Leesburg (Oct. 1, 2006) – The Stone Bridge girls cross country team staked their claim as Loudoun’s top team Saturday with a 10th place showing at the mega-field Oatlands Invitational.
Lake Braddock captured the girls varsity “A” race with 112 points followed by Langley (193), Westfield (226), Brooke Point (234) and University (250) to round out the top five. University senior Amber Riley won the varsity “A” race with a 19:03.37 time on the 5K course.
Stone Bridge showed its depth with five runners all finishing under 21:33: junior Casey Henderson (20:32.65) 41st, senior Monica DuPree (21:18.77) 66th, sophomore Stephanie Paradis (21:28.56) 80th, junior Emily King (21:29.89) 82nd and sophomore Cara Fossum (21:32.78) 83rd.

The Panthers posted the best Loudoun-based time of the day with freshman Christina Lee continuing her fine season with a 20:02.00 in the freshman race.
Other area athletes to run sub-21:00 times were Dominion junior Becky Misanin (20:13.31), Heritage freshman Hannah McLaughlin (20:24.39) and Loudoun County freshman Julie Strange (20:42.59).
