial and religious facilities contribute to traffic congestion along the road during off-peak hours, said Gladis Arboleda, an engineer with the Prince William County Department of Transportation.

A project to widen the road to four lanes along the 4,300-foot stretch should take care of the problem, the press release said.

“The planned widening of this road is anticipated to ease traffic congestion that occurs regularly and improve vehicular flow for all daily commuters and users of facilities along the roadway,” Arboleda said.

The county’s Department of Transportation will hold an informational meeting from 7-9 p.m.

May 21 at Freedom High School to give people a chance to preview of the plans for project.

The $33.5-million project will include the construction of a shared-use trail along the east side of Neabsco Mills Road, along with a pedestrian

sidewalk on the west side of the road.

Design for the road-widening project is underway, with construction set to begin in October 2020.

Construction is scheduled to be completed in August 2022.

‘Colin: Son, Marine, Hero’ A new version of the ballet Amy Wolfe wrote to honor her Marine son’s sacrifice takes the stage this weekend

By Jill Palermo

Times Staff Writer

Before Lance Cpl. Colin Wolfe shipped off to Iraq in 2006, then a 19-year-old who’d just finished Marine Corps boot camp, he was a Manassas kid, a recent graduate of Osbourn High School and, for most of his life, a dancer.

Colin Wolfe’s mother, Amy Wolfe, is director of the Manassas Ballet Theatre. Colin grew up dancing, she has said, mostly because she did. And although ballet would not become his

life’s passion, Colin was disciplined and diligent in the studio, staying with ballet until he graduated from Osbourn in 2005.

After that, Colin Wolfe turned his focus to the U.S. Marine Corps.

He had decided to enlist nearly four years earlier, on Sept. 11, 2001, when he was just 14.

It was a decision, his mother says, made in response to the terrorist attacks as well as a family vacation to Normandy. That’s where Colin saw the white Stars of David marking the graves of U.S. service members who

died fighting there and was moved by their sacrifice.

Tragically, his military service was cut short. Just seven weeks after deploying to Iraq, Lance Cpl. Colin Wolfe was killed by a roadside bomb.

His family buried him in Arlington Cemetery on Sept. 11, 2006.

Seven years later, Amy Wolfe decided to commemorate her son’s life and sacrifice in the best way she knew how: through dance.

The Manassas Ballet performed the original version of “Colin: Son, Marine, Hero,” in 2013. In its inaugural version, the ballet was just one act. Since then, Amy Wolfe has expanded it to a full ballet, which was performed both in Manassas and in California in 2014.

This week, the Manassas Ballet Theatre will perform the latest iteration of the ballet, which Amy Wolfe has further expanded to include scenes depicting Colin as a 14-yearold boy, the age he was when the 9-11 terrorist attacks spurred his interest in military service.

Previous versions of the ballet depicted Colin as a 10-year-old boy and then as a 19-year-old leaving for active duty. Amy Wolfe said she revised the choreography to add a pivotal time in her son’s life – when he set his mind to joining the Marines.

“That way, the audience would see Colin was still just a boy when he decided to be a Marine and made that dangerous decision about his life,” Amy Wolfe said recently. “I felt it would read so much better that way than to have the audience see him only as a full-grown male dancer.”

The ballet remains set to the original score that Amy Wolfe’s friend, Mark Menza, wrote for the initial show. Wolfe said she shortened transitions to fit in extra scenes of Colin, his younger sister CeCe and their friends as teens.

The ballet depicts scenes from Amy Wolfe’s life from the time she met her husband, Mark Wolfe, who serves as a Manassas City Councilman, through the various stages of Colin and CeCe’s childhood.

The story begins at the end, however, when two uniformed Marines

knock on the door of the Wolfes’ Manassas home in the middle of the night back in August 2006 to tell them of their son’s death.

Amy Wolfe said she believes the additional scenes depicting Colin’s teen years will allow the audience a fuller picture of their family’s life as well as Colin’s. The changes also amount to a different experience for those who might have seen earlier versions.

“That’s the message I’ve been trying to get out there. That even if people saw [the previous ballet], they haven’t seen what exists now,” she said.

What has not changed is Amy Wolfe’s mission for the ballet. As she told writer last year, the ballet was not created for her family or even for Colin. After his death, Amy Wolfe said she met some of the young men her son served with and felt their pain—pain stemming both from the horrors of war as well as the guilt they felt for surviving what some of their friends did not.

“Colin became a Marine because he was passionate about making the world a better place,” Amy Wolfe told writer Caitlin Scott. “I created the ballet because I wanted those boys to know they should take his loss as a reason to make the most of their time in the world and to carry on his mission.”

“I want them to understand that they were saved for a reason,” she added. “The reason is to move on.”

OPINION WWW.PRINCEWILLIAMTIMES.COM

Gainesville / Prince William Times | May 9, 2018

In defense of a free press A free press was foremost on our founders’ minds at the country’s founding. This is hardly surprising. Pamphlets and newspapers had been instrumental in unifying the colonies in the war for independence. They recognized the Constitution provided the mechanism for the nation to run, but public opinion was the driving force for the nation’s success.

The press was the best form of mass communication in the years leading up to the revolution. Throughout the colonies, newspapers cooperated with each other to spread ideas and information, much the way syndicates and wire services do today.

The founders recognized that when writing the Constitution. The new government was based on the idea of checks and balances, and the ultimate check of that power was the people. The founders knew the free press would serve as the avenue to hold the government accountable. “…the basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. but I should mean that every man should receive those papers & be capable of reading them,” Thomas Jefferson wrote in 1787.

Two-plus centuries have changed the nature of the press, but time hasn’t changed its intrinsic role in

our republic. Whether online, through social media, on television or through traditional newspapers, the public generally relies on the reporting of others to inform it of what the government is up to.

Today, credibility of sources is of the utmost importance. While there are many advantages to our new, connected world, there are some major red flags to consider: Anonymity: Through web design, it is easy for anonymous writers, lacking access and information, to write with a perception of authority. It is also simple for a site to mimic and established source.

Ease of distribution: Through social media, which has yet to develop reliable safeguards,

it is easy to spread false information at an incredible level.

Vulnerability: According to our own intelligence, it has proven to be simple for foreign entities, and perhaps foreign powers, to spread disinformation.

The public has unprecedented access to information, but how that information is vetted and presented is vitally important.

Journalists have years of learning and experience to guide them and tools to access information. They ask questions. And they are held accountable to get it right.

Yes, these are all things the general public can do, but there is one major difference. While the people juggle family and work in addition to civic responsibilities, it is a journalist’s primary function. It is what they are paid to do.

As governments explore interpretations of sunshine laws, designed to keep meetings open to the public, it is vitally important to remember the unique qualities of a free press. Facebook livestreams may provide passive access but are no replacement for local journalists who grasp the issues and ask questions.

Whether on the federal, state or local level, journalists serve as a watchdog for the people. They will pursue the truth at all costs to hold elected officials and organizations accountable, legally and fiscally.

The public should always view attempts to curb freedom of the press with caution. That’s often a strategy that aims to keep the public in the dark.

‘WE SPOKE IT INTO EXISTENCE’ Former Stonewall Jackson and Hokie stars Settle, Stroman continue parallel paths as Redskins

By Noah Fleischman Special to the Times

High school, college and now NFL teammates.

The duo of defensive tackle Tim Settle and cornerback Greg Stroman remain paired after being drafted by the Washington Redskins following their careers at Stonewall Jackson High and Virginia Tech.

“There’s a reason why we keep ending up on the same team, and there’s a reason why we keep being close,” said Settle. “I know we are going to make plays together and that’s what we have been doing, and we are going to keep doing it.”

Settle was selected with the 163rd overall pick in the fifth round and Stroman was picked 241st overall in the seventh round.

They donned burgundy Skins jerseys last week at rookie mini-camp in Ashburn. Settle wore No. 97, Settle wore No. 25.

After Settle was selected by the Redskins, the Stroman household started to wonder if the two could play together again at the next level.

“It shocked me a little bit, but I mean my family and I talked about it, we brought it up,” said Stroman.

“It’s kind of like we spoke it into existence and that’s what happened.

It was exciting to hear the news and now we just got to play.”

Only 20, Settle declared for the NFL draft with two years left of eligibility, after starting in 13 games for the Hokies last season. He recorded a career-high 36 total tackles, including 21 solo tackles and four sacks.

In Settle’s first drill with the Redskins, defensive line coach Jim Tomsula barked, “Good job Settle!”

He had just finished his first time through a footwork drill.

Stroman had his best season returning punts as a senior, averaging 11 yards per return, including two

Defying unbelievably long odds, Tim Settle and Greg Stroman are playing together as rookies for the Washington Redskins. “It was exciting to hear the news and now we just got to play,” said Stroman, taken in the seventh round after Settle was taken in the fifth. Both played at Stonewall Jackson and Virginia Tech. punt return touchdowns.

“It’s a blessing to be close to home, it’s a blessing to be playing for a coach that recruited me,” said Stroman, who is 22 and was born in Warrenton. “It’s just a blessing to have one of my good friends to be my teammate once again.

[He’s] my good luck penny, that’s how I look at it, and we play well together.

And when we are on the same team we take care of each other.”

Stroman was recruited by Torrian Gray to play at Virginia Tech when Stroman was playing at Stonewall. Gray coached for 10 seasons in Blacksburg, coaching the defensive backs. He joined the Washington coaching staff this offseason as the defensive backs coach.

Former Redskin cornerback and Virginia Tech alum Kendall Fuller gave Stroman some advice about Washington. Fuller played for the

Hokies during Stroman’s freshman and sophomore seasons in Blacksburg. Fuller was traded from Washington in the offseason to Kansas City in exchange for quarterback Alex Smith.

“I talked to [Kendall] a lot, I talked to him [draft day]. I talk to him twice a week, three times a week,” said Stroman. “That’s been my big brother, him and coach Gray I give them all the praise of how I learned to play corner. I was a quarterback in high school, then I came to college, got under his wing and coach Gray’s wing and those guys really helped me along the way.”

Settle and Stroman have built a bond since playing at Stonewall. This bond has allowed them to create a competitive atmosphere so far in their early NFL careers.

“It’s been easier [transitioning

into the NFL] having someone with me, so I’m not alone even though we are from this area,” said Settle. “Me and Greg have always been close, so [it’s been] us just bonding together and going over the playbook. I would tell him ‘Bet I know this more than you,’ and you could do stuff like that. I can joke with him because I know how he is and his personality.”

Stroman played cornerback and returned punts at Virginia Tech. Leading up to the draft Stroman was criticized for being too small to play cornerback in the NFL, but he looks to prove his doubters wrong this season.

“I feel like [my] versatility will help, I just have to go out there and prove certain things,” said Stroman. “I have to prove I can play corner. I have to prove I can learn the system. I have to prove I can return punts. It’s starting all over again from square one.”

As usual, Potomac reigns in the end

Panthers overcome Hylton, 7-3, to win Cardinal baseball crown

By Jeff Malmgren Times Staff Writer

With the outright district championship on the line, a blistering ground ball took a high hop off the dirt during the top of the second inning Friday.

It ricocheted off the right cheek of Potomac third baseman Brandon Grigsby, so Nicholas Ericsson reached base on an error and later scored to give the Hylton Bulldogs an early lead on the road in Dumfries.

Less than 15 minutes later, however, Grigsby tied the score by hitting an RBI double in the bottom of the second. Then he gave Potomac the lead for good by scoring on an RBI double from Brandon Cleveland en route to a 7-3 victory that clinched the Cardinal District regular season championship for Potomac.

And that second-inning sequence seemed to symbolize the Panthers’ entire season. They took some lumps early by losing three of their initial seven district games, but they responded by winning their final six to clinch the Cardinal title.

“We lost a couple games we weren’t supposed to,” Cleveland said.

“But we fought back. It feels good.

“It’s our chemistry,” he said.

“That takes us a long way.”

So Potomac finished the regular season with a 17-3 overall record and

By winning the regular season title, Potomac avoided playing in Tuesday’s Cardinal District tournament quarterfinals. They were scheduled to host the Gar-Field-Colgan survivor Wednesday at 6, with the final Thursday at the highest remaining seed. a 9-3 district mark. A loss Friday to Hylton (9-11, 5-7) would left the

Panthers in a three-way tie for first place in the Cardinal standings with Woodbridge (8-4) and Forest Park (8-4), but they avoided that fate.

So Potomac won the outright title despite losing eight players from a 2017 team that won the district-equivalent Conference 15 championship.

“If I said I wasn’t a little bit surprised, I’d be lying,” Panthers coach Mike Covington said of their sustained success. “But for us it’s expected. That’s the standard.”

The back of Potomac’s home dugout serves as a reminder. The year of each district-level championship is painted on that wall, and it will soon include 25 entries over 37 seasons with the addition of the 2018 title.

“I’ve had teams that were maybe more talented,” said Covington, a 25-year head coach with more than 430 wins, “but when they would get behind, panic would set in a little bit.

These guys don’t seem to panic.

“This is the best team I’ve ever had, as far as they just play,” he said.

So Covington earned his 13th district-level title this season.

The Panthers will next try to vie for their fourth region championship in history. They should enter the Class 5 Region D tournament with confidence after faring well with a regular season schedule largely composed of larger Class 6 schools.

“Rings, that’s always the goal,” Cleveland said of Potomac’s playoff hopes. “We have the potential.”

As Potomac’s senior leadoff hitter and shortstop, Cleveland sets the tone for his teammates. He did so Friday with a pair of RBI doubles, two runs and a stolen base on 3-for-4 hitting.

“He always shows up with a smile on his face, he’s ready to go and he’s

full-tilt from the beginning to the end,” Covington said. “You don’t get kids like that all the time.”

Julian Cumba added one RBI and one double in the game on 2-for-3 hitting, while Josue Cumba went 1-for-3 with a run and Grigsby went 1-for-1 with his early RBI-double. They also helped the Panthers slide in safe on 4 of 5 close plays at the plate.

“They’re very aggressive,” Bulldogs coach Jason Ritenour said.

“One of the fastest teams that I’ve seen Mike have in numerous years.

There’s not a lot of sure outs in that lineup, they wreak havoc on the bases and they put pressure on the defense.”

Offensively for Hylton, Ethan Morotske had one run on 2-for-4 hitting, while Semones went 1-for-4 with a stolen base. So Panthers relief pitcher Brody Mack finished with seven strikeouts over 3 2/3 innings while allowing one run on three hits and one walk. Yet starting pitcher Josue Cumba earned the victory by striking out four over 3 1/3 innings while allowing two runs (one earned) on three hits and one walk.

FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY Proposed Flood Hazard Determinations for the City of Manassas and Unincorporated Areas of Prince William County, Virginia, Case No. 17-03-2321P. The Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) solicits technical information or comments on proposed flood hazard determinations for the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), and where applicable, the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report for your community.

These flood hazard determinations may include the addition or modification of Base Flood Elevations, base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard Area boundaries or zone designations, or the regulatory floodway. The FIRM and, if applicable, the FIS report have been revised to reflect these flood hazard determinations through issuance of a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR), in accordance with Title 44, Part 65 of the Code of Federal Regulations. These determinations are the basis for the floodplain management measures that your community is required to adopt or show evidence of having in effect to qualify or remain qualified for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program.
