“Then, A.J. said. ‘If we get this question, we win. If we miss it ...’ “ Cloud remembered. George Mason senior Adam Gann buzzed in and misidentified a geographic location. The interruption cost the Mustangs five points and sealed Rappahannock County's win.
“I knew we had won,” Cloud added. “I watched A.J. all during the match writing down the score, going from point to point to point."
Clatterbuck gave the right answer for the Panthers, who broke into a huge celebration of high fives, handshakes and hugs. Even some of the other Bull Run District teams who decided to stay and watch the championship matches cheered for Rappahannock County.
“Everyone in the room was cheering for us, including the Clarke people, and you don’t see that every day," Collins joked.
Noser added, “Dr. (Bob* ,* Chappell (superintendent of * Rappahannock County Public Schools) thought it was great to see the kids so excited atomt winning. It goes to prove tnat on any given day, this can happen."
Cloud wanted to share the moment with long-time friend Jesse Palmer, a Rappahannock County graduate who plnyed on the team. So, standing in the middle of the celebrution, she grabbed her cell phone and called Palmer, who currently attends Stanford University in California.

The two schools are likely to meet in the regional tournament. They did a year ago. They also went to the Group A state tournament together, where Rappahannock County finished fourth.
“There's no real difference between one or two (at regional) except that you get a bigger trophy,” Collins said. “I just want to go back to the state tournament."
