From high school to Harvard, Yale and UVA Top grads reflect on how their school years shaped their future paths By Kate Seltzer

Contributing Writer

Students in Prince William County’s class of 2024 began their high school careers online in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This week, they walk across the stage and embark on their journeys to college and beyond. Students from Gar-Field, Colgan, Osbourn Park and Potomac High Schools reflected on the last four years and prepared themselves for what’s next. They are headed off to Harvard, Yale, UVA and Northeastern and are working toward careers in intelligence, law, global health and finance.

Gar-Field H.S. grad to attend Harvard on an ROTC scholarship

TIMES STAFF PHOTO/FLORENCE SHEN

From a young age, Gar-Field High School graduating senior Anjali Marcia Ghafoerkhan had big dreams of one day working for the CIA or the FBI. “I had childhood asthma, so it didn’t actually seem like a possibility,” Ghafoerkhan laughed. “Then I grew out of it.” Today, that dream is one step closer to a reality.

Peter Mitchell receives his diploma during the Potomac High School commencement on Friday, May 31. In the fall, Ghafoerkhan will attend Harvard University on a Navy ROTC scholarship, which stipulates that she major in computer science and serve at least four years on active duty in the U.S. Marine Corps after graduation. If she has the time, Ghafoerkhan also hopes to get a second concen-

tration in political science. “I’m still over the moon,” she said. “I still can’t believe it. It feels like I’m in a movie.” Ghafoerkhan’s love of cryptography comes from media like the movie “Imitation Game” and the nonfiction book “Code Name: Lise.” Her love of politics comes, in part, from her family. “My parents, when I was younger, were very adamant about bedtime,” she said. “The only times that they would let (my siblings and me) stay up was for the State of the Union.” While in high school, Ghafoerkhan was heavily involved in the school’s JROTC program, where she served as the cadet battalion operations officer and the cadet battalion commander. She says the experience taught her people skills, like balancing the emotional needs of cadets with existing responsibilities. She also learned the importance of being adaptable — a tough lesson for the self-described planner and perfectionist. “One of the very first things you learn is no plan survives first impact,” she said. “As much work as you put into it, it will never completely go according to plan, and so you always have to think on your feet.” See TOP GRADS, page 2

Roadside grad caps ‘show the school really cares about us’ Nokesville tradition honoring Brentsville High grads is a community effort

15-year-old killed, 3 others wounded

Devan Waghray, 17, says he’s looked forward for years to seeing his name posted on along Fitzwater Drive. “Seeing my name up there is a congratulations and also a recognition of all the work we put in to get to this point,” said Waghray, who will attend William & Mary in the fall to study history. Since 2016, Brentsville District High School and the surrounding community have come together to honor members of each graduating class with individual mortarboard plaques posted along Nokesville’s main drag. Each is personalized with the name of a graduating senior. This year, they made 223 for every member of Brentsville District High’s class of 2024. The annual display shows how much the Nokesville community cares about Brentsville students and recognizes their accomplishments, said graduating senior Aidan Par-

tridge, 17, of Manassas, who will study business management at the University of South Carolina this fall. The effort to make the graduation cap plaques is coordinated each year by Katherine Meints, principal of Brentsville District High School. The bulk of the work is done by the school’s technology and art teachers, who figure out how many caps

are needed, purchase the materials, cut the mortarboard shapes out of plywood and then paint and write the graduates’ names on each one, Meints said. The goal is to have them posted on Fitzwater about two weeks before graduation, she said.

A 17-year-old has been arrested and charged with murder in connection with a fatal shooting late Monday night that killed a 15-year-old boy and left three others wounded. Police announced the arrest on Wednesday, June 5. The suspect, whose name is not being released because he is a juvenile, is being held at the Prince William County Juvenile Detention Center, according to Master Police Officer Renee Carr, a spokeswoman for Prince William County police. The police investigation determined that the shooter allegedly fired his weapon toward five teens and young men, striking four of them. The 15-year-old victim was shot in the chest. His name has not been released because of his age, Carr said in an earlier news release.

From high school to Harvard, Yale and UVA

In the fall, Yilekal plans to start a Blooming Abeba chapter at the University of Virginia, where she intends on studying global health. “I wanted to do something similar (to Blooming Adeba) in the future as a career,” she said. “I just felt like the global health track was calling my name.” At Osbourn Park High, Yilekal was also involved with the school’s multicultural nights and hopes to get involved with similar extracurriculars in college. “I want to be involved in (UVA’s) East African Association, where we can organize dances and stay close with people from my culture,” she said. Yilekal was also one of the 11 students in Virginia to receive the Harry F. Byrd Jr. Leadership Award.

TOP GRADS, from page 1 Despite her preparedness, the decision to become a Marine wasn’t an entirely easy one, Ghafoerkhan said. “It was kind of a whirlwind of, ‘Am I saying no to the Marine Corps because it’s legitimately not for me? Or am I saying no to the Marine Corps because I’m afraid?’” she said. “So, eventually, I came to the conclusion that if I did not go and at least serve for four years, I would regret that for the rest of my life.” Ghafoerkhan was a United States Youth Ambassador to Belize through a program sponsored by the State Department and run by Georgetown University in affiliation with the organization World Learning. Additionally, she was one of just 11 students in Virginia to receive the Harry F. Byrd Jr. Leadership Award.

Colgan High School grad to study at Yale University

Despite a virtual start to high school, Tatiyana Kauo hit the ground running. “I was full throttle even freshman year, trying to do as much as I can to beef up my high school resumé and try to collect all those essential high school experiences,” Kauo said. If she had to do it again, she said, “I would tell myself to just chill out, slow down. You’re going to get there eventually. It’ll be fine.” Kauo took part in all of the spirit days and homecoming dances, as well as being involved in activities like debate. “Well, some would say I just like to argue,” Kauo said. “I just love debate because you get to learn about so many random niche topics — like you get to be a mini expert on so many random things.” In the fall, Kauo will attend Yale University and plans to major in political science, sociology or both. “I kind of wanted to do political science throughout my high school career, mostly because I have an interest in politics, and I want to be a lawyer. That’s kind of the typical law school pipeline,” she said. The interest in sociology is newer, Kauo said, stemming from a summer sociology class at Radford University and a research class at Colgan High School, where she wrote about how sociological theory applied to the Barbie movie. “Basically, it was about how when men feel their masculinity is threatened; they respond with over-acts of masculinity,” Kauo said. Kauo said she’s a little worried about the dis-

15-year-old dies, 3 injured, in Dumfries shooting SHOOTING, from page 1 The shooting is believed to have stemmed from a previous fight and an ongoing dispute among the young men, Carr said. The shooting occurred just before 10:30 p.m. in the 3700 block of Masthead Trail, a residential street in the Port-O-Dumfries neighborhood in the Triangle area of Dumfries. The group was gathered in a grassy area in the back of a strip of homes when multiple shots were fired, according to police. The group dispersed as officers arrived. Officers from Prince William County and the Town of Dumfries initially located and provided first aid to two of the victims found at the scene. Fire and rescue personnel transported both to area hospitals, where

Marakie Yilekal grew up hearing her mom talk about health disparities in Ethiopia, including “period poverty,” or the lack of access to menstrual products. As a first-generation Ethiopian American, Yilekal decided to do something about it. Alongside two friends, she started the organization “Blooming Abeba.” “It got much larger than I thought,” Yilekal said. “My friends and I started with some church fundraisers and events, and we raised over $5,000 in our first few fundraisers.” Today, there are chapters of Blooming Abeba in other states, including Maryland and Georgia, and the group has partnered with the Caleb Foundation to help disperse more than 1,000 reusable pads to girls at three schools in Addis Ababa, the Ethiopian capital. Yilekal said the experience taught her valuable leadership skills. “A lot of the time, people don’t really take you seriously as a high schooler,” she said. “I feel like it’s important to stand up and use your voice and be confident in what you have to say. I got used to that through this.”

the 15-year-old later died from his injuries, Carr said. The three other victims — 16-yearold, 18-year-old and 20-year-old males — are expected to survive, Carr said. The 16-year-old suffered a graze wound and was found by police near the shooting during a search of the area. One of the adult male victims was driven to the hospital, Carr said. Dumfries Mayor Derrick Wood issued a statement Tuesday saying the violence “has deeply affected our community.” Wood said he is looking into possible steps his town might take to combat shootings, such as gunshot detection devices placed in known trouble spots or stepped-up police patrols. The shootings took place near the community where five juveniles were shot in early 2023, leading to the death of a 3-year-old girl. A 20-year-old Washington, D.C., man, the boyfriend of one of the victims, was charged with murder in connection with those shootings and is still awaiting trial.

Peter Mitchell is getting an unusual start to his college career. Though he will be attending Northeastern University, he’ll spend his first semester abroad studying finance in Lisbon, Portugal, through the school’s study abroad program. “I was hesitant to commit to that school at first, because I was a bit nervous,” he said. “I talked to a few students there who were in the (study abroad program), and they said they acclimated pretty well when they returned to Boston in January. So, that kind of eased my worries.” Mitchell transferred to Potomac High School his junior year for basketball, which he previously played at Bishop Ireton High School and Saint Stephen’s and Saint Agnes School. “Going to Potomac was a great choice, as opposed to staying in private school, both for basketball and academic life,” he said. “The teachers are very personable, which is great, and it’s very diverse. I met people from all backgrounds.” Mitchell has played basketball his whole life, and he intends to continue to play in college at a club or recreational level. “I thought I wanted to play in college, but as I grew older, it was pretty rigorous coming back from practice and doing all my homework for (Advanced Placement) classes,” he said. “I just decided; I think I want to focus on school in college. And I also want to go abroad, and I couldn’t have done that if I played college basketball.” At Northeastern, Mitchell hopes to get involved with extracurriculars related to his major, like investment club, as well as with cultural affiliation clubs. He said he’s on the lookout for a Filipino basketball club, like his brother participates in at Boston University. “I’m just excited to grow as a person,” he said. “It’s going to be neat to see where I end up, and I want to meet new people of course. It’s just very exciting, this whole process.”

Wood said Tuesday he is frustrated by the violence and that teens apparently have easy access to guns. It’s not yet clear what kind of weapon was used in the shootings or how the 17-year-old got possession of

it. Police have not yet secured the weapon, Carr said Wednesday. “Why did they have guns? Why is it that these young people have to go from having an argument to shooting someone?” Wood said.

Prince William teachers win paid family leave in latest round of bargaining By Jill Palermo Managing Editor

Prince William County teachers will have six weeks of paid maternity or paternity leave starting next school year under an amendment to the staff contract announced last week. The paid family leave will be a first for Prince William County schools. Currently, teachers and staff who become new parents can take 12 weeks off through short-term disability and the federal Family and Medical Leave Act. But the time off is mostly without pay. They can use sick leave during their time off — if they have accumulated any — and were sometimes eligible for disability pay. But disability pays only 60% of staff salaries and kicks in only after the 20th day of leave. Now, the school division will pay the full salaries of both birthing and non-birthing parents for six weeks, and employees will be eligible for another six weeks of leave for which they can apply for disability pay. Maggie Hansford, president of the Prince William Education Association, the local teacher and staff union, said she and the other union leaders are “ecstatic” about the new paid family leave benefit. “There have been employees who had to take out loans to go on (family) leave,” Hansford said. “It’s been such a financial burden for teachers in Prince William County to have a baby.” Teachers and staff won the paid family leave benefit during the latest round of negotiations on the staff contract. The two sides returned to the bargaining table in April as a result of an unfair labor practice complaint the Prince William Education Association filed last fall. The union alleged that the school division negotiators failed to act in good faith with regard to talks over staff pay, benefits and other issues. The complaint went to an arbitrator, who is-

Prince William Education Association President Maggie Hansford. sued a ruling in March that agreed with the union regarding negotiations on benefits. However, the arbitrator ruled in favor of the school division on teacher and staff pay, saying that issue was not open to further negotiation because of budget constraints. The union initially sought staff raises of 17% to match recent raises awarded to both Prince William County police officers and firefighters. The school division granted only 6% raises for the 2024-25 school year, with slightly higher bumps of up to 9% for teachers with more years of experience. Negotiators for both the school division and

staff met several times in April to discuss family leave benefits, as well as pay for certain duties that require teachers to work past their contract times. Those duties are typically tied to staffing after-school athletic events, Hansford said. In addition to the six weeks of paid family leave, teachers and staff will be paid $13.50 an hour for those after-school and evening assignments. They will also have three days of paid bereavement leave and will be allowed to take five personal days of leave each school year, up from three, Hansford said. Hansford called the extra-duty pay “not great” but said it acknowledges that teachers and staff were required to work the extra assignments for no extra pay — unlike police officers, who are often paid overtime to provide security at middle and high school games. In a statement, both the Prince William County School Board chairman, Dr. Babur Lateef, and Superintendent LaTanya McDade said the school division celebrates the additional staff benefits. “In addition to our competitive salaries and benefits package, Prince William County Schools is excited to offer additional leave and support to our staff, reaffirming our commitment to ensure (the school division) is the best place to work for our educators,” Lateef said. Hansford said the additional benefits are a win for teachers and staff who fought more than two years to win collective bargaining rights and to negotiate their first-ever contract. The contract is good for three years, but teacher and staff salaries can be negotiated every year, Hansford said. “These benefits can help retain and recruit teachers, so we don’t have these thousands of vacancies in our schools,” Hansford said. “Having that many vacancies does impact students and staff.” Reach Jill Palermo at jpalermo@fauquier.com

Members of Brentsville High’s class of 2024 practice tossing their caps into the air ahead of their May 31 graduation ceremony.

Roadside grad caps ‘show the school really cares about us’ CAPS, from page 1 “I’ve heard from so many people about the emotions they experience as they drive down Fitzwater and see every student’s name,” Meints said. “The most reported emotion is pride.” Students may decorate their own mortarboards, though few do, Meints said. But Nia Gray, 17, and Bradley Jaynes, 18, of Nokesville, relished the opportunity to decorate their caps so they would stand out, they said. Gray, who plans to study criminology at Northern Virginia Community College this fall, painted yellow dangling stars on her cap. She said the caps “are important because it shows that the school really cares about us.” Jaynes, 18, of Nokesville, said he decorated his mortarboard to “express his love of music.” He said the mortarboard display is a “symbol of moving on.” Jaynes plays several instruments and will study both music and cybersecurity at Northern Virginia Community College in the fall. The graduation cap tradition is an extension of an effort that started years ago to celebrate Brentsville District High School’s football team, Meints said. Now, members of nearly every Brentsville varsity team are honored with plaques adorned with their names during their respective sport seasons. The telephone poles display miniature footballs, basketballs,

soccer balls, baseballs, softballs, volleyballs and lacrosse sticks — each showing an individual athlete’s name — all year long. The plaques are sponsored by parent groups, Meints said. In 2016, Julia Hannon, who was class president at the time, came up with the idea for the graduation caps display, Meints said. Hannon led the effort with help from teacher and project sponsor Ellie Casterline and retired career and technical education teacher Mark Smaltz. Each year, graduates can pick up their mortarboard by the end of June. Any not picked up are repurposed for the next year, Meintz said. Jackson Fleischauer, 18, said he’s always looked forward to the day he would see his name on a graduation cap. “It shows how close Brentsville High School is with our local community and symbolizes our accomplishment,” he said. Fleischauer is heading to the Colorado School of Mines this fall to study chemical engineering. Similarly, Elizabeth Funderburg, 18, of Nokesville, said she is “honored” to see her name on a cap. She plans to study biomedical sciences at Liberty University this fall. “Growing up in Nokesville, I’ve seen seniors’ names up on Fitzwater for years, and so my name finally being up here is continuing a legacy that I am now a part of,” she said.

Jackleg is doing pizza Detroit-style in Vint Hill Husband-and-wife team sets up shop next to Old Bust Head By Ashley Simpson Contributing Writer

There is so much more to pizza than cheese, sauce and dough. In the U.S., regional pizza styles engender strong loyalties and can stoke hot debates. For Gina and Nathan Rivas, the pizza aficionados who opened Jackleg Pizza Company in Vint Hill in February, choosing the pizza styles to offer was a delicate question of market, taste and a lot of obsessive research. They landed on three unique regional styles of pizza to feature: Detroit, Chicago Tavern and New York. “No other nearby independent pizza places offer Detroit-style pizza,” Gina Rivas said. “We understand that pizza is a saturated market, so offering something a little different gave us a little something that set us apart right off the bat.” The pair are veterans of the local food scene, having run a restaurant in Culpeper and a pizza food truck, but perfecting the art of pizza-making took time. “If I told you the number of pizza cookbooks we have, how many places we have gone to eat pizza and how many YouTube videos we have watched learning to make different types of pizza, you wouldn’t believe it,” Gina Rivas said. “It’s Nathan’s obsession, and I’ve always loved to bake bread, so pizza made a lot of sense for us as we were looking to find success in the restaurant business.” A Detroit-style pizza will be a unique taste for those who aren’t already fans, she said. “Detroit style is the cousin of the Sicilian or ‘grandma pie’ and is a focaccia-like dough, cooked in a deep steel pan — though it is very different from ‘deep dish,’” Gina Rivas said. “Cheddar is spread around the edges to create a super crunchy crust, aged mozzarella goes in the middle, and there are two stripes of sauce on top followed by toppings. It has crunchy edges, a fluffy interior, and it’s lovely.” For now, Jackleg is a carry-out business, but it does serve pizza for sit-in customers at neighboring Old Bust Head Brewing. “The reception has been wonderful,” Gina Rivas said. “We opened with really good numbers, and they’ve only gotten better. We’ve gotten some really good professional reviews, too.” Jackleg didn’t start out as a pizza place. It first launched as Jackleg Sandwich Company in 2019 in Culpeper. Before opening the first version of Jackleg, Nathan was running a pizza kitchen, and Gina was

Nathan Rivas spent hours reading cookbooks and researching pizza making before the launch of Jackleg Pizza. a bartender, promoter and event coordinator for local bars. The two were friendly acquaintances when Nathan approached Gina about opening a restaurant. “We dreamed up a sandwich shop with craft cocktails,” Gina Rivas said. “We menu-tested with our network and built our branding during the beginning months of the pandemic, and we got an opportunity to actually bring it to fruition in September of 2020. It was not ideal timing, but we jumped on it with hubris.” They spent more than two years getting a crash course in everything they thought they knew about restaurants, but didn’t. “I can honestly say we threw everything at the wall with Jackleg 1.0,” Gina Rivas said. “I think we confused people. At one point, we were a sandwich place that had $20 top-shelf cocktails, hand-rolled pastas, and on Mondays, we had from scratch ramen and bao.” Along the way, their personal relationship evolved: Gina and Nathan fell in love and got married. The partners in life and work then turned to pizza. “I really missed making pizza, so I was incred-

ibly excited to return to it,” Nathan Rivas said. “I feel just as much excitement each time a pizza comes out as when I started, and I feel the product has come a long way since my start.” As Jackleg began to make a name for itself as a mobile pizza kitchen, the owner of the Farm Station Shopping Center suggested they move into one of the center’s empty buildings. Three weeks later, they ditched the full-time wheels life and were in business in Vint Hill. “It’s a great location; the fact that we can offer table service to Old Bust Head is a huge bonus,” Gina Rivas said. “It’s an area that I think is on a development upswing, and I hope that our little group of businesses can become a sort of ‘downtown’ for Vint Hill.” A bigger footprint is also coming soon. “There will definitely be an expansion in the next six months,” Gina Rivas said. “We will be expanding into a second unit of space, and, then, we will add dining. Other additions may come, too, but it’ll all be about giving people a great experience. If feeding people is a love language, it’s ours.”

What kinds of pizza styles can you get in and around Prince William County? Pizza is an Italian invention but an American innovation. As it spread across the country in the mid-20th century, different regional styles developed with their unique take on the tomato pie. Here are some of the different pizza styles you can find within 30 minutes of Manassas. Chicago style: Unos (Manassas), Jackleg (Vint Hill) There are two distinct types of Chicago style pizza — thin “cracker” crust and deep dish. The cracker crust is thin and crispy. Sometimes called “tavern style,” it can also come piled with toppings. Deep dish or “stuffed” Pizza is cooked in a deep pan with thick crust and tons of cheese. Usually, the toppings are in the middle of the pizza rather than on top. Detroit style: Jackleg Pizza (Vint Hill) Detroit style pizza is best known for its square

shape and thicker, crunchier crust with typically more cheese than other pizza styles. New York Style: Valentino’s (Haymarket), Tony’s (Manassas), Vinny’s (Manassas), Benny Capolago’s (Manassas). New York style pizza is recognizable for its large slices, thin crust and heavy dose of grease. A true New York slice is so big and floppy you may have to fold it in half to eat it. Maryland style: Ledo’s (Manassas, Gainesville) Is this a thing? Fans are trying to make Marylandfounded Ledo’s unique flavor the DMV’s contribution to regional American pizza styles. Ledo’s is known for its flaky crust, square cut, sweet sauce and smoked provolone cheese. Sicilian Pizza: Carini’s (Nokesville) ), Tony’s (Manassas).

It’s a thick sliced, pizza with distinctly doughy crust usually in a rectangular shape. Greek Pizza: Spitony (Warrenton) Greek pizza has a thicker crust, a coating of oil and may have different cheese mixtures and vegetable toppings than other pizzas. Brick oven: Craft and Crust (Remington) Brick oven pizza became popular over the last two decades and is known for the evenness of the crust that results from the high temperature cooking. It has a distinctly smoky flavor and bubbly crust and cheese. Artisan: Mosaic Pizza at Silver Branch Brewing (Warrenton), Mod Pizza (Gainesville) Artisan Pizza can be literally anything — a foodie delight in mixing flavors on a pizza crust, with or without cheese and traditional or novel toppings.

Catch the Red Wolves if you can Speedy Gar-Field boys soccer makes state semis for first time since 2006 By Matthew Proctor Staff Writer

Like a pair of explosive wide receivers running go routes, GarField’s Jefferson Lopez Coreas and Bethson Fuentes-Rau are a threat to score from anywhere on the field. In the Class 6 boys soccer quarterfinals against visiting Landstown on Tuesday, the fleet footed forwards had the Eagles’ back line chasing more than defending, using their supreme speed to run down long through balls from the midfield and leave the defense perpetually on the back foot. The Red Wolves created chance after chance but couldn’t find a goal throughout a scoreless first half, but that constant pressure eventually overwhelmed the Eagles as second half goals by Fuentes-Rau, Masoud Baig and Oman Akbari lifted GarField past Landstown 3-0. “When you play teams that you don’t see in your district or region, you got to put them on their heels,” Gar-Field coach Eber Martinez said. “Having Jeff and Bethson up there with that speed, it’s something else. By putting them on their heels, we put the pressure on them.” With the win, Gar-Field (20-1-1) advanced to the state semifinals for the first time since 2006, when they fell to Thomas Dale in the state final. The Red Wolves battle McLean (162-2) on Friday at 1:30 p.m. at Mills Godwin High in Richmond. Tuesday’s win marks another chapter in the Red Wolves’ breakout campaign. On top of reaching their first state semifinal in 18 years, Gar-Field claimed its first region title since 1981 in dramatically defeating Colgan 5-4 on penalty kicks in the May 31 title game. After falling in the region quarterfinals in each of the last two years, the Red Wolves have broken out in a big way. They enter the semifinals on an 18-game winning streak. “Whenever we click and everyone has the right mentality, we bring it on. And today everyone had the right mind to play, so we brought it,” said Lopez Coreas. “We want it this year.” Martinez said winning the region title was a big weight lifted off the Red Wolves’ shoulders. “(Colgan) put us on our heels, but these guys managed to stay in the game. After that win, I think today was a game where they were a little bit more relaxed,” Martinez said. Despite not scoring in the first half, Gar-Field set the tone with constant pressure applied by Lopez Coreas and Fuentes-Rau. The Red Wolves were quicker to break on the ball on defense and in the

midfield, resulting in frequent steals that were immediately played forward for Lopez Coreas or Fuentes-Rau to use their speed and dribbling abilities to get loose. “It’s a huge advantage, but I don’t just rely on them for their speed. I like for them to get the ball at their feet at times,” Martinez said. “Their speed is there, and if we’ve got to use them, we use them. If not, then we’ve got to make sure that we keep the ball and use their feet, because they are good at driving at players one-on-one as well.”

Lopez Coreas knows how dangerous he and Fuentes-Rau can be because of their rapid pace. “It gives (teams) a lot of trouble because they can’t catch up,” he said. Gar-Field finally broke through in the 49th minute when a Landstown handball in the box gave Lopez Coreas a penalty kick that he calmly rolled into the right side for a 1-0 lead. The Red Wolves added two more goals before the Eagles even attempted another shot, with Masoud Baig scoring a tap in on a Fuentes-Rau as-

sist in the 57th minute and Oman Akbari redirecting a hard-hit ball from Michael Villalta the 70th minute. A Landstown defender was issued a red card on the Red Wolves third goal. Moments later, the Eagles’ goalie received a red for a hard tackle on a Lopez Coreas breakaway. With a two-man advantage, GarField drained the final 10 minutes of the game to seal their 3-0 victory and advance to Friday’s semifinal against McLean. See SOCCER, page 11

Reese Natysin and the defending state champion Brentsville Tigers downed Tabb 2-0 in the Class 3 quarterfinals on Tuesday.

Second-half goals propel Brentsville girls into state semis By Matthew Proctor Staff Writer

One year after winning the Class 3 state championship, the Brentsville High girls soccer team is two wins from repeating. The Tigers (17-2-1) used second half goals from Reese Natysin and Peyton McGovern to down visiting Tabb 2-0 in Tuesday’s Class 3 quarterfinals. Brentsville advanced to play Wilson Memorial in Friday’s Class 3 semis Friday at Monticello High at 3 p.m. The state final is Saturday at 12:30 p.m. at Monticello. Tuesday’s win saw the Tigers compose themselves after a scoreless first half, much as they’d done in their previous game, a 1-0 victory over Fauquier in the Class 3 Region B championship. Riley French scored the game-winner against the Falcons with six minutes left. With the state quarterfinal win, Brentsville has won 15 of their last 16 games starting with their 1-0 victory over Fauquier on April 12. Brentsville coach Scott Kerns

says back-to-back titles would be an amazing feat for a team that lost a lot of talent. “Last year, I think at any moment of the season we felt we could win the state championship,” said Kerns. “We almost expected it. This year’s been a different story. With the kids that left the program, it’s taken a long time for the team to believe that we’re supposed to be at this point. “I think they’re starting to believe in themselves more.” Brentsville lost their top four forwards from last season, but the Tigers haven’t dropped off offensively with French, Natysin, senior Mary Kate Mills, sophomore Riley Coombs and freshman Emma Kerns getting the job done. Florida State-bound Peyton McGovern continues to shine in the midfield. The Class 3 Region B Player of the Year has 28 goals and 25 assists this season. “They’ve got a couple of special players that really make a difference,” said Fauquier coach Bryan Black.

We’re hiring! The Fauquier Times and The Prince William Times is seeking a talented and competitive inside multimedia advertising sales representative with the potential for growth into outside sales.

Gar-Field boys improve to 20-1-1

We hope to transform our advertising sales to be digital first, so this role provides an opportunity to work with our team and our customers. This role will help us invent new sales products that better connect our audience with products and services that fit their needs. The successful candidate will play a key role in this effort.

SOCCER, from page 10 “We got to play our game, but we also got to match the intensity,” said Martinez, a Gar-Field alum who started on the 2006 state runner-up squad and sees many similarities in the current Red Wolves. “I got to push them to their limit because I know how good they can be when they get pushed.” With a win on Friday, Gar-Field would face the Cosby (20-0)-Herndon (16-3) winner in the state final on Saturday at Mills Godwin High.

My daughter and me on her wedding day!

As an inside sales representative, you will play a fundamental role in achieving our ambitious customer acquisition and revenue growth objectives.

Collaboration for a cause

How Girl Scout cookies and puppies can boost business, help local nonprofits By Tyler Ross

Ross R eal Estate

In the bustling world of real estate, standing out from the competition often means thinking outside the box. There are over 35,000 real estate agents in Virginia and over 600 agents that sell properties in Fauquier County. Presently, with just 145 houses for sale in Fauquier, to earn opportunities for business means you need to stand out and capture the attention of home sellers and buyers. And remember, that’s just to earn the opportunity. It doesn’t guarantee the business. For that opportunity, to earn that listing or buying appointment, real estate agents have got to market and advertise like mad in hopes of being the one of 600 who a prospective buyer or seller wants to meet. You need to stand out. You’ve seen the marketing in action: billboards, license plates, wrapped cars, print ads in papers and magazines, online ads, videos, Tiktoks, mailers, business cards and more. As a result, many real estate agents are highly recognizable as their faces are everywhere. Everywhere. Given this level of advertising, we real estate agents become faces of our community. More often than not, the first friend newcomers have when they move to town is their real estate agent. Their agent connects the newcomer with their own favorite vendors, restaurants, happy hour spots and event spaces. We become a walking, local yellow pages for information not just to newbies, but longtime been-heres, too. We become small town “famous” and are a resource for, and can have influence on, everyone around us. Due to this influence, I call on my real estate agent friends to leverage your “fame.” Let me say first, so many of my peers do this already. They sit on boards, chambers and business and networking groups. They collect food for the hungry, clothing for the homeless, are dedicated shoppers at local businesses and volunteer their time and donate their money to amazing causes and community endeavors. Our local association even has a committee whose exclusive work is to benefit the community through giving. Beyond that, there’s an annual award for the community member of the year! If I was a betting man, and I am, I’d bet the real estate industry gives back to its community more than any industry. What I’d like to see though, is more blending of that altruism into the resources that go into marketing our personal businesses. At some point in the last few years, I acknowledged the unfathomable amount of money and time dedicated to advertising and branding that was serving only myself and my clients and the corporations I sent my money to. Paying Zillow for leads, paying Realtor.com for leads, paying Google for SEO … all of this was making me sick and taking me away from the activities I preferred: actually selling and buying homes for my friends and clients. I thought there had to be a way to make those bland marketing expenses feel less like a cost of doing business and make them more fun and productive. We’ve since gotten pretty creative. Our latest effort is one I’m particularly proud of and continues to inspire new ideas. We started a giveaway of 45 boxes of Girl Scout Cookies. To enter to win, a participant had to “like” the Ross Real Estate Facebook page, share the video we posted and make a donation from an Amazon

COURTESY

Tyler Ross, of Ross Real Estate, ran a promotion involving Girl Scout cookies and “Bruh,” a local rescue pup. The collaboration resulted in a sold home and wins for local Girl Scouts and the Fauquier County SPCA. Wish List to Fauquier’s SPCA. The results? Long and short, we spent $265 between cookies and ad spending, $40 to Facebook and $225 to the local Girl Scout troop. The video reached over 10,000 people in our community. Our post was shared 41 times, exposing both Ross Real Estate and the Fauquier SPCA to thousands of people outside our existing audiences but still inside our community. The community cleaned out the Amazon wishlist and donated nearly $2,000 in goods to the SPCA. Additionally, the effort sparked a new idea that you can see now on our Instagram or Facebook page. We borrowed a puppy from the SPCA and featured him in our latest house tour, leveraging our audience and home selling effort in hopes of also getting “Bruh,” a happy little pup, adopted. Be on the lookout for more of these! Don’t get me wrong, this is extremely self-serving. The more eyeballs on Ross Real Estate, the more opportunities we get to earn business, and the more eyes we can get on the listings we’re selling for our clients. But, why not spread it out to charities and small businesses, as well, if we can? We can leverage our “fame” to hold up other businesses and charities and, at the same time, become more “famous” through cross-pollinating audiences. Beats sending the money to a faceless company a two-connection airplane flight away. My encouragement, via challenge to my real estate peers and any local business, is to think outside the box when it comes to standing out. Instead of deploying marketing dollars to “buy leads” or

improve your search engine ranking, try collaborating with another small business or charity. Get weird. Do something fun. It keeps the monies local, brings awareness to charities and other local businesses and gets eyeballs on you and the services you provide. We’re all inherently self-interested. We may as well shine the light on others while looking for our own spotlight! Tyler Ross is the principal of Ross Real Estate in Warrenton.
