Atoms Weekly Recap
A recap from the week in winter sports:
Girls Basketball played three games this week. The growth and improvement of this team continues to show with each passing game. The Atoms played well against Falls Church but the inside presence of FC was just too much. The Atoms hosted Hayfield and traveled to Fairfax in their other two games for the week. The Atoms fell in both games but their determination and grit continues to keep them in games. The Atoms host the Raegan Sharnae Way Atoms Holiday Tournament over the break.
Boys Basketball had three games this week. The Atoms started the week off with a district win over Falls Church. The night was a back and forth affair before the Atoms ultimately pulled away in the final minutes to secure the win. The Atoms played two-time defending state champion Hayfield Wednesday evening and a region semifinal team Fairfax Friday. The Atoms competed and played hard in both games but came up short in their efforts. The Atoms travel to Myrtle Beach over the break for their holiday tournament.
Swim/Dive competed vs Justice last Saturday and the boys team took the win over Justice. The Atoms jumped back in the pool last night vs Lewis and it turned out to be a successful night as both the boys and girls teams scored over 200 points to get the win! There were several personal best times set last night and the Atoms hope to get continue that tonight as they take on TJ.
Wrestling traveled to Loudoun County last Saturday and came away with some impressive performances by many including Isaac Readinger and Carlos Monjares going undefeated for the day. The Atoms continue to improve with each match and return to the mat today as they travel to Woodson before heading to Woodbridge over the break.
Indoor Track had a successful meet at Thomas Jefferson Middle School Friday evening. Personal best were set by many athletes including Teagan Scott-Daniels qualifying for the regional met with her best high jump performance of the year. The Atoms return after the break to the track.
Gymnastics got back on the mats twice this week. Monday the Atoms continued to improve their skills at their meet at South County which helped the Atoms at their second meet at West Potomac. The Atoms had an all around great meet, finishing third, ahead of two other National District Schools. The Atoms take the break off and return to the floor on January 10 at Robinson.
