Woodbridge Senior High School's Varsity Women's Field Hockey team defeated the Stonewall Jackson Raiders, 8-0 in the home opener this evening at the A.T. Howard Stadium.

The Vikings' offense powered through the first half, as another Viking forward Kelly Ludwig scored the fifth goal of the game.

Headed into the second half, the Vikings scored a seventh goal in the last three minutes of the first half.

Midfield defender sophomore KC Buckley delivered a powerhouse performance as well, supporting her team throughout the entirety of the game.

Stonewall Jackson attempted a goal early in the second half of the game to no avail. All attempts at goals were thwarted by Woodbridge goalie and senior Hali Haskins.
