County supervisor races drawing a crowd Four more vying for board in 2019 By Jill Palermo

Times Staff Writer

The list of candidates running for Prince William County’s Board of Supervisors in 2019 continues to grow with four more hopefuls joining the race in recent weeks. Don Scoggins, a longtime Republican activist who left the party earli-

er this year because of his frustration with President Donald Trump has announced his bid for board chairman. He will run as an independent. Meanwhile, Doug Taggart is vying for the Republican nomination for the Potomac District seat, which will be open due to the pending retirement of longtime Supervisor Maureen Caddigan, also a Republican. Democrat Andrea Bailey declared her candidacy for the seat last spring. And in the Coles District, one Republican, Patrick Sowers, and a sec-

ond Democrat, Raheel Sheikh, have entered the race to replace Supervisor Marty Nohe, a Republican who will leave his seat after 15 years to run for board chairman. Democrat LaTonsha Pridgen announced her candidacy for the Coles District in October. The additions bring the total number of declared candidates for county supervisor to 17 for the eight available seats. Only two sitting supervisors currently do not have declared challengers: Supervisors Pete Candland, a

When dignitaries and guests have their photos taken with President Donald Trump and the First Lady this holiday season, they’ll have Amy Lienemann of Haymarket and Shelley Campbell of Marshall— and about 228 others — to thank for the striking backdrop. Lienemann, an interior decorator, and Campbell, a florist, were among volunteers who helped decorate the White House in an “American traditions” theme for the holiday season. They worked in teams for three full days — 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. — knee-deep in Christmas ornaments, flowers and bright red beads. Lienemann placed ornaments on the live Christmas trees and the fireplace mantle in the diplomatic reception room and festooned Melania Trump’s internet-famous red Christmas trees with berries. Campbell focused her efforts on the West Wing, the east entrance to the White House, and the Gold Star tree. The red trees lining the grand foyer were constructed of tree-sized styrofoam cones. “The holly berries are actually red styrofoam spheres,” said Lienemann. “Some were

(grouped) on sticks and others were individually placed. After all the berries were on the trees, we went in with red markers and touched up any of them that had any white showing through. It was actually very tedious work.” The result was “several layers of red and deep burgundy berries. I think they turned out beautifully,” she said. “The trees have real dimension, with different sizes of berries.” The owner of Sensibly Savvy Designs, a home-decorating business in Haymarket, Lienemann helps her clients with everything from color consultations to full renovations. She said she works closely with homeowners to make sure they are a part of the design process. “At the end of a job, I get to walk away. My clients have to live with our choices every day. We work to make decisions together,” she said. That team mentality was put to good use as Lienemann worked alongside other volunteers to decorate the White House. “Some were floral designers, some were teachers…. One man had been doing it every year for 39 years. There were volunteers from all over the country. There were two people from South Korea and one lady from France. It was

fun, but exhausting,” she said.

‘Just a mom with a glue gun’

Campbell agreed that meeting and working with the other volunteers was a highlight of the experience. Campbell said she and a girlfriend befriended a young military widow who was also volunteering.

Area police play ‘Santa Cop’ to about 100 local kids Santa Cops stormed through Prince William County, Manassas and Manassas Park with a mission to make the season brighter for about 100 at-risk kids ages 5 though 10.

The Fraternal Order of Police, Battlefield Lodge 43, kicked off its 2018 Santa Cops charity event Dec. 1 when officers from several local agencies – including Prince William County police, Prince William Adult Detention Center, the Prince William County Sheriff’s Office, Virginia State Police and George Mason University -- donated their time to take the children shopping “in hopes of making their Christmas special,” the Fraternal Order of Police said in a news release. The annual charity event continued Saturday, Dec. 8, when officers from those departments were joined by those from Manassas City Police, Manassas Park Police and Haymarket police to take more than 50 children shopping at the Super Walmart at Manassas Mall. After the shopping, a convoy of

police cruisers escorted the children to breakfast donated by Outback Steakhouse of Woodbridge on Dec. 1 and by the Park West Lion’s Club on Dec. 8. The participating children are selected by Prince William County, Manassas City and Manassas Park schools. “They come from all walks of life and differing circumstances, but all are faced with financial limitations in their homes,” the Fraternal Order of Police said. “Our mission is to promote a positive law enforcement image with these children. Children need to experience officers as caring people who are willing to provide positive support. In supporting this project, we hope that we can make a real difference to the lives of vulnerable young people.” The effort aims to improve the

connections between adults and young people, which is “the core element of effective crime prevention and deterring negative, delinquent behaviors and encouraging achievement,” police said in the release. “It helps leave a lasting impression of law enforcement with kids who sometimes don’t see police in a positive way,” it continued.  All funds for the program are donated local businesses and residents of Prince William County. All donations are tax-deductible through the Battlefield Lodge 43 Charitable Foundation, Inc., a 501(c)(3) organization. Donations can be mailed to: Battlefield Charitable Foundation, Inc., P.O. Box 195, Woodbridge, VA 22194 or made in person at either one of the events.

Police: 18-year-old fell from Lake Jackson Drive bridge after hit-and-run An 18-year-old man was running on the side of Lake Jackson Road Friday when he was struck by a car and fell off a bridge, police said. Police are asking for the public’s help in gathering information about the vehicle that struck the man and left the scene. At 5:35 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 7, officers responded to the area of Lake Jackson Drive and Dumfries Road to investigate a possible missing person, Prince William County police said in a news release. An 18-year-old man had called his parents

“stating he was hurt and could not remember anything,” the man’s parents reported to police. Police located to victim over the side of a bridge embankment on Lake Jackson Drive, “after an extensive search,” the police news release said. Police investigated and determined that the victim was running on the east side of Lake Jackson Drive when he was apparently struck by an unknown vehicle sometime between 4:45 and 5:24 p.m. The victim fell off the bridge and landed on a rocky embankment below, police said.

William County police said in a news release. A 41-year-old woman told police that she was shopping in the store when an unknown man approached her from behind as she was reaching down to look at products on a shelf, police said in the news release. “During the encounter, the suspect inappropriately touched the victim and whispered something indecipherable into her ear,” the police news release said. The suspect eventually left the business and no further contact was made, police said. No injuries were reported. The investigation continues. The suspect is described as black, between 35 and 40 years old, 6 feet tall and 180 pounds, with brown eyes and black, shoulder-length cornrows. He was last seen wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt, black coat, green camo pants and white shoes.

Four more vying for board in 2019 SUPERVISORS, from page 1

2019. Stewart ran unsuccessfully for higher office three times since 2013: for lieutenant governor in 2013, governor in 2017 and the U.S. Senate last November. Stewart lost the last contest to incumbent Sen. Tim Kaine (D) by 16 points statewide and by a whopping 31 points in Prince William County. With or without Stewart the 2019 contest is shaping up to be one of the most competitive in recent memory.

Scoggins (I) for board chair

Scoggins, 73, had been active in the GOP since he campaigned for President Dwight D. Eisenhower in the 1950s but said last summer he could no longer tolerate Trump’s false statements. But Scoggins said his views don’t align with those of the Democratic Party either, as he considers himself a fiscal conservative. Scoggins said he’ll bring new ideas to the county board. He’d like the county to be more aggressive in pursuing public-private partnerships to boost economic development. As an example, he said the county should pursue such a partnership to bring a convention center to the Potomac Mills area. He’d also like to see the county

open a stand-alone high school focused on the trades and would encourage the school division to stagger high school students’ schedules so students could attend classes over a longer school day as a means of dealing with overcrowding. “Prince William County is not Fairfax County or Arlington. We must admit that. … We don’t have the tax base those places do,” Scoggins said. “So we can’t do everything they can do, but we can do different things. We can use our ingenuity to set Prince William apart.” Scoggins is a former U.S. Army officer. Professionally, he was a longtime real estate agent as well as a housing specialist with Fairfax County and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Sheikh (D) for Coles supervisor

Sheikh, 44, owns four automobile service centers around the county and has a background in information systems and insurance. He’s running to bring a businessman’s perspective to the county board as well as that of a father of three children, ages 20, 18 and 12. Two graduated from Prince William high schools, and the youngest is a middle-schooler. Sheikh said the county needs to do more to attract businesses and should put more resources into the school division. “The board of supervisors, they real-

She’s not worried about the plumbing , heat or electric…

ly have not been putting enough money toward the school system,” Sheikh said. Sheikh said he’s particularly concerned there aren’t enough school counselors to support students’ mental health needs. In Prince William schools, the ratio of students to school counselors is more than 400 to one. The American School Counselor Association recommends a ratio of no more than 250 students to each counselor. Sheikh immigrated to the U.S. in 1997 when he was 22, after having studied physics, chemistry and math at a university in Pakistan.

Sowers (R) for Coles supervisor

Sowers, 44, is a native of Prince William County who runs his own home-improvement business, Loyalty Exteriors. He’s also a realtor and has served as president of the Winding Creek homeowners association for more than a decade. Additionally, Sowers has served on the Prince William County Community Services Board for three years and now serves on the Virginia Community Services Board, as well. He is married and has an 8-year-old daughter. Sowers said his top concerns are combatting the opioid-addiction crisis, maintaining strong public safety agencies and making “responsible” decisions about residential development. Sowers said both the county and state can do more to make medicine-assisted treatment available for

people struggling with substance-use disorders. Regarding development, Sowers said he won’t be a “rubber stamp” for new projects but rather will carefully consider each on its merits. He said he’s open to “possibilities for responsible development” changes to the rural crescent, but would only consider policies that are Constitutional, allow property owners to maintain the peaceful enjoyment of their land and are good for existing residents.

Taggart (R) for Potomac District

Taggart is a retired U.S. Coast Guard officer and president of Overlook Systems Technologies, Inc., a Vienna-based engineering firm and federal contractor. Taggart said he’s running to lend his expertise toward improving the county’s roads, schools and economy. “Our local government must be up to the challenge of modernizing our roads and transportation options, improving our schools and facilitating job creation and growth in the private sector so Prince William residents do not have to commute to other counties to work.” Taggart said. Taggart and his family have lived in Prince William County for more than 25 years. He served as treasurer and former president of the Montclair Property Owners Association, representing nearly 15,000 residents. He is also the president of the nonprofit Azalea Charities, Inc.

Local designers ready the White House for the holidays DECORATIONS, from page 1 “Her husband died in September. We kind of adopted her,” Campbell said. While moving in between the West Wing and the east entrance, Campbell saw that the media was interviewing Gold Star families. “We were all just bawling, it was very touching,” she said. Campbell made friends easily with folks from all different backgrounds. There was a teacher from Kentucky, and one woman who described herself as “just a mom with a glue gun.” Her partner much of the day was a woman who was checking it off her bucket list. “She looked at everything like a child would,” Campbell said. “She loved it.” Campbell was effusive. “I am still on a high from the experience.” She was one of two dozen on “Team Blitzen,” she said. “About half of us were designers.” Campbell made sure to emphasize that the volunteers were car-

rying out a carefully prepared vision; they were not designing, they were executing. Campbell’s 33 years as a floral designer were helpful, though. As the owner/operator of Shelley’s Floral Enterprise in Marshall, her expertise with fresh flowers was appreciated. “I’d thought about applying to do this for years, but never had the time. This year, my husband said, ‘I want you to do this, even if I have to drive you in and out of D.C. every day,’” she said. Campbell ended up staying in a hotel with other White House decorating volunteers. “They bused us in every day and we went through security, which was very tight,” she said.

Lienemann explained that a small volunteer army did the preparation work from Monday, Nov. 19 to Thursday, Nov. 22, visiting the warehouse and laying out materials. The decorating crew worked Friday, Saturday and Sunday, completing the design work. A catered party celebrated the volunteers when the last decoration was placed. Campbell said that although she and her fellow volunteers worked hard, no one worked more devotedly than those who worked on the berry-covered trees. “They stayed later than anyone else. God love ‘em. That was a lot of detail,” she said. Lienemann acknowledged that the bright red trees have proven to be a controversial choice, but she’s a fan. “Red is a beautiful color if you pick the right shade, and vibrant colors are coming back in style,” she said. “We’ll have to wait and see whether or not holly red berries become a decorating trend for this year.” Reach Robin Earl at news@fauquier.com

Torian on the ERA: Make America great again ‘code for make America white again’ Jill Palermo

Times Staff Writer

On Nov. 21, the Prince William Board of Supervisors refused to support an effort to pass the Equal Rights Amendment in Virginia.  On Dec. 3, Del. Luke Torian, Prince William’s senior Democrat in the state House of Delegates, explained why he’s sponsoring legislation to make Virginia the 38th and last state needed to ratify the now 47-year-old constitutional amendment. Torian, head pastor of First Mount Zion Baptist Church in Dumfries, evoked his wife, his daughter and his four sisters in his explanation and noted: “this may get me in a little bit of political hot water.” That might be because Torian also mentioned President Donald Trump’s campaign slogan “Make America great again,” as among his reasons for supporting the ERA, which states that “equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or

by any state on account of sex.” “During the last presidential campaign, our current president used the slogan ‘Make America Great Again,’” Torian said. “I found that to be code language [for] ‘make America white again,’ [and] ‘make America all male [and] white again.' “And I think that if you look at some of the policies that are coming forward out of this administration, it is very threatening to the current administration that black and brown people are becoming predominant in our society,” Torian added. “So, hence, make America Great Again [means] protect white, male privilege.” Torian continued by saying it is his “honor” to co-patron this legislation with Del. Jennifer Carroll Foy, D-2nd, who is also a member of Prince William County’s delegation to the state House. “I’m happy to be a co-patron. I have a wife, I have a daughter. We have a daughter,” Torian corrected himself. “And I have four sisters. My wife is just

New animal Shelter on budget, on schedule Staff Reports The new $15.1-million animal shelter is on track to completed on schedule in early 2021. The design for the shelter is set to be finished in January with plan review to follow. Permitting and bidding is set to occur between January and May. Construction is scheduled to begin in June with occupancy planned for February 2021, according to Tom Bruun the director of the Prince William County Public Works Department, who recently briefed the Prince William Board of Supervisors. “We are where we want to be at

this point from a schedule perspective,” Bruun said. In addition, the projected cost for shelter remains the same, Bruun told the board members. Prince William County spokesman Jason Grant said the project is proceeding at a pace consistent with other projects of similar size. “The length of time from when the board approved the animal shelter concept to when the contract will be awarded is due to the time necessary to create formal architectural and engineering designs that allow us to bid out the project and award a contract,” Grant said. “The design phase for a capital project of this scope is typically 12-18 months.”  With designs being completed,

as smart as any other man in education. She gave her life to education for 30plus years. And I dare say over the 30plus years, she did not earn equal pay as her male counterparts.” Torian’s comments came during a town hall meeting on the ERA held Monday, Dec. 3 at the A.J. Ferlazzo Building in Woodbridge sponsored by Prince William County’s Delta Sigma Theta alumnae chapter.  About 50 people turned out to hear Torian, Foy and Del. Hala Ayala, D-51st, talk about the effort to get the ERA to the floor of a joint session of the state General Assembly in January and other legislative priorities.

Only Prince William, Loudoun turned down the ERA

Kati Hornung, campaign coordinator for Virginia Ratify ERA, said Prince William County has so far been an anomaly when it comes to local county boards’ support for the ERA.  Of the 18 Virginia towns and counties that have considered local resolutions to support the legislative effort to pass the ERA, only Prince William and Loudoun counties have balked. Prince William is the only county so far to have actually voted down a proposed resolution, which they did just before Thanksgiving, when a resolution proposed by Supervisor Frank Principi, D-Woodbridge, failed to advance for the lack of a second.  Citing fear of the ERA’s unintended consequences, the Prince William board passed an alternate resolution supporting the idea of equality -- but not the ERA -- on a 5-to-2 vote, with Principi and Supervisor Marty Nohe, R-Coles, abstaining. The Loudoun County Board of Supervisors never took up their resolution because it was blocked by the

board’s Republican vice chairman back in September. But Hornung said ERA proponents are nonetheless enthused by local government support for the ERA, considering that Republican-led boards in Shenandoah, Page and Powhatan counties have passed resolutions in support of their effort. Chesterfield County is in the process of considering a resolution now. Hornung further said the group believes it has the support of enough Republican state senators and delegates to support ratifying the ERA if the measure makes it onto the floor of the General Assembly. The state Senate has passed a bill to ratify the ERA five times since 2011. Four Republican state senators have voted in favor of the ERA in past attempts, including Sens. Jill Vogel, R-27th; Richard Stuart, R-28th; Glen Sturtevant, R-10th; and Siobhan Dunnavant, R-12th. Bills to ratify the ERA have never made it to the House of Delegates because they have been blocked by Republican members of the Privileges and Elections Committee, including Del. Tim Hugo, R-40th, whose district includes part of Prince William. The goal, Hornung said, is to gain enough bi-partisan support for the ERA to pass in Virginia, which proponents believe will be enough to make it the law of the land.  (Congress likely would have to take some action to extend or amend the amendment’s ratification deadline, which lapsed in 1979, although that remains a matter of some dispute.) “It really should be both parties together voting for equality for future generations,” Hornung said.

the county will soon put the project out to bid. According to Grant, once bids are received the county will have firm costs proposals, and then can address any changes to the scope or cost of the project. “All of our projects are subject

to materials and labor cost increases that are outside of our control. However, as of this time, we remain on schedule and within budget to deliver the animal shelter as approved by the board,” Grant said.

OPINION WWW.PRINCEWILLIAMTIMES.COM

Prince William Times | December 12, 2018

On the ERA and ACA: What you need to know now The Equal Rights Amendment is the news once again because of a statewide push to encourage the Virginia General Assembly to ratify the 47-year-old addition to the U.S. Constitution when it convenes in Richmond early next year. Nevada and Illinois became the 36th and 37th states to ratify the ERA since 2017. Now, Virginia seems the most likely state to become No. 38, which advocates contend is enough to make the amendment law of the land. ERA promoters in Virginia have launched a website (VAratifyERA. com) and a statewide bus tour to spread the word. They contend that despite the gains women have made in recent decades, the U.S. Constitution still fails to guarantee protection from discrimination based on sex. ERA opponents say the 14th Amendment, which states no state can “deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the law,” is sufficient to protect women and men from discrimination based on sex. Proponents, meanwhile, say the 14th Amendment is not enough because it ensures “strict scrutiny” based on race, religion and country of origin, but not necessarily based on gender. Gender, they argue, enjoys only an “intermediate” level of consideration in discrimination claims. The text of the ERA is straightforward: “Equality of rights under the

law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any other state on account of sex.” Its acceptance might be considered a given in a country whose very Declaration of Independence declared it self-evident “that all men are created equal.” But how has that worked out? Given that slavery was not vanquished until after the Civil War, and women were not afforded the right to vote until 1920 – almost 150 years after the declaration’s signing – is proof that words don’t always mean what they seem. When asked to support the ERA’s ratification, the Prince William Board of Supervisors balked, citing concerns about loosening restrictions on abortion and other unintended consequences. The board passed an alternative “equality resolution,” which is now the subject of its own page on the VAratifyERA website under “opposition.” Whether or not the General Assembly ratifies the ERA in 2019, the amendment will face additional hurdles before its tacked onto the U.S. Constitution. Either Congress or the courts will have to act to overcome the 10-year ratification deadline that expired in 1982. Perhaps proponents’ most compelling argument in support of the ERA is the chance for Virginia to, as they say, “be on the right side of history.” It’s certainly something our

state has failed to do in other matters of basic civil rights. Regarding the ACA For anyone who is without employer-provided health insurance, the window is closing to sign up for health insurance through the Affordable Care Act. The deadline to do so is Saturday, Dec. 15. If that’s news to you, it might be because the signup period was shortened this year, and fewer resources were spent spreading the word. The good news is that the healthcare.gov website is easy to navigate. Fill in your employment information and check some boxes to estimate your income for 2019. You’ll receive your eligibility results, including a potential tax credit if you qualify. (If your income turns out to be more than your estimate, you may have to repay some or all of the tax credits at the end

of the plan year.) Once armed with the tax-credit estimate, you can review the plans available in your area and get details about copays, deductibles and monthly premiums. Helpful hint: A “gold” plan isn’t necessarily the most comprehensive — or the most expensive. Read details carefully, keeping in mind your family’s specific needs. A family where one member might become pregnant in the next year or a family with several children will have different priorities than a male millennial in good health. Common questions are answered on the website. Call 1-800-318-2596 to connect with experts who can answer questions clearly and simply. There is no individual mandate in effect for 2019, so those who choose to go without health insurance will not have to pay a penalty.

ISO: State funding to break up local traffic bottlenecks As traffic congestion continues to plague us, I  am intensifying my fight for more transportation resources in our area.  Last week, I testified before the Commonwealth Transportation Board and made the case for more funds for several critically needed transportation projects: the Interstate 95/Occoquan bottleneck; U.S. 1 widening and bus rapid transit; U.S. 1 in Dumfries; and several other projects. A few years ago, we began scoring projects based on objective criteria, including congestion relief, economic development, environmental benefits and safety improvements.  Not surprisingly, U.S. 1 scored relatively high using these new metrics as compared to projects around the rest of Northern Virginia, a result that underscores my longtime argument that U.S. 1 has been ignored over the last few decades. In 2013, we also created a regional transportation funding pool with regionally-administered taxes disbursed by the Northern Virginia Transportation Authority.  About two months ago, the NVTA agreed to invest more than $450 million to widen U.S. 1 in Hybla Valley; support U.S. 1 bus rapid transit; reconstruct the CSX

SCOTT SUROVELL STATE SENATOR 36TH DISTRICT scott@scottsurovell.org Bridge on U.S. 1 just north of I-95; and acquire right-of-way  on U.S. 1 through the town of Dumfries.  The CTB is considering eight projects in the 36th Senate District. I pointed out that the I-95 is chronically jammed near Occoquan. This is my constituents’ number one traffic complaint. Prince William County has asked the CTB to allocate $25 million to add a lane between Va. 123 and the Prince William County Parkway in both directions.  Achieving this will require a payment to Transurban to compensate it for lost tolls. I have been pressing Gov. Ralph Northam to negotiate this quickly, and I am hopeful we might have progress soon.   I also supported Fairfax County’s

request for an additional $139 million to fund U.S. 1 widening and U.S. 1 bus rapid transit from Huntington Metro to the Woodbridge Virginia Railway Express Station. This project has become more expensive and the more money the state invests, the more likely the federal government will award a significant transit grant to fund the balance of the project. These funds, coupled with the $377 million already allocated by the NVTA, are real investments in U.S. 1. This is also one of the largest transit projects pending in the entire state. I argued for investing $77 million to build a new interchange at U.S. 1 and Va. 123 just south of the Occoquan River. The VRE station there will bring significant growth to that area.  This project will help people cross U.S. 1 more safely, keep traffic moving, support predicted growth and facilitate commuting. I requested $77 million to support the $45 million allocated by the NVTA to complete rebuilding U.S. 1 through Dumfries.  Each time I-95 is gridlocked, Dumfries gets pummeled.  The existing configuration of U.S. 1 has limited economic development in

the town and this project will transform the town with new sidewalks and multi-use paths.  Lastly, I supported two smaller Prince William County projects: $8 million to improve the intersection of Old Bridge Road and Occoquan Road and $32 million to complete Summit School Road’s connection with Telegraph Road near the Horner Road commuter lot in Woodbridge.  Interconnectivity is critical in this area as it continues to develop because of its proximity to I-95 and the Potomac Mills Shopping Mall. Overall, we have requested an additional $350 million in addition to the $434 million allocated by the NVTA for the U.S. 1/I-95 corridor. The new transportation taxes we enacted in 2013 are finally starting to pay dividends.  I will continue my work to see that transportation officials fund our requests. It is an honor to serve as your state senator.  Email me at scott@scottsurovell.org if you have any feedback. The writer is a Democratic state senator representing the 36th District, which includes parts of Fairfax, Prince William and Stafford counties.

7 Wins for Osbourn boys 5 Wins for Patriot girls 5 Wins for Brentsville girls 4 Wins for Woodbridge girls OSBOURN

PATRIOT

From Nokesville to Manassas to Woodbridge, Prince William has perfect Above: BRENTSVILLE Osbourn’s Draykeau basketball teams Hogan. Left: By Jeff Malmgren Times Staff Writer

The Osbourn Eagles trailed by three points midway through the second quarter Friday, but they dominated the second half to remain undefeated with a 56-36 victory over Potomac’s boys basketball team on the road in Dumfries. After falling behind 14-11, Osbourn finished on a 45-22 run to boost its record to 7-0 while dropping the Panthers to 2-2. The Eagles held Potomac under 13 points in each period after the Panthers entered the night averaging 63 points per game. Caleb Satchell led the Panthers with 10 points (4-for-6 field goals), while Tyrell Harris (4-for-6) had nine, Ray Woods had seven and Julian Cumba-Figueroa had five. Harris also had six rebounds, while Satchell and Taylor had two assists each with Kejahn Raine adding two steals.

Patriot boys 70, Forest Park 37

Twelve Patriot players scored Friday to help the Pioneers remain undefeated with a 70-37 victory over Forest Park’s boys basketball team on the road in Woodbridge. They improved their record to 5-0 by taking a 20-8 lead in the first quarter, a 39-18 advantage at halftime and a 52-26 lead entering the fourth period. Patriot held the Bruins to a season-low point total, with fewer than 12 points in each quarter, while dropping Forest

Park’s record to 0-4. Hagen Vandiver led the Pioneers with 12 points, while Devon Parrish had 10, Yusef Salih had nine and Griffin Flanagan had eight, as did Jakai Moore. Salih also had seven assists and Zack Blue had four, while Moore had eight rebounds and Vandiver had six. Parrish added three steals and Blue had two, while Moore had two blocks. Patriot’s defense also held the Bruins to 31 percent field goal shooting (12-for-39). Darryl Garib led Forest Park with 14 points, while Brandon Daniels had seven, Kenneth Clark had five and Kevin Johnson had four.

Brentsville girls 43, Kettle Run 23

The Brentsville Tigers defeated Nokesville-rival Kettle Run for the second time in 11 days, earning a 43-23 win Friday at home. So they remained undefeated with a 5-0 record after opening the girls basketball season with a 55-32 win

over the Cougars, whose record dropped to 1-3 Friday after falling behind 18-12 at halftime. Shannon Hutchens led Brentsville with 14 points and helped the Tigers end the night averaging only 31.8 points allowed per game. Catherine Forst and Gabrielle Garrison added seven points each while Cai Smith had six. For Kettle Run, Sarah Hume had eight points with Emory Shorts and Faith Schaefer adding five each.

Woodbridge girls 47, Paul VI 40

After facing an early nine-point deficit, the Woodbridge Vikings completed a rally with a dominant defensive effort in the fourth quarter for a 47-40 victory over the Paul VI girls basketball team on the road in Fairfax. They used a 17-4 run in the final period to remain undefeated at 4-0

after falling behind 17-8 in the first quarter and trailing 36-30 at the end of the third following a 23-20 halftime deficit. Vanessa Laumbach led Woodbridge with 14 points on 5-for-7 field goal shooting, including 4-for-5 on 3-pointers. Camryn Platt-Morris added a double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds, while Aaliyah Pitts had 12 points and eight rebounds. Platt-Morris also had three assists, three steals and two blocks, while Rebecca Defelice had seven points and Adaija Bender had five rebounds with two blocks.

SECOND TO ONE

Freedom’s fabulous season ends as state runner-up By Noah Fleischman Special to the Times

The Freedom Eagles’ best football season in history ended Saturday with a 49-7 loss to Manchester during the Class 6 state championship game at Hampton University. They hoped to become the first Prince William County football team to win a state title since Osbourn in 2006 (Class 6), but they instead suffered their most lopsided loss since Oct. 5, 2012, when Hylton beat them 60-7 during a 1-9 Freedom season. Regardless, the Eagles ended this fall with a 13-2 record and numerous program records. For the first time in history, they amassed more than 11 wins in a season, won a region title (6C) and claimed a second consecutive district championship (Cardinal). They also tied for their longest winning streak in history at 11 games while improving their playoff record to 5-5 after entering this season at only 1-4. Plus, they gave Prince William County only its fourth state finalist over the past 13 years (Osbourn in 2008, Woodbridge in 2007). “There’s nothing to be ashamed off,” Freedom senior lineman Josh

Running back Tyquan Brown helped the Freedom Eagles compose their deepest playoff run in football history.

Fuga said. “We built this whole program from scratch. … We made history that nobody can take away from us. We have nothing to hang our heads on.” Fuga helped lead an Eagles defense that allowed fewer than 18 points per game for the second consecutive season. Manchester, however, scored nearly 50 points against them Saturday despite leading only 21-7 at halftime. During the first possession of the second half, Freedom marched down the field to Manchester’s 5-yard line on 13 plays. So the Eagles had momentum for the first time since early in the first quarter, but a rushing touchdown was called back due to a holding penalty. Then kicker Alpha Sow missed a

22-yard field goal attempt, so the momentum swung back to the Lancers. The Eagles also failed to score on two possessions inside of Manchester’s 20yard line during the first half after their special teams unit set them up with good field position. The Lancers “do a good job at not giving up points in the red zone,” Freedom coach Darryl Overton said. “It was hard to get the momentum back after we missed the field goal. Then they got a big play.” Manchester used a five-play drive to take a 28-7 lead with quarterback Brendon Clark throwing a 32-yard touchdown pass to Colin Harding. Then KJ McNeil threw a touchdown pass

by catching the ball from Clark and launching it 22 yards for Harding after a long punt return by the Lancers. Harding finished with four receptions for 86 yards and those two touchdowns. “I don’t think we ever lost confidence,” Overton said. But “they smothered us with the big plays.” Clark finished with 205 yards and two touchdowns on 11-for-18 passing while rushing for 118 yards, including a 79-yard touchdown in the second quarter, on 10 carries. Freedom quarterback Quest Powell, meanwhile, finished with 58 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions on 10-for-25 passing. The Eagles’ lone score came midway through the first quarter as Powell found Jason Hawkins for a 15-yard touchdown pass. Freedom struggled to establish a run game as neither star Tyquan Brown nor Julian Edwards were completely healthy. Brown, who sprained his shoulder last week and missed most of the Eagles’ state semifinal win, finished Saturday with 11 carries for 45 yards. The Eagles punted six times but recovered a muff by the Lancers in the first quarter to set up their lone touchdown. Freedom’s special teams unit also recovered the opening kickoff after Manchester’s return man failed to control the ball.

A ‘once-in-a-lifetime thing’: Dumfries resident competes on ‘Jeopardy!’ By Aileen M. Streng Contributing Writer

Mary Kate Moriarty has been watching “Jeopardy!” since she was a little girl and remembers watching with her grandmother. “When we would go to my grandmother’s house, you could not talk to her until the show was over,” said Moriarty, a dentist from the Dumfries area. Moriarty’s mother is the same way. “Sometimes we will talk about it, about some of the quirkier guests that were on it.” To this day, she watches it every day and feels she is pretty good at it. The producers of Jeopardy appear to agree. Moriarty will be a contestant on the game show airing Thursday on WJLA, and channel. “It’s kind of like winning the lottery because 80,000 people take the online test each year but they only need 400 contestants so that is a big whittling down, she said. Moriarty had taken “Jeopardy!’s” online test a few times over the years. “It’s a fun show and I would take the test just to see if I was good enough to be on it,” she said. When she took it in the spring, she was contacted by producers to tryout in Philadelphia where she took another test and auditioned on a mock show. If they like you as a contestant, they put you in a contestant pool until they have an opening. Moriarty’s opportunity came in October and she traveled to Los Angeles for the taping on Halloween. Being on set playing the game is far different from playing it at home, she said. “When you are at home, you answer them all but when it’s in person, it’s different,” she said. “You have

The episode of the game show featuring Moriarty as a contestant airs Thursday, Dec. 13 on WJLA. people looking at you and judging if you are a good personality type.” It is a bit nerve-wracking, Moriarty said. “There is a quick pace to the show and before you know it, it’s going and you have to keep up,” she said. Moriarty described “Jeopardy!” host of more than 30 years Alex Trebeck as very smart. “He knows how to pace the show. He’s very gracious in answering questions from the audience during commercial breaks,” she said. He’s just as you would imagine him. He’s been doing it a long time and is very good at it.”

Moriarty will gather with friends Thursday at a watch party but she said she is not excited to actually watch herself. “It’s like if you’ve ever heard a recording of yourself. You think, “Do I really sound like that?” I will be thinking, ‘Do I really look like that?’ she said. “I know the outcome but people don’t,” she said, and she is not allowed to reveal anything about the show until it airs. “I have just been telling people to stay tuned and watch “Jeopardy!” Dec. 13 and you will see,” she said.

“Honestly though, there are parts of it I don’t remember because I was in the zone,” she said. “It will be interesting to see how I did.” “It was a lot more fun than I thought it would be. The staff and the crew were so nice. They run it like a well-oiled machine,” Moriarty said. “It was such a unique experience, a once-in-a-lifetime thing. Being such a longtime fan of the show, it’s hard to believe it really happened.” Reach Aileen Streng at news@ fauquier.com

Woodbridge resident wins Miss Virginia USA title Courtney Lynne Smits of Woodbridge was recently crowned Miss Virginia USA. Morgan Brooke Duty from Lebanon, Virginia. was crowned Miss Virginia Teen USA. Smits attends Marymount University. She is a psychological operations specialist in the Army Reserves. Smits’ parents were in the Army, and she grew up in Georgia before moving to Northern Virginia. “When my mom was transferred to Fort Belvoir as a Department of the

Army civilian, I decided to join her in order to finish school and get my career started as well as help care for my grandmother,” Smit said in a message. “As Miss Virginia USA, my most important accomplishment would be not only work with the organizations that are affiliated with the Miss Universe Organization, but to also bring my platform of supporting wounded and homeless veterans to both the Miss USA and Miss Universe stage to increase global awareness of this issue,” she said.

The last zap In July I was diagnosed with breast cancer, specifically DCIS. Ductal carcinoma in situ means the cells that line the milk ducts of the breast have become cancerous, but they have not spread into surrounding breast tissue.   I was very fortunate as DCIS is considered non-invasive or pre-invasive breast cancer.   I penned a column in early August sharing my reaction to the news and that I would be undergoing a lumpectomy soon and most likely radiation treatments after that.  I made the decision to go public with a personal health issue in a straightforward commentary to share what I learned with others as it was all pretty new information for me.   Several who read the column reached out to me over the following weeks. Many shared their own stories of dealing with cancer, offering encouragement, prayers and well wishes. All were very positive. It was very gratifying to receive these messages – most of them from women whom I didn’t know.

Cancer started the communication.

Now, as we approach Christmas, I can report that all is well, but I have more to share.  After the surgery had a chance to heal, radiation treatments started. The most uncomfortable part is getting measured for the procedure. Not painful but awkward as you get pricked–pinhead-size tattoos—and literally marked in felt pen. Think of registry marks on your body.  The radiation treatments were daily, five days a week skipping the weekends, at a set time each day. There were 21 of them, so roughly a month.  My husband Don drove me there every day like clockwork. Looking back, I think it may have been harder on him than me. I was in, then out; it doesn’t take long. For him, the lobby was usually full of other patients, some of them receiving radiation, others chemotherapy. It is sobering.  I usually saw the same two technicians daily. They were very professional and very caring. There was one day that I found myself teary…I think it’s the vulnerability thing. You have to trust unconditionally.   I asked how many patients they see each day. The answer was from 25-35. That is sobering.  I gained a few pounds during October. A side benefit of getting these treatments is that a couple a times a week my husband and I would stop for breakfast before he dropped me off at work. Pancakes and sausages, cups of coffee, gentle conservations…it was all part of a healing process. I see that now and while I grimace at extra pounds, I wouldn’t trade our new favorite comfort food restaurant and our time together.  Thanksgiving was heavenly. It took me several days to recover from the cooking marathon but sitting down at the table with my family and now three grandbabies was

a cherished moment. Curiously, having and surviving cancer is a gift. It is a gift of perspective. It affords a new window on the world.   It becomes crystal clear what your priorities are and what you value. There are so many battlefields that aren’t worth dying on – workplace drama or that parking spot the other guy gets or that remark that you took as personal…the list goes on and on.   My surgeon was part of a larger group of doctors headed by Dr. John P. Williams near Gainesville. During the process, I learned of his series of videos,

FROM WHERE I SIT ANITA SHERMAN a cancer course of sorts, where he describes the various procedures patients may encounter. Williams is a leader in breast cancer patient education and an advocate for patient involvement in their cancer care decisions. If you or a family member or friend are dealing with breast cancer, visit www.breastcancercourse.org.  My last radiation treatment was Oct. 29. I follow up with my surgeon

and the radiologist in the next year. I’m feeling good.   I am very fortunate. My blessings far outweigh my burdens. There was a team approach to my care and certainly a team approach to healing and recovery.   For all of you who reached out, thank you. For me, it will indeed be a merry Christmas.   Anita Sherman is community editor at the Fauquier Times asherman@fauquier.com

A new life for mother’s silver via ‘upcycling’ By Vicky Moon

Contributing Writer

The art or practice of upcycling is defined as “creative re-use.” As I began writing about this subject, I realized I’ve been practicing the concept for years. There are websites devoted to it, including upcyclethat.com. The ideas are fascinating and endless, from transforming an old chair into a garden ornament to finding new uses for old chandeliers or old bird cages.  I started upcycling ages ago with a horse-show trophy that used to be a silver-plated champagne ice bucket. It worked as the perfect water bowl for my beloved Old English sheepdog Sudsy.  Most guests to my then-cottage at St. Bride’s Farm in Upperville were amused.  Some were mortified. “How could you?” they asked.  Two reasons:  I didn’t have to refill it as often and the height was such that he didn’t have to bend his head down to drink, a current trend in canine consumption. My late mother had a beautiful set of sterling silver from Towle in the pattern of Old Lace. She cherished it, as I do now. Each time I open the Pacific Silvercloth®-lined wooden box, the same familiar smell takes me back to when I “helped” her set the table for holidays and dinner parties.  It was a lesson in placement: the knife edges facing in, the series of spoons or forks progressing from outside-in, according to what is served first.  And then there’s the bread plate. This goes to the top left of the dinner plate at about 11 o’clock. The butter-spreader is placed on a diagonal across the top of the plate with the handle to the right and the edge facing down.  I recently gathered the butter spreaders -- not to be confused with the butter knife, which is used to cut the stick into pieces as it’s passed or served.  The spreaders are small and smooth. I held one to my wrist and the bells and whistles went off.  They’re still lovely but have remained unused for years. Would these possibly translate to cuff bracelets for three special little girls in my family?  I sent a note to Erin Driver at Warrenton Jewelers. Would they be able to do the up-cycling? Her husband, Jim Driver, is a master goldsmith and did a charming makeover. “He heated the silver to extremely high heat to make it bendable, then formed it into a cuff bracelet,” Erin Driver said. The gifts are wrapped and ready.  Next, I could use some ideas on how to upscale a slew of seafood forks. Any suggestions? Reach Vicky Moon at Vickyannmoon@aol.com

WATERFRONT OASIS ON THE OCCOQUAN

Ask the Arborist

Todd Hagadone Jr. I.S.A. Certified Arborist

Why do people prune trees?

People commonly prune trees to remove dead branches, remove crowded or rubbing limbs, or to eliminate hazards. Trees also are pruned to increase light and air penetration to the inside of the tree’s crown or to surrounding landscape. In most cases, trees are pruned as a corrective or preventative measure to reduce weight on heavy limbs or to encourage the appropriate branch structure to reduce branch breakage in the future. Since each cut has the potential to change the growth of the tree, no branch should be removed without a reason. With this in mind, proper structural pruning of young trees is typically of the best value. When to prune Most routine pruning to remove weak, diseased, or dead limbs can be done at any time of the year. But growth is maximized and wound closure is fastest if pruning occurs before the spring growth flush - when trees have just expended a great deal of energy to produce foliage and early shoot growth. Heavy pruning immediately after growth flush can stress the tree. Avoid pruning during active disease transmission periods. A few tree diseases, such as Oak Wilt and Dutch Elm Disease, can be spread when pruning wounds allow spores or insects to access a tree. Pruning large trees can be dangerous - it usually involves working above the ground and using power equipment. Ensure your safety, and that of your trees, by hiring a professional arborist.
