Strictly an emotional letdown after Sunday’s classic.
Maryland broke a 5-5 tie with No. 1 Florida State on Kyle Convissar’stwo-RBI squeeze bunt in the eighth inning and the Terps recorded their ninth win of the season against a ranked team with an 8-5 victory over the Seminoles Monday night.
On a night when Maryland (30-22, 9-18 ACC) reached 30 wins for just the third time in program history, nearly everyone on the roster played a part. Eight starters had at least one hit, while all three of … Read More »
What a tremendous pleasure it was last night to sit and listen to the one and only Frank Deford. Inhis honor I wore my #19 throwback to the event and he immediately could not stop talking about Johnny U once he spotted the jersey. Some of his topics;
Frank went into lengthy discussion on his relationship with Wilt Chamberlain and the personal rivalry with Bill Russell.
When asked about the greatest game he remembered, he quickly talked about 1958.
Deford … Read More »
Midfielder Kyle Dixon had a banner night with 10 points on four goals and three assists as the Chesapeake Bayhawks captured their home opener by routing the Ohio Machine, 23-11, before a franchise-record crowd of 10,162 at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium.
Dixon scored his 100th career goal and also cranked in three 2-pointers to set the Major League Lacrosse all-time record in … Read More »
Maryland was awarded the third overall seed in the upcoming 2012 NCAA Women’s Lacrosse Championship Sunday.

That’s right, Steve Blake scored 8 in the 4th quarter, blocked a layup by Galinari, and grabbed a key late rebound in perhaps his finest effort as a Laker. It was definitely great to watch!!!
The seedings are out, pretty much as expected except for the fact that Denver and Bill Tierney received an undeserved bid. Maryland will travel to Lehigh Sunday night at 730. The winner will take on the #2 seed Johns Hopkins and Stony Brook. But that’s speculation for next week. Comments from Quint and Carcaterra:Memo-12
Here are the match ups:
# 1Loyola vs Canisius
#8 UNC vs Denver
#5 UVA vs Princeton
#4 Notre Dame vs Yale
#3 Duke vs … Read More »
Are you kidding me–Chris Davis pitched 2 scoreless innings after going 0-8 at bat. What? Buck Showaalter basically threw in the towel when he sent the first baseman out to pitch the bottom of the 16th of a 6-6 game. Only a great play by JJ Hardy and Wieters allowed the O’s to get to the 17th.
My only question was after the O’s scored 3 on Adan Jones 3 run HR —why not then bring in one of the … Read More »
Citing the desire to spend more time with his family, the Commish informed our Mayor Wednesday that this would be his final year. What a tremendous job he has done and his search for a replacement will be a difficult one. Commissioner Bealefeld has also been at the forefront of the growth of lacrosse in the city, a role I hope he will not relinquish.
Some observations of an incredible but losing effort from the Caps:
Goalie Braden Holtby was off the charts spectacular. Though I heard the post game guys on the radio saying that overall the Caps had more chances, it just seemed to me that the Rangers were just able to fire away especially in OT.
The Rangers appeared to be step quicker and overall in better shape as the game wore on. Mike Green, Brooks laic, John Carlson, and Roman Hamrik … Read More »
