The Langley player got fouled but then she kicked the West Potomac player getting up, and earned a technical, her fourth foul. Shortly thereafter, another Langley senior intentionally shoved the same West Potomac player and picked up her fourth foul.
That's some excellent sportsmanship (sarcasm).....glad those fouls got called and the girls fouled out.
They didn't foul out. They picked up their fourth fouls in the third quarter and then sat out the rest of the quarter. West Potomac outscored Langley 23-3 in the third quarter to erase the 15-point lead that the Saxons had at half time.
The refs called a close, but fair, game. If the two Langley seniors had kept their composure, the outcome might have been different. Still, they did win the district and region. They just didn't progress as far at the state tournament as some had expected.
Realistically, probably no one is going to beat Osbourn Park this year. They beat Manchester, last year's Class 6 champion, by over 20 points in February, and also beat Thomas Dale, which beat them in the semi-finals last year, earlier in the season. They are on another level.
