After winning the inaugural Conference 10 title, the Gloucester High School field hockey team added the first-ever 5A South Region crown to its growing list of achievements last week. The Lady Dukes, at 21-0, now have a state title in their sights.

The Gloucester girls faced Kellam in the regional semifinals on Nov. 6 at the National Training Center in Virginia Beach and found themselves in the unique position of being down, 3-0, at the half. Ultimately, the Dukes got their groove back and pulled out a 4-3 victory.

"We were stale and we were flat," said Gloucester coach Mike Miller of his team’s first half play. Miller said his players may have been a bit intimidated by the fact that a win would send them to the state tournament. "I challenged them a bit at the half, reminded them of what got them here," he said and the girls responded by stepping things up in the second half.
