Sports Updates: The undefeated varsity girls soccer team, now 8-0, is the top-ranked public school team in the region, according to The Washington Post. The Post's weekly Top 10 list puts the Barons at #3, behind only St. John's and Archbishop Spalding, two Catholic high schools. B-CC has outscored its first eight opponents, 54-4, netting an average five goals a game in the first half alone and never trailing in any game. In this week's poll by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America, B-CC is ranked No. 13 in Region IV, which includes MD, VA, DC, WV, TN, and KY. Go, Barons!

Every season the B-CC All-Sports Boosters purchase silver engraved stars for the student-athletes that coaches designate as the example of sportsmanship on his/her team. It is given not only for hard work and personal improvement, but also for a willingness to understand, to learn, to enter into a partnership with the coaches and teammates in an effort to recognize one’s full potential. At the same time, this person has taken an individual sport to its highest team level by consistently placing personal goals subordinate to the team’s needs and goals.
