DULLES VIKINGS In the pool, head coach Jonathan Hansen guided several swimmers past District, with senior Winnie Liu and sophomore Ethan Valerio each claiming two gold medals at Regionals to advance to the 6A State Championships. Liu went on to place second in both the 100- and 200-yard freestyle events. Girls basketball showed tangible progress in head coach Liz Oyervides’ first season, as juniors Laylah Thornton and Kylie Lou led the Lady Vikings to a 5-9 district record and a sixth-place finish. On the boys’ side, senior Jayden Redhead provided flashes of promise as the squad continues to find its footing. Both soccer programs faced tough district slates, yet each remain hopeful for future opportunities. Spring brings a renewed progression for the Vikings. Baseball, led by head coach James Voradakis, aims to build on last year’s first postseason berth since 2019, with seniors Andrew Petershagen Jr., Austin Sinegal, and Diego Munguia, plus junior Troy Pipes, headlining the roster. Meanwhile, softball has emerged as a district contender behind junior Stephanie Smith, freshman Jacky Ford, and sophomore Paityn Thrasher. On the track, Kaydene Lockhart, Kaci Smith, Reuben Ozomah, Londyn Robinson, and Jaheim Gordon are expected to rack up points, while the John Garrett-led golf program balances familiarity with emergence for the season ahead.
