Dan Sousa

Dan Sousa is a Loudoun-based journalist, writer of the blog Ramblin' Man, and founder/senior editor for LoudounPrepSports.com.

LoudounPrepSports grew to more than 8,000 pages by the time it merged with DigitalSports.com in July 2008. LPS has the same mission today it had back in 2005: provide coverage of all high school sports in Loudoun County one of the most affluent area in Virginia and one of the fastest growing county's in the United States.

Dan, in between watching his older son Cooper play high school sports and coaching his younger son Ryder in Ashburn, continues to provide content for LPS. Rain or shine you can find him along the sidelines at the big and small prep games in Loudoun.
