     It was a perfect fall day for field hockey at Washington College to be enjoyed by players and fans alike.   Chesapeake-AA won their first ever state title in the Class 3A match-up while Hereford prevailed in Class 2A for a three-peat and their ninth overall crown.  In Class 1A, Liberty posted a shutout for their third title and first in 34 years while South River also rolled to a shutout for their fifth crown.  At the day's end, the South River Seahawks were also awarded the tournament Sportsmanship Award -- well done ladies!  Select from the links below to view the complete brackets for each of the four classifications.

    Our thanks go out to the State Field Hockey Committee led by Director Phyllis Hemmes for the extra time and effort that goes into organizing and running the region tournaments, State Semifinals, and State Finals. Thanks too to all of our State Tournament workers for their contributions in making our Saturday Finals such a successful endeavor.  We are also indebted to our State Semifinal host sites and the Athletic Directors and staff members at Paint Branch and Broadneck High Schools.  Finally, our sincere appreciation to Washington College and their athletic department staff for the first rate cooperation and assistance provided to us.  Thank you for allowing us to hold our State Finals on your campus and for always making us feel welcomed there.  We hope to see everyone there next year -- dream big!
