HOCKEY Caps’ slide is longest since ’07 capitals from D1


allowed the quick-footed Ava- lanche chances in transition and spotted the visitors a two-goal lead that they wouldn’t relin- quish. Kevin Shattenkirk scored on a


bad-angle shot immediately after a faceoff win by Paul Statsny against Capitals and league-lead- ing faceoffman David Steckel for a 1-0Colorado lead just 2minutes 14 seconds into the contest.Mike Knuble would tie it for the Capi- tals midway through the first when he backhanded a rebound fromanAlexOvechkin shot in for his 250thcareerNHLgoal. With less than twominutes re-


maining in the frame theCapitals madeanother error.Abadchange off the bench left a gaping hole on the right side of the Washington defensive zone, where Avalanche defenseman Ryan Wilson re- ceived the puck. As the Capitals tried to recover, he skated to the bottom of the faceoff circle and fired awrist shot that rung off the post and in tomake it 2-1 heading into the intermission. Unlike previous chapters of their longest losing streak since


another five-gamer in 2007, the Capitals played a physical game and didn’t shy away from the crease that an opposing goalten- derprotected.Duringoneof those trips to the front of the net in the second period, Alexander Semin became involved in a shoving match with Colorado’s John-Mi- chaelLiles. After jabs back and forth,


Semin cross-checked Liles to the back of the head earning a five- minute major and game-miscon- duct. It was on the power play from Semin’s offensive zone pen- alty that a wide-open Stastny scoredtomake it3-1onagoal that wouldstandas the game-winner. “It’s a one goal game, and they


score on that power play. That’s the difference,” Boudreau said. “] “[Semin] extended his arms. He got cross-checked a couple times and he retaliated, so we’ll see. [Liles] was bleeding, so I guess theyhadto call it five.” Still 30 minutes remained in


the contest after Stastny’s tally, and the game continued to grow chippier as the Capitals tried to wear down the Avalanche, which in addition to wrapping up a lengthy road trip was without

carrerak@washpost.com NOTEBOOK Briar Woods shows its support for a fellow athlete BYMATT BROOKS AND JAMESWAGNER When No. 8 Briar Woods took


the fieldSaturday for its first-ever Virginia AA Division 4 football final at Liberty University’s Wil- liams Stadium, the Falcons car- ried the spirit of an athlete they’d nevermet froma school 90miles away:Louisa senior linemanJosh Campi. One day in practice this past


June, Campi came off the field with a bloody nose. The bleeding did not stop and Campi collapsed and had to be taken by helicopter to a nearby hospitalwhere leuke- miawas diagnosed. All season the Lions sported Campi’s No. 63 on their helmets.


Andwhen Louisa’s 11-0 run came to an end against Broad Run on Nov. 19, the Falcons picked up the cause on their way to winning a state championship. Before theirRegionII finalwin


over the Spartans, Briar Woods players affixed theNo. 63 stickers to their helmets and over the past three weeks, the Falcons have been collecting “Change for Josh” donations to donate to Campi’s family to cover medical costs. By mid-November, the Lions already had raised more than $30,000 and the BriarWoods community added to that total at last week’s state semifinal. “He didn’t have the chance to


play out his high school career, and you figure this was probably his last season of football,” Briar


Woods senior lineman Gabe Sosa said. “Wewantedtodosomething to showour support. It justmade sense.”


Backs boost Battlefield All season long, No. 5 Battle-


field has relied on a trio of run- ning backs—seniorsNagee Jack- son, Terrell Tapscott and Cedric Agyeman—tocarryitsoffense.As the leader of the bunch, Jackson ran for 1,120 yards and 22 touch- downs, and the trio combined for 2,133 yards and 30 touchdowns. In Saturday’s Virginia AAA Di-


vision 6 final against undefeated Hermitage, Tapscott and Agye- man–whohadmissed some time recently — made key contribu- tionsonthegroundtohelppropel theBobcats to a 26-7win.


Tapscott, who sat out of the


Bobcats’ 42-14 win over Colonial Forge in the Northwest Region final because of a death in family, ran for 27 yards on four carries. Agyeman,whomissedtwoplayoff games for disciplinary reasons, also chipped in with 26 yards on three carries. In all, the three backs combined for 88 yards. “It’s great,” Agyeman said.


“Each of us has a different ele- ment to the game.”


Annandale’s all-American Ahmed Bile capped a brilliant


cross-country season by earning all-American honors at Foot Locker Nationals on Saturday in SanDiego. The Annandale junior came in 14th out of 40 runners after completing the 5K Balboa


Park course in 15minutes 33 sec- onds. Sidwell Friends senior John


McGowan wasn’t far behind. He was 16th in 15:37, but missed the cutoff for all-American distinc- tion by one place. Lake Braddock’s Sophie Chase


was the only area girl to reach Saturday’s championships, but she struggled. The sophomore finished 38th and her time of 18:53 was the slowest of her sea- son. Lukas Verzbicas (Illinois) was


theboys’winner inanelectrifying 14:59. Aisling Cuffe (New York) won the girls’ race in 16:53. hss@washpost.com
