From the Eastern District, Great Bridge beat Nansemond River 14-5 last night at ODU. Great Bridge will host the loser of tonight's South County - Lake Braddock game while the winner will host Nansemond River.
Midlo,

In the posting just above your inquiry I provided a link to brackets which have been maintained since before the start of any regionals. All results consolidated in one place. Not sure how you missed it since it has been pointed out in a number of threads. It has been updated within a very short time of the conclusion of games in the Eastern, Central and Northern Regions. The Northwest has been the only Region which has been slow to be updated.

According to Fredericksburg.com, Battlefield and Halifax play today to decide the #1 and #2 seeds from the Northwest Region.

Battlefield won the AAA State Football Championship this year. A huge accmplishment.
They have only been arond since 2006. In Prince Wiliam County near Haymarket. Have 3,000 students- a big school compared to Central Region schools like JR and Godwin who are probably less than 2,000 each.
Population can make a big difference when it comes to sports.
Loudoun and Prince William are growing quickly. Only difference with Loudoun is they throw up high schools virtually every 3 years. Next year Heritage and Loudoun Valley drop to AA while Freedom and Broad Run move up to AAA.

However plans to add schools that will pull enrollment from AAA schools are already in the works. Loudoun looks to be building 4 more high schools in six years. That would bring the total to 15 by 2017. That would make 11 new schools in 20 years.

Loudoun's stance on school enrollment would have schools stay at AA athletic levels as a preference. Even Stone Bridge has kids there now who's younger sibilings will go to another school.
"how do they fund all this school construction?"

When people are prudent, they take the new revenues gleaned from the transformation of agricultural land into subdivisions (tax revenues exploding) and they dedicate those funds to pay off bonds they sell to build schools and infrastructure.

When you're Chesterfield, you spend the new revenue on new stuff, then you act like it's someone else's fault when you don't have money for the big stuff.

Eventually areas gray and the revenue spiral slows, then all the stuff hits the fan.

Ouch! That made my head hurt. Haven't gone all political in a while ....

That's very true of Loudoun...Stone Bridge is at around 1800 or so last I heard...I believe the Loudoun School Board voted last year to allow students 2013 and above to stay at Stone Bridge if they wanted to. I expect they will see reduced enrollment too over the next couple of years due to that split, but as far as I know, they will be staying AAA...Certainly they will be for the next two years...As I understand it, Broad Run and Freedom will be in the Northwest Region...
