Pause a piston?

I was charged with the job of stopping a pnumatic piston in the middle of it's stroke. I first thought of getting both sides of the solenoid to fire at once and realized that it wouldn't work.

Can I take two single throw solenoids and have them act against eachother in the middle of the stroke? I haven't tried it yet and need ideas. If anyone has tried this let me know!
