There must be something in the water at the Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology. Or, perhaps the cafeteria staff is spiking the Salisbury steak with a magic running potion. Whatever the reason is, Jefferson's cross-country teams have become a dominant force in Northern Virginia.
The Colonials swept the top five spots in the boys race at the Liberty District meet at Burke Lake Park Thursday afternoon – spearheaded by senior Evan Heflin's top finish with a time of 15:32 – and claimed the team title with 15 points.
