The Osbourn boys basketball team won their first regional game against G.W. Danville on Tuesday night.
The Osbourn boys basketball team has been in this position before. Just last season, the Eagles hosted all of their regional games and ended up finishing second in the region. This year Osbourn is determined to prove they are the best team in the region and maybe even the best team in the state. The first obstacle standing in the Eagles' way for that title was G.W. Danville, and the two teams squared off on Tuesday night at Osbourn. Osbourn is a team that always packs the house when they play and last night was no different. The seats were packed with the Eagle faithful for the big game. Osbourn would not disappoint the home crowd as they took control of the game early and never let up. The Eagles used great defense and transition offense…

The Osbourn boys basketball team beat Woodbridge Monday night and remain undefeated for the season.
The Eagles team traveled to Woodbridge on Monday night to take on the Vikings in a non-district match-up. Osbourn came into the game having won their first four games and knew it would be a tough contest against the Vikings. Osbourn's core group of seniors quickly took over the game. By the time it was all said and done, Osbourn ran away with a 78-54 victory to improve 5-0 for the season. The Eagles jumped out early and it was one of those games in which Osbourn was in control from the opening tip. The Eagles are a team that thrives on great defense and running to score in transition. That is exactly what they were able to do against Woodbridge with 16 steals as a team. The Eagles once again got a balanced output from multiple players. …

Osbourn's boys basketball team remain undefeated, topping the Indians of Stafford on Wednesday night.
The Osbourn Eagles boys basketball team traveled to Stafford on Wednesday night to take on the Indians in a non-district match-up. The Eagles had already won their first two games of the season and were looking to remain on top. The Indians of Stafford came out playing hard, but despite the effort, it just wasn't enough to contain the many weapons that the Eagles have this season. Osbourn was in control for the majority of the game and really opened the lead up late. The strong showing eventually lead to the Eagles winning by a final score of 83-66. Osbourn had to make some adjustments as their starting big man, Raphael Edwards was out of action for precautionary reasons after being in a minor automobile crash. That meant Senior and first …

Eagles head coach, Steve Shultze reportedly stepping down to focus on his personal life and take a break after turning the football program around.
Steve Schultze is stepping down as head coach of the Osbourn High School football team. The Washington Post is reporting Schultze broke the news to his team Tuesday morning that he was resigning from the position to take a break and focus on his personal life. Schultze is credited with turning the team around after coming onboard in 2002, when the team had lost nearly 30 games. Just four years later, he led the team to a 14-0 record and state championship title. The Eagles were also state championship contenders in 2008 and 2010. The team has made it to the playoffs six times in the past seven years. Shultze told the Post it was the talent at Osbourn that made him come back to his alma mater as coach to help "get it going."

The Eagles host Freedom-South Riding for regular season closer, is there a playoff game in their future if they lose?
Osbourn (6-3, 2-1) looks to end the regular season on a high note as they host Freedom-South Riding (1-7, 0-2) on Friday night. After getting off to an unusually slow 0-2 start, the Eagles have won six of their last seven games. Their only loss came on the road against Broad Run by a single touch down. This week's match-up is the last game of the regular season, but not the last game of the season if Osbourn can defeat Freedom—a team that has struggled all season. With the win, Osbourn will be in good position to continue into the postseason. Going into the final week of the season, Osbourn, Broad Run, and Battlefield all sit in a three-way tie atop the Cedar Run District. If all three teams win this weekend, the district championship …

Cedar Run District football powerhouses face-off Thursday night.
Osbourn faces its first—and likely toughest—district game as they host Battlefield tonight at 7 p.m. The Eagles are coming off a four game win streak, but will that be enough to propel them to victory? "Battlefield is always good. They are well coached and don't shoot themselves in the foot, so we need to be aggressive," Head Coach Steve Schultze said. "I'm excited, it's always a great game." Although this is the first district game of the season, it carries a little more weight than a normal district opener. Since 2005, Battlefield or Osbourn has won the Cedar Run District title. The Eagles are reigning district champions and the Bobcats are reigning AAA Division 6 state champions. The match-up has all the ingredients of a great high …
