Yorktown Establishes State Records:
The Virginia High School League has recognized the 2007 Yorktown Patriots softball team as the state recordholder for runs scored in a season (245) and hits in a season (276). These marks will be recorded in the state record book in the December, 2007 update. The Broad Run 2001 team previously held the record for runs scored (189) and CD Hylton’s 2005 team was the hits in a season record holder (257).
In addition, Briana Hanafin is now 8th in the record book for runs batted in in a game (6) for her one inning performance at home against Falls Church.
Press Release:
Yorktown Players Announce their College Intentions:
2007-2008 Recruiting Class Announced.
Baylor University Coach Glenn Moore announced the signing of Bree Hanafin of Yorktown High School, Arlington, Virginia.
Hanafin, a first team all-district and all-region selection last season, is a two-time Yorktown High School MVP. The shortstop, who also lettered in track, is a member of the Virginia Shamrocks Gold.
"Bree is the prototype athlete every coach wants,"
Moore said. "She has the triple threat of the short game, power (both sides of the plate) and speed. She plays shortstop and outfield for Tommy Orndorff's national powerhouse program, the Virginia Shamrocks."
In a similar announcement, George Washington Universtiy announced the signing of Senior Lauren Wilson C/1B. Lauren was also a first team all-district selection.
Congratulations to both Yorktown Fastpitch players.
DRUM ROLL, PLEASE!

And a big thanks for former Coach Huling -- although he has moved on to a new position at Shenandoah University, he has continued his efforts to ensure our student-athletes are recognized for their achievements, both on and off the softball diamond. Thanks, Ron!
