Husband of missing woman says evidence can’t prove his guilt Naresh Bhatt pushes for a quick trial on charge he hid his wife’s body By Cher Muzyk Staff Writer
It’s clear that Naresh Bhatt, who has been charged with concealing a dead body in connection with the disappearance of his wife, Mamta Kafle Bhatt, wants to go to trial as soon as possible. But the reasons behind the legal strategy were murky until Friday when his defense counsel alleged in a motion that the commonwealth’s attorney’s office can’t prove its case against Naresh Bhatt with the evidence it has gathered so far. The motion also asks the court to order prosecutors to turn over evidence that may show Naresh Bhatt, 37, was not with his wife when she disappeared. Shalev Ben-Avraham, a senior assistant Prince William County public defender, has been moving quickly to advance the case since Naresh Bhatt was arrested just more than two weeks ago.

School board won’t pull challenged library book Young adult fantasy novel with sexual content to remain in high school libraries By Jill Palermo Managing Editor
A popular young adult fantasy novel that was challenged by a local member of Moms For Liberty will remain on Prince William County high school library shelves after a recent vote of the Prince William County School Board. The Prince William County School Board denied a Nokesville dad’s request to remove “A Court of Thorns and Roses,” by Sarah J. Maas, from school libraries because of sex scenes involving the book’s 19-yearold female protagonist. The school board voted 5-2 on Wednesday, Sept. 4 in favor of a motion to retain the book. Chris Funderburg, vice chair of the Prince William chapter of Moms
for Liberty, first requested the book be removed in September 2023, but it took about a year for his request to wind through the division’s review process to the school board level. The group is a local chapter of the national Moms for Liberty group, which consists of conservative parents who advocate for “parents’ rights” in public schools and is known for challenging school library books they deem inappropriate for students. Moms for Liberty chapters, as well as like-minded parents and state legislators, have prompted a wave of book bans in schools across the country. During the 2021-2022 school year, more than 1,600 books were banned from school libraries in 32 states, according to a report from PEN America, an organization that defends free expression.

up court proceedings. Because Naresh Bhatt is jailed awaiting trial, the prosecution has just five months to
bring him to trial under Virginia’s speedy trial law. “The Commonwealth has … continued to press forward with the charge against Mr. Bhatt, despite admissions that they are not sure that Mamta Bhatt is deceased, as they continue to investigate a case they are unable to prove,” the motion states. “It is why they are attempting to delay this trial for as long as possible.” The motion references a comment Commonwealth’s Attorney Amy Ashworth made to media immediately following Bhatt’s arrest on Aug. 22. She said she did not know if Mamta Kafle Bhatt, 28, was alive or dead. Since then, Ashworth hasn’t publicly commented, but Manassas Park Police Chief Mario Lugo has repeatedly said there’s no evidence indicating that Mamta Kafle Bhatt is alive. At the same time, law enforcement has not yet found her body, despite numerous searches of the Bhatts’ home and nearby parks and wooded areas, the latest of which took place Thursday, Sept. 5.

New citizens eager to have their say at the ballot box
The newest Americans say voting shows their national pride By Evelyn Mejia Staff Writer
Rafael Medina didn’t initially plan to settle in the U.S. after first crossing the Southern U.S. border from Mexico a couple times in the 1980s. The third time, in 1988, he decided to stay. That was 36 years ago. For one reason or another, he put off becoming a citizen. When he finally made the step in 2023, his patriotism swelled, he said. “It was very beautiful; it was as if I was born again in this country,” Medina said. His motivation for finally becoming a U.S. citizen? The upcoming presidential election. “In the time I’ve been in this country or in Mexico, I’ve never seen an election cycle like this,” said Medina, 62. “I can’t describe it

But new citizens’ partisan affiliations are mixed, and according to one survey, they care most about the economy this year, including inflation and the high cost of living, which is a top issue among all voters, according to a survey conducted this past spring by the National Partnership for New Americans.

New citizens eager to have their say at the ballot box VOTING, from page 1 No matter what happens, Medina said it was important to him to have a say in the process. “If the person I vote for wins, I’ll be very happy,” Medina said. “And if they lose, I’ll be upset, but at least I’ll be able to say I did what I had to do which is vote.” Medina is one of an estimated 3.5 million adults of voting age who have become naturalized in the U.S. since the 2020 election, according to data from the U.S. Immigration Policy Center at the University of California San Diego. Pat Reilly, the president of Fauquier and Prince William County’s League of Women Voters Chapter, said it’s exciting to help new citizens participate in our democracy no matter what their politics. The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan organization that encourages informed and active participation of citizens in government. Although naturalization ceremonies are no longer held in Fauquier or Prince William counties, the local chapter often travels to Arlington or Fairfax and registers new citizens there. “It’s a great feeling to be able to help them in one of the most important parts of participating in our democracy,” Reilly said. “It’s an exciting way of saying ‘Welcome to U.S. citizenship.’” Like Medina, other immigrants say having the right to vote is not something they take for granted and is a key motivation for becoming a U.S. citizen. Isabelle de Vooght first arrived in Manassas from Belgium with her husband and daughter in

Rafael Medina, 62, became a naturalized citizen and registered to vote in 2023, largely because of the upcoming presidential election. what she calls a historic time for the country back in 2008. The day before she and her family arrived, former President Barack Obama spoke to an estimated 90,000 Virginians gathered at the Prince William County Fairgrounds. Although de Vooght and her family immigrated legally, sentiments about immigration in Prince William County were much different than they are now. The county is now the 10th most diverse in the nation and has a sizable population of immigrants from all over the world. “I remember having conversations with an old
colleague who would criticize immigrants, and I’d have to remind him that I too am an immigrant,” de Vooght said. “He would say I was different, but I’d have to tell him that at the end of the day, I’m the part of the people he was talking badly about.” In 2016, de Vooght, her husband and her daughter obtained permanent residency sponsorship through her husband’s employer. Shortly after, she and her family began working to become U.S. citizens. In 2022, she and her husband became naturalized citizens in a special ceremony on Independence Day at George Washington’s Mount Vernon. The first thing they did after becoming citizens? Register to vote. Coming from a country where it is mandatory to vote, de Vooght says she and her husband have done their civic duty each election cycle since they became citizens. Almost a year ago, de Vooght says she furthered her involvement by becoming an elections officer. For the past two elections, de Vooght says she’s worked at her assigned precinct from 5 a.m. until about 10 p.m. on Election Day. Although it’s a long day, de Vooght says her favorite part is interacting with first-time voters. “I’ve seen the joy and pride through other people being first-time voters, and it also just feels good doing my part in the democratic process as an elections officer to ensure things run smoothly,” she said.

Young adult fantasy novel with sexual content to remain in high school libraries BOOKS, from page 1 The Sept. 4 vote was the first time the Prince William County School Board considered a request to remove a book from school libraries, according to Diana Gulotta, a school division spokeswoman. Although the school board is nonpartisan, the vote fell along party lines with only the school board’s Republican members — Erica Tredinnick, of the Brentsville District, and Jenn Wall, of the Gainesville District — voting to remove the book. Five of the six Democrats on the board voted in favor of keeping it in high school libraries. School Board Chairman Babur Lateef, also a Democrat, did not attend the meeting. Wall said she read the book and researched what others said about it. “I do not feel it is appropriate for children,” she said. “I cannot support this book in our circulation, and I think it should be taken out of our schools.” Tredinnick agreed the book should be removed and encouraged the school division to take additional steps to make it easier for parents to restrict their kids from checking out books they consider inappropriate. The book challenge rose to the school board after two review committees of teachers, parents, a school librarian and students decided “A Court of Thorns and Roses” should remain available to high school students. The first review came from a school-level committee and the second from a committee comprised of a teacher, librarian, parent and student chosen from various schools in the school division. Funderburg appealed both committees’ decisions, resulting in the matter

Chris Funderburg, of Nokesville, speaks at meeting of the local Moms for Liberty chapter in 2023. going before Superintendent LaTanya McDade, who upheld the committees’ votes. Funderburg then appealed McDade’s decision, which elevated the matter to the school board. “A Court of Thorns and Roses” is the first in a series of five books written by Maas about a young woman who hunts for her family and is transported to a mythical land where she falls in love with a male fairy leader there. It’s been described by reviewers as a cross between “Beauty and the Beast” and “Cinderella.” Although the book includes a few sex scenes, it is not on the school division’s list of sexually explicit books, Funderburg said. Funderburg read from the book during public comment time at the Sept. 4 meeting. Funderburg said he reads from school library books during school board meetings to raise awareness.
“A lot of people don’t believe” that school library books contain sexual content, he said in an interview after the meeting. “I want (school board members) to go on record and say, ‘I heard what you said, and this is fine for children.’” The book isn’t the only one Funderburg is challenging. He leads a committee as part of the local Moms for Liberty group that has filed appeals against at least eight school library books, he said. Prince William County Public Schools rolled out a new system this year that allows parents to restrict what their kids check out by noting specific books in their kids’ online library accounts. But both Funderburg and Tredinnick said that’s impractical because most parents can’t take the time to find out what’s in the library and ob-
ject to specific books. The school division maintains a list of sexually explicit instructional materials in compliance with a 2022 state law that requires schools to ensure parents are notified of such materials. Parents can also request alternative materials for their children under the law. Tredinnick and Funderburg said parents should be notified of every book their children check out, which is now happening in other Virginia school divisions, including in Fauquier County. Stephanie Solivan, the school division’s associate superintendent of teaching and learning, said the school division is aware of that capability but has not yet purchased the software that performs that task. But, she told the school board, she and McDade would likely consider it. Reach Jill Palermo at jpalermo@ fauquier.com

Manassas Park hopefuls want to boost business, cut taxes 3 incumbents, 1 newcomer vie for 4 seats on the ballot Nov. 5 By Cher Muzyk Staff Writer
With three Manassas Park City Council seats up for grabs on Nov. 5, voters will choose from among three incumbents — Darryl Moore and Yesenia “Yesy” Amaya, both Democrats, and Laura Hampton, an independent — and newcomer Stacy Seiberling, a Democrat and current school board member. The candidates have few differences on the issues. All four say they want to continue fostering economic growth in the city and lower the tax burden on city residents. Both are perpetual issues in Manassas Park, whose 17,000 residents have had to shoulder one of the highest real estate tax rates in the region over the last several years. In the last three years, the city council reduced the real estate tax rate in Manassas Park by 12.5 cents to $1.405 per $100 in assessed value. In comparison, the property tax rate in the City of Manassas is $1.26 and $.92 in Prince William County. All three incumbents expressed support last year for a ballot referendum to allow a new Rosie’s Gaming Emporium to open in Manassas Park in the hopes that gambling would generate tax revenue and bring jobs. But Manassas Park voters rejected Rosie’s by a margin of about 17.5%. About 35% of Manassas Park voters cast ballots in the 2023 election. Manassas Park looks quite a bit different than it did four years ago when the incumbents’ terms began. Manassas Park has built its new city center, Park Central, which includes an open-air public square, a new city hall and the 10,000-squarefoot Manassas Park Central Library, which opened in September 2022. Construction is well underway on a new parking garage next to city hall and near the Virginia Railway Express commuter station. Several new dining options are also coming to downtown Manassas Park, with opening dates slated in about a year. Here’s a closer look at each of the candidates: Darryl Moore, 63, a Democrat, has lived in Manassas Park since 2019 and has served one term on city council. He has a master’s degree in public policy from the University of Chicago. “One of my proudest accomplishments was Moore getting the city to adopt an inclusive non-discrimination policy,” Moore said. Moore moved for the city council to adopt a formal, non-discrimination policy in 2021. The resolution read in part: “Manassas Park is strengthened by and thrives upon the rich diversity of ethnic, cultural, racial, gender and
sexual identities of its residents, all of which contribute to the vibrant character of our city.” Moore said he is running for a second term because as a public servant for more than 20 years, he enjoys helping neighbors and the community solve problems. If Moore is elected, he said he will focus on reducing the property tax rate and increasing affordable housing Yesenia “Yesy” Amaya, 47, a Democrat, has called Manassas Park home for 23 years and has served one term on city council. She has so far completed three years toward her bachelor’s degree in information technology at Northern Virginia Community College and Strayer University. “One of my proudest accomAmaya plishments during this time is the implementation of the city flag policy,” Amaya said. In 2021, the city council approved a resolution to allow flags representing special causes, such as breast cancer awareness, to fly on city-owned flagpoles. “This initiative created a platform for our community to come together in celebration of holidays, raise awareness and honor the diverse communities that make Manassas

Park unique.” Amaya said she has two goals for her next term: “first, to see the completion of our city’s downtown, transforming it into a vibrant hub for our community, and second, to finalize our collaboration with Northern Virginia Electric Cooperative to enhance street lighting along Manassas Drive, ensuring safer and better-lit neighborhoods for all residents.” Laura Hampton, 51, an independent, is a life-long resident of Manassas Park. She is running for a second term on city council. Hampton has a master of business administration from University of Maryland Hampton Global Campus and expects to receive her doctorate in business administration in leadership from Liberty University in December. Hampton said her proudest accomplishment on the board was working with residents and county staff to address issues with dilapidated and vacant homes in the city. “My focus is, and always will be, on what’s best for all of us in Manassas Park, without the influence of party politics,” she said. If re-elected, Hampton said she will have a dual focus on increasing resident participation at board meet-
ings and working on economic development. Stacy Seiberling, 48, a Democrat, has lived in Manassas Park for the past 25 years. She has a bachelor’s in management science from Virginia Tech. Seiberling is currently serving her second term on the Manassas Park School Board. “I see an opportunity to bring fresh ideas, Seiberling transparency and responsive leadership to the council, and I’m dedicated to making a tangible difference for every resident,” she said. If elected, Seiberling said her primary goals would be to alleviate the tax burden on residents, foster a more connected community and ensure that Manassas Park is a “welcoming and inclusive city.” She said she would work to lower taxes by advocating for “responsible fiscal management” and looking for “innovative solutions” to increase the city’s revenue. Improving accessibility to services is another aim. “By improving accessibility to services and ensuring that all voices are heard, our citizens can be more engaged and informed, connected to the decisions being made on their behalf.” Reach Cher Muzyk at cmuzyk@ fauquier.com

Husband of missing woman says evidence can’t prove his guilt
BHATT, from page 1
There has been a public outcry from Mamta Kafle Bhatt’s many friends and supporters asking why Naresh Bhatt has not yet been charged with murder, especially since his criminal complaint states plainly: “Bhatt murdered his wife, Mamta Bhatt.” Naresh Bhatt’s attorneys argued that prosecutors charged him prematurely. “They chose to charge this. They had all the time in the world,” Chief Public Defender Tracey Lenox said during a court hearing on Thursday, Sept. 5.
Naresh Bhatt was charged with concealing a dead body after police found “a substantial amount of digital and forensic evidence” indicating that a dead body and blood were inside the couple’s Manassas Park home. “Everything in this case is very circumstantial,” prosecutor Sarah Sami said during Bhatt’s initial court hearing, but she noted that everything taken together — the blood evidence and knives and cleaning products Naresh Bhatt purchased after his wife disappeared — supports the charge. Naresh Bhatt asks the court to order prosecutors to turn over “vitally
crucial” evidence because “all of the information would go to Mr. Bhatt’s innocence,” the motion states. Police have said they have video footage of Mamta Kafle Bhatt taken on Saturday, July 27, when she was seen leaving work at UVA Prince William Medical Center in an unknown black, four-door sedan driven by an unknown subject at around 8:17 p.m. Naresh Bhatt’s attorneys want that video footage and any information relating to the identity of the person driving the vehicle, along with all of Mamta Kafle Bhatt’s cellphone data and all GPS data in police possession.
Naresh Bhatt “needs to explore and figure out where Mamta went on various days leading up to her disappearance, as it could show that Mr. Bhatt was in fact not with her when she went missing,” the motion states. “Finding the driver of the vehicle that picked up Mamta Bhatt is also vitally important as they might have information that would lead us to the discovery of where Mamta Bhatt is and has been.” Naresh Bhatt will return to court on the motion on Friday, Sept. 13 at 9 a.m. Reach Cher Muzyk at cmuzyk@ fauquier.com

LEGAL NOTICE
NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC OF AN APPLICATION BY COLUMBIA GAS OF VIRGINIA, INC. FOR APPROVAL TO IMPLEMENT A 2025 SAVE RIDER IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 20 OF ITS GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS CASE NO. PUR-2024-00103 On August 23, 2024, Columbia Gas of Virginia, Inc. (“CVA” or the “Company”) completed the filing of an application (“Application”) with the State Corporation Commission (“Commission”), pursuant to Chapter 26 of Title 56 of the Code of Virginia (“Code”), known as the Steps to Advance Virginia’s Energy Plan (SAVE) Act, for approval to implement a SAVE Rider for calendar year 2025 (“2025 SAVE Rider”). Pursuant to Code § 56-604 E, the Commission must issue an order approving or denying the proposed 2025 SAVE Rider adjustment within 90 days of the filing of a complete application. CVA represents that its SAVE Plan is a program designed to accelerate the replacement of certain components of its gas distribution system infrastructure to enhance system safety and reliability. The Company states that the Commission approved the Company’s Phase 5 SAVE Plan subject to Staff’s recommendations. CVA represents that its 2025 SAVE Rider is billed as a fixed charge each month and is designed to recover “eligible infrastructure replacement costs” as defined in Code § 56-603. CVA states that has separately filed for approval of a base rate case (“2024 Rate Case Application”) in which the Company requested, and was granted, Commission authorization to implement its proposed base rates on an interim basis for service rendered on and after the first billing unit of October 2024. The Company represents that rates and charges proposed in the 2024 Rate Case Application will include recovery of costs associated with all SAVE in-service plant expenditures made through September 30, 2024, and excludes anticipated SAVE-related expenditures from October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025. As a result, the Company represents that the SAVE Projected Factor will be set to zero concurrent with the implementation of interim base rates effective the first billing unit of October 2024. In this proceeding, CVA requests recovery of SAVE-related costs incurred after September 30, 2024, including SAVE-related investment; the SAVE-related construction work in-progress balance at September 30, 2024; and any SAVE-related revenue requirement not recovered in base rates. CVA proposes the 2025 SAVE Rider to be effective the first billing unit of January 2025. The Company further states that the proposed 2025 SAVE Rider comprises two components, a Projected Factor and a True-Up Factor. CVA states that it is requesting a True-Up Factor revenue requirement is $2,077,775, and a Projected Factor revenue requirement is $6,028,485, for a total 2025 SAVE Rider revenue requirement of $8,106,261. According to the Application, the 2025 SAVE Rider rate calculations are based on a $73.7 million projected SAVE eligible capital program for 2025; projected 2025 costs associated with the Company’s Advanced Leak Detection and Repair Program; and the true-up of the recovery of the actual SAVE cost of service for the calendar year 2023. The Application notes that the Company used the same methodology as approved in Case No. PUR-2023-00119 to allocate the SAVE Plan cost of service to determine the projected rate applicable to each rate schedule. The Company states that the proposed 2025 SAVE Rider will reduce the annual bill for an average residential customer using 64.9 dekatherms per year by $10.68, a 0.9% decrease, when compared to the rates in effect on June 29, 2024. The details of these and other proposals are set forth in the Company’s Application. Interested persons are encouraged to review the Company’s Application and supporting exhibits for the details of these proposals. TAKE NOTICE that the Commission may adopt rates that differ from those appearing in the Company’s Application and supporting documents and may apportion revenues among customer classes and/or design rates in a manner differing from that shown in the Application and supporting documents. The Commission entered an Order for Notice and Comment that, among other things, directed the Company to provide notice to the public and provided interested persons an opportunity to comment on the Company’s Application. Pursuant to 5 VAC 5-20-140, Filing and service, of the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure (“Rules of Practice”), the Commission has directed that service on parties and Staff in this matter shall be accomplished by electronic means.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
It’s time for commonsense gun laws As I watched the opening ceremony of the Olympics, I found myself crying as I thought about all the children who will never have a chance to compete because their lives have been cut short due to gun violence. It breaks my heart when I hear that parents are having to repeatedly caution their children telling them: “If something bad happens at school, follow your teacher’s directions when s/he tells you to hide quietly.” And: “If someone starts waving a gun or starts shooting, get away quickly. You might get hurt in order to get away, but you will likely heal.” Is this the advice we want to be giving to our children? School is for learning, not fearing for your life. Why not have common sense, reasonable gun regulation to ensure a safe environment at school and in our communities? No one is suggesting doing away with Second Amendment rights. Our founding fathers never imagined assault weapons in our society. How could they? These are weapons of
modern warfare. More importantly, in the wrong hands they are weapons of mass destruction. Some commonsense gun regulations, proposed by your Democratic legislators include: • Require background checks for private and gun show sales. • Create a national “red flag” law. • Require a license before gun purchase. • Ban the sale of high-capacity magazines. • Ban the sale of semi-automatic weapons. • Create a mandatory assault weapon buyback program. • Increase mental health funding. Project 2025, a policy document from the conservative Heritage Foundation, aims to weaken the rule of law and weaponize criminal legal systems. According to the Center for American Progress, if its policies are enacted, they will undermine efforts to prevent gun violence and hold people who commit violence accountable.
Some advice: Leave the political signs alone
Conversely, the Biden Administration has done more to reduce gun violence than any administration in decades; the American Rescue Plan Act and the bipartisan Safer Communities Act included $250 million directly to the community-based Violence Intervention and Prevention Initiative. This is the largest such federal investment in a CVI program ever. According to the Center for American Progress, we have seen a remarkable decline in gun homicides, down by 13.1% since 2023 and 16.4% since 2021 I know that many of you reading this newspaper share my pain in knowing that the leading cause of death of children under the age of 20 is gun violence. Let’s all work together to pass sensible gun legislation by voting for local, state and national Democrats who are already leading this effort!
Kids, I know riding around at night and messing with things is a lot of fun. And what better targets than those political signs that are popping up everywhere? But I wanted you to know that it is against Virginia law to damage or steal those signs. Taking one is considered theft, punishable by fines of up to $2,500. Venturing on to private property could be considered trespassing. Also, the commonwealth protects posted political signs as a First Amendment right and an age-old way for people to show their support for candidates and causes. Just being a kid, I wouldn’t expect you to know all that, and I wanted to warn you of the potential consequences. If you get caught, don’t say I didn’t warn you. I’m looking out for you!

8 things to know about the Solheim Cup By Peter Brewington Sports Editor
The Solheim Cup women’s golf tournament is coming to the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Gainesville this week. Matching U.S. pros vs. Europe, it runs from Friday through Sunday. Here’s what to know about the tournament: 1. Team USA is led by the world’s No. 1 player: Nelly Korda, 26, of Bradenton, Florida, has won 14 tournaments in her great career and leads the 12-member U.S. team. 2. The U.S. women need a win: Although the U.S. leads the series 10-7, Europe has won the last three Solheim Cups, beating the U.S. in 2019 and 2021. They tied in 2023, but Europe retained the Cup as previous champs giving them a three-Cup winning streak. 3. Who is Karsten Solheim? The Norwegian golf club maker

Jones Golf Club: The U.S. men have won four Presidents Cups (U.S. vs. the World outside Europe) at Robert Trent Jones, winning in 1994, 1996, 2000 and 2005.
5. Are you ready for 28 matches? Foursome competitions begin Friday morning at 7:05 a.m. Sunday’s final day is made up of 12 singles matches. 6. What if they’re tied? It takes 14 ½ points to win the Solheim Cup outright. If they’re tied, like in 2023, previous champion Europe will retain the Cup. 7. Several ticket packages are available: General admission for competition rounds is $110 for adults and $20 for children. Tickets are also available for practice rounds. Ticket information is available at https://www.solheimcupusa.com/tickets 8. Where should you park? All public parking for the tournament is at Jiffy Lube Live. All rideshare dropoff and pick-ups are directed there as well. A shuttle service will be running on a constant loop between Jiffy Lube Live and the course.
BATTLEFIELD FOOTBALL PREVIEW
Could potent Bobcats be the new Freedom? By Peter Brewington Sports Editor
PHOTO BY DOUG STROUD
Calum O’Shea and the Battlefield Bobcats will be happy to represent Prince William County in the Class 6 state championship on Dec. 14 in Harrisonburg.
Subtract a football superpower like Freedom (Woodbridge) from the equation and everyone’s path to postseason glory gets easier. Right? With two-time Class 6 champ Freedom on the downslide, pundits now see coach Greg Hatfield’s Battlefield Bobcats as one of the favorites for the Class 6 Region B title. Hatfield, who has won three straight Cedar Run District crowns in his three years since coming in from Eastern View (Culpeper), is too experienced to fall into the trap of overconfidence – even though his team owns 35 straight regular season wins and made the state semifinals in 2021. “We can’t start skipping rungs on the ladder and miss one and fail. We are 100 percent on Gar-Field and their athletes and their new coaching staff,” said Hatfield, whose squad hosts the Red Wolves (1-1) Friday in Haymarket. Battlefield (2-0) has posted mercy rule wins over Hylton 63-0 and Potomac 56-6 and looks locked and loaded for a monster year. Both games saw star quarterback Calum O’Shea and other starters leave early. O’Shea was a precision machine last week against Potomac, completing 9-of-10 passes for 182 yards and a TD. He also ran six times for 71 yards and a TD. “He is getting more and more comfortable in the offense every game. He had some big games last year. The game is slowing down for him some,” said Hatfield, who thinks O’Shea will play some level of Division I football. “He’s a hard-working, great kid.” Then there’s senior Sage Davis to lead the running game. Davis, who ran for a teamhigh 942 yards and nine touchdowns last year, pulled a hamstring in preseason and has been limited. He got five carries against Poto-
mac last week. “Last week was his first game. We’ll get him back in the flow,” said Hatfield, who said Davis has numerous offers from NCAA Division III schools. Other team stars are two-way seniors Bryce Banning and Cole Woodson. Banning tied for the team lead in scoring with 78 points last year. Woodson has committed to play at the University of Pittsburgh. As far as size, Battlefield has beef with a slew of defensive linemen starters back. The offensive line is led by 6-foot-4, 285-pound Luke Hatfield, the coach’s son, joined by some non-starters from last year. “All the new guys got playing time last year. They just didn’t start for us,” said the coach. With a relatively soft schedule that will get harder next year when Mountain View and South Lakes are rotated in, the Bobcats expect to keep winning regular season games. Battlefield faces rapidly improving Gainesville (2-0) on Oct. 18 and closes with traditional foe and region contender Patriot (1-0) on Nov. 18. Battlefield has won six straight against Patriot, including twice last year when the Bobcats won the regular season finale 26-23, then eliminated the Pioneers decisively in the region quarterfinals, 26-6. Battlefield finished 12-1 and fell to Freedom (Woodbridge) 50-7 in the region final. Battlefield kept it close for a while, fueling their hopes that 2024 could be as good as 2010 when Battlefield won the state title under coach Mark Cox. Hatfield says it’s too early to get visions of grandeur. “I like where we are. Again, we are concentrating on who we are and what we do. Our focus is Gar-Field,” Hatfield said. “We try to be very blue collar. We talk about outworking our opponent and bringing the lunchpail and going to work every day,” he said.
