Wakefield basketball teams 2-0 vs. county rivals

by Sun Gazette Newspapers

So far this season, the Wakefield Warriors are 2-0 against their two Arlington County rivals in boys basketball action, with one regular-season game each still remaining against those opponents.

Wakefield’s most recent intra-county victory was an 80-64 road win over the Yorktown Patriots in high-school action. Earlier, Wakefield topped the Washington-Liberty Generals, 61-56 in overtime, for its initial win over a neighborhood rival. Each were Liberty District contests.

Last season, Wakefield finished 2-2 against those rivals, losing twice to Washington-Liberty.

In the win over Yorktown, the 80 points tied a single-game season high for Wakefield. The Warriors got off to a fast start in the outing, leading 18-11 at the end of the first quarter and 39-19 at halftime.

Four players scored in double figures for Wakefield, with senior forward Ethan O'Bryan leading the way with a career-high 20 points on 10 two-point field goals. He scored 16 in the first half, eight in each quarter.

“He played his role,” Wakefield coach Tony Bentley said of O’Bryan.

The boys also had a thrilling game, finishing 80-64. Ethan O’Bryan was their leading scorer, putting 20 points on the board. They started the game with a strong lead, heading into halftime 38-19. Their strong defense kept the Patriots from making many of their three-point attempts. “It really feels great to beat Yorktown after just beating Washington-Liberty,” senior Ethan O’Bryan says, “It feels like we’re playing for each other rather than just ourselves.”
