The stage was set for some excitement with sluggers from all over Northern Virginia competing to be the first Derby Champion. When it was all said and done, Stone Bridge's Johnny Bladel was the only hitter left standing.
Earlier this season, the Stone Bridge Bulldogs sent Chantilly home for their first loss of the spring, 4-2. In that game, Chantilly stranded 15 base runners, and Stone Bridge exploded for a big inning to finally pull away. On Friday night, the Chargers got some revenge when it mattered most, and advanced to the second round of the Northern Region tournament with a 3-2 victory.
