There is plenty to cheer about on the field hockey pitch this fall, as Norfolk Academy has claimed the number-one spot in the 757Teamz regional Top 15 rankings — and is climbing in national rankings as well, according to the Virginian-Pilot.
The Bulldogs’ rise to the top of the local standings is a testament to the hard work of the players, coaches, and the broader Norfolk Academy community. Staying on top of a competitive regional field hockey landscape is no small feat, and the team’s continued ascent in national rankings signals that their success is drawing attention well beyond Hampton Roads.
Field hockey has long been a source of pride in the 757, with schools across the region fielding talented squads each autumn. Norfolk Academy’s position at the summit of the 757Teamz poll puts the school in elite company and gives local fans a reason to pack the sidelines and cheer on their hometown team.
The national recognition adds an extra layer of excitement to what is shaping up to be a memorable season. As the fall schedule continues, all eyes will be on Norfolk Academy to see how far this talented group can go — both regionally and on the broader national stage.
Whether you are a longtime supporter or a newcomer to the sport, now is a great time to catch a game and witness one of Norfolk’s top athletic programs in action this season.
