The Boys Varsity Basketball team beat Manassas Park 71-57 tonight in the 1/4 finals of the Bull Run District tournament.   Madison jumped out to a 12-3 lead early in the 1st quarter and were never seriously threatened the rest of the night.   Travis Warren led the Mountaineers with 20 points. Matt Temple had 17 points and Patrick Roebuck added 15.  (ScrimmagePlay.com article on the game)

Madison will travel to George Mason on Tuesday for a 6:00 semi-final game against the winner of tomorrows William Monroe/Central Woodstock 1/4 final game.

Madison’s varsity girls were in the game with Clarke the whole way, trading leads with the Eagles, but couldn’t quite pull it out in the end.  Madison lost to Clarke 48-42.

Madison’s JV girl’s picked up a big win last night defeating previously unbeaten Clarke County 39-33.  Madison only had one district loss this year, and that was to Clarke.  So the win leaves Madison and Clarke tied for first in the Bull Run District.
