Falcons Swoop In, End Rykens Repeat Hopes

By Chris Stevens Staff Writer LEONARDTOWN St. Marys Ryken boys lacrosse coach John Sothoron preaches that there are two games within each match his Knights play; the first half and the second half. The second game was one of Rykens worst in 2008 and it ended their season as visiting Good Counsel took a 10-7 victory over the Knights in the Washington Catholic Athletic Conference semi-finals Thursday afternoon. You have to keep your composure in big games, Sothoron said after the Knights were beaten by the Falcons for the second time this season. Its an emotional game, but you have to play smart and we made some mistakes. The Knights, conference champions last season (breaking a nine-year string by DeMatha Catholic), looked as if they were going to come away with the victory and their second straight trip the title game after senior attacker Zack Angel spun and fired a shot over the right shoulder of Falcons goalie Patrick McEnerney for a

Raiders Handle Braves In Playoff Opener

Norris Fast Start Sparks Leonardtown
By Chris Stevens Staff Writer LEONARDTOWN It didnt take Stephen Norris long to get fired up for Leonardtown Highs 4A-3A East Region quarterfinal matchup with Chopticon. A senior attacker headed to lacrosse power Towson University next season, Norris scored two of his six goals in the first 52 seconds to jumpstart the Raiders 19-6 win over the Braves Saturday afternoon. Stephen is really excited about the postseason, Raiders coach Matt Chew said. He believes that you should lead by your actions. We came out with a lot of intensity, and played hard, Norris said, who shared the team lead in goals with Brian Dallaire. Its hard not to. Its the playoffs. Norris first goal came just 17 seconds into the game off of a quick feed from Dallaire from behind the net. Just 35 seconds later, after Mike Hebb won a faceoff, Igor Laray dashed toward the front of the net and found Norris on his left-hand side. He then zipped a shot past Chopticon goalkeeper Zack Flowers for a 2-0 lead, and Leonardtown coasted from there, although Chew doesnt exactly see it that way. It was a while before we felt comfortable, he says. Im a firm believer that on any day of the week, any team can be beaten. Keeping pace with Norris six-goal output was Dallaire, who continues to astound and amaze as one half of a dynamic duo-style act with fellow senior Kenny Aicher. While the bigger and stronger Norris uses his strength to get off shots and wear his opponent down, Aicher (who dished off six assists Saturday afternoon) and Dallaire use dizzying speed and unparalleled skill to beat their defenders to the net, and before anyone can blink, the ball is already in the back of the net. Its nice to watch them work, Norris said, because teams might focus too much on me and there they are. Kenny and Brian are like Matt Danowski and Zach Greer down at Duke. Theyre really good. Dallaire doesnt worry about opponents catching on to their amazing chemistry because of the preparedness they have in each game. We have great coaches who help us study film and break things down so if teams do See Lacrosse page B-2

Raider Girls Advance In Regionals

By Chris Stevens Staff Writer LEONARDTOWN Saturday mornings nasty weather couldnt put a damper on the spirits of the Leonardtown girls lacrosse team. Led by solid goaltender by senior Katie Hammerer and goals by nine different players, the Raiders moved on the 4A-3A East semi-finals with an 11-4 win over Great Mills at Raider Stadium. After a slight first half hiccup before beating Patxuent 15-8 to close out the regular season and the SMAC championship last week, the Raiders came out and played a full game, something that Leonardtown coach Mike Denny termed as being crucial. That was our main goal, to play a full 50 minutes, Denny said. We even changed our warm up routine. I do want to give Patuxent credit, they played as well against us as they have all season, I dont think it was poor play on our part, Patuxent played well. After briefly trailing 1-0 in the first half, the Raiders got started with four consecutive goals from Courtney Williams, Taeler Errington, Jessica Reabe (who with Joanna Bennett were the only players to score twice for Leonardtown) and Krista Tippett. Lauren Donovan Katelyn Blondino, Emily Hall and Kristina Ferraro also scored goals for Leonardtown (14-1 on the season). Great Mills offensive contributions came from Kelly reed, Natalia Donaghue and Morgan Ruloff. With the offense in gear, the air-tight Raider defense limited Great Mills to just four goals, a total Denny estimates has the See Leonardtown Girls page B-2 Angels 13 Yankees 3

The St. Marys Angels beat the Yankees Tuesday night at Dorsey Park. Hunter Stone, Ben Wietzke and Clark Ripple combined to pitch a four-hit game and recorded 10 strike-outs between them. The Angels hitters were hot, led by Warren Forinash and Brandon Adams who both had three hits and reached base safely in every at bat. Angels left fielder Jonathan Morse also came up big going, 2 for 2 with 2 RBIs. The game started out close as the Yankees scored in the top of the first on a walk and a double by Brendon Lessell. The Angels couldnt respond as they went down in order in the bottom half of the first. Stone stopped the Yankees in the second and it looked as though the Yankees were going to do the same as they put down the first two batters in order in the bottom of the inning. Then, Forinash and Stone had back-to-back singles and Angels right fielder Nathaniel Silbershlag came through with a 2-RBI shot into left center field. After that it, was all Angels as they outscored the Yankees 11-1 in the next 4 innings.

We plan to try to keep it up until states, Aicher adds. The Braves, who got goals from six different players Saturday, won their first round playoff game Thursday at Meade high school 11-4, led by Chas Guys six goals. However, against a Leonardtown team on a mission, the Braves came up short, although the teams improvement over the course of the season has pleased head coach Mike Boyle greatly.

There is always deep emotion anytime GM & Leonardtown play each other and this game was no different. I thought our girls gave 100% effort throughout the entire game, and thats all we have ever asked of them, Hageman said. They play with great heart. They certainly did not disappoint us. We have had a great season. She also feels that it wont be long before the Hornets catch up with the Raiders and become one of the top teams in the conference. I believe the girls lacrosse program at Great Mills continues to build momentum and gain respect. I do not think Leonardtown was taking us lightly and knew we would give them our best shot. They have nice all around talent. Its always fun to play them, and I am already looking forward to seeing them on the field again next year.

A View From The Bleachers

Pop Those Trouble Bubbles
By Ronald N. Guy Jr. Contributing Writer Five years ago, Kobe Bean Bryant was jetting between a Colorado courtroom and L.A. Lakers games. He was in the process of a meteoric fall from NBA golden boy to vilified, accused rapist. Sponsors were bailing, fans were booing and the star player with the infectious smile had become a toxic image for the NBA. Bryant had been considered one of the NBAs good guys, at a time when the league was desperate for positive imagery. But in July 2003, this smart, articulate, squeaky-clean husband and expectant father went to Colorado for medical treatment on an ailing knee. He ended up at a resort in Eagle, Colorado where he had a sexual encounter with the front desk attendant. She alleged rape, the Eagle county District Attorneys office pressed charges and a lengthy legal battle began. Well never know exactly what happened in that Colorado hotel room. What we do know is one of the NBAs brightest stars had random sex with a woman other than his wife. The criminal charges against Bryant were later dropped and the civil suit was settled out of court. So while Bryant was never convicted of any criminal offense, he was an admitted adulterer. Unfortunately, this is neither uncommon nor does the public find it particularly offensive for most star athletes; infidelity and stardom being frequent dance partners. Bryant succumbed to the intoxicating lifestyle of the pro athlete, the roar of adoring crowds and the sense of invincibility they breed. Given societys general tolerance of infidelity, Bryant probably was judged too harshly in the court of public opinion. But he represented all that was good in professional sports and we expected more of him. Sadly, when this saga ended, he seemed to have more in common with Mike Tyson than he did with character stalwarts such as Art Monk, Darrell Green or Grant Hill. We all meander between our professional and private lives and when one is out of sorts, a common coping mechanism is to seek solace in the other. Bryant was no different. His therapist became the basketball courtbriefly. In the years following his legal troubles, the Lakers declined from perennial championship contender to a marginal playoff team. Bryants relationship with star center Shaquille ONeal deteriorated, contributing to the latters acrimonious departure from the team, he fell out of favor with Head Coach Phil Jackson and, as recently as this past summer, he attempted to force the Lakers to trade him. For most basketball fans, the passage of time created a psychological distance from Bryants worst of times, but until this season, he was still far from the preColorado, Hollywood darling; that rare player whose game, regardless of the jersey he wears, is impossible not to ap-
plaud. So how appropriate it seems for Hollywood to be the setting of this return to glory. During this past season, some of the young players on the Lakers matured, the front office made a shrewd in-season trade and Bryant became a better teammate. More importantly, the Lakers began to win with regularity. The team finished with the best record in the Western Conference and is once again poised for a title run. Last week, as flashbulbs popped, Bryant, the former fallen star of the NBA, once again adorned that infectious smile and proudly accepted his first Most Valuable Player trophy from NBA Commissioner David Stern. At that moment the events of Colorado seemed a distance memory, filed away firmly in the past. Bryant, having long since reconciled with his wife and now a proud father of two daughters, has seemingly completed his professional reclamation. How did Bryant navigate this journey? And why have so many steroid users in baseball failed to accomplish the same? In many respects, Bryants transgressions should be viewed as more offensive than, say, those of Rafael Palmeiro, Mark McGwire, Barry
Bonds or Roger Clemens. While those baseball stars cheated themselves, the game and fans, baseball is, after all, just a game. Bryants act forever changed the lives of real people (Bryant, his accuser and his wife). In the spirit of simple answers to complex problems, a childrens book and familiar parental lesson may hold the answer to Bryants transformation. Weve all heard a parent or teacher encourage us to admit our mistakes and to tell the truth. Thats timeless advice. In fact, I was reading a Care Bear book the other day (did I just admit that in print?) that used trouble bubbles as a metaphor for lifes mistakes. The advice of mother Care Bear to child was to pop those trouble bubbles (by telling the truth and admitting your mistakes)lest they linger and get bigger (more problematic). Bryants story includes an element that is absent from the story of our fallen baseball heroes: an admission of fault and an apology. Shortly after the accusations against him became public, Bryant held a press conference, admitted his adultery, expressed his disgust with himself and apologized to his wife, the Lakers and basketball fans.
In that act, he opened the door for us to forgive. And forgiveness is what sports fans do best. Conversely, baseballs arrogant denials are endless. Baseball gave us Palmeiro wagging his finger in denial at Congress and McGwires pathetic request to simply not dwell on the past. Bonds smugly soiled the greatest record in professional sports (the all-time homerun record) and Clemens fall from grace seems to get more bizarre and disturbing with each passing week. In addition to cheating (by all reasonable accounts) on the field, he appears to be a serial cheater off it (whats the affair count up to now?). My how things could have been different for our baseball heroes had they introduced their steroid trouble bubbles to a pin. Instead, we were left waiting for an admission and an apology that never came. Overtime: I hardly feel qualified to appropriately capture the story of John Challis, so Ill leave it to the professionals. In short, John is a high school student-athlete battling terminal cancer. (article title: Teen is running out of innings, but the game still isnt over). Have a box of tissues handy.

No. 14 St. Marys (Md.) Bows Out of NCAA Tournament

Salisbury, Md. The No. 1 Salisbury University womens lacrosse team moves on to Sundays NCAA Division III Womens Lacrosse Regional Final as the Sea Gulls (21-0) eliminated St. Marys College of Maryland from the 2008 NCAA Tournament with a decisive 22-9 victory in second round action Saturday. The Seahawks have their 2008 campaign come to close today as St. Marys finish the season at 15-6 overall. SMCM was making its seventh NCAA Division III Womens Lacrosse Tournament and now holds a 3-7 mark in NCAA tourney action. Todays match-up was the third meeting between the two teams this season with the Sea Gulls coming out on top in all three games, including an 18-11 win on April 5 at St. Marys during the regular season and an 18-7 victory on April 25 in the Capital Athletic Conference Championship at Salisbury. Senior attacker Sue Ackermann (Sykesville, Md./Liberty) finished the afternoon with game-highs of seven goals and 10 points, while also dishing out three assists. Sophomore attacker Kim Cudmore (Bel Air, Md./Bel Air) added seven points on two goals and a gamebest five assists. The Sea Gulls opened up with a 6-0 run as Ackermann picked up two goals and an assist. The 2008 CAC Rookie-of-the-Year, freshman midfielder Aileen McCausland (Phoenix, Md./ Hereford) broke up SUs momentum with an unassisted goal at 17:42. Salisbury scored two more before junior midfielder Allie Zerhusen (Cockeysville, Md./Park) netted the Seahawks second score of the game at 11:33. Junior midfielder Lauren Carrier (Crownsville, Md./Old Mill) contributed five goals to pace the Seahawks and Carrier has now scored at least one goal in 42 consecutive games, four games from breaking the NCAA Division III womens lacrosse record of 45 set by the University of Scrantons Liz Baumbach from 2001 to 2003. St. Marys received goals from McCausland and Carrier in the first halfs final minute to make it 13-4 at the half. The Sea Gulls dominated the draw in the first 30 minutes, posting a 14-3 advantage, as well as controlling ground balls 7 to 2. The Seahawks moved to within 13-5 at 28:45 as SMCM scored the first goal of the second half with a goal from Carrier. SU scored the next two before St. Marys tallied three in a row, including a pair from Carrier, to be down 15-8 at 18:07. Salisbury closed out the game on a 7-1 run to post the 13-goal triumph and advance to the round of eight. McCausland chipped in two goals and an assist for St. Marys, while Zerhusen had two goals and sophomore midfielder Kelsey Branch (Jarrettsville, Md./North Harford) dished out two assists. Junior goalkeeper Sonja Stuart (Rockville, Md./Good Counsel) made nine saves, with eight coming in the first half, to keep Salisburys hopes of an NCAA crown alive. Freshman Ella Schoming (Westminster, Md./ North Carroll) played tough in goal, making 11 stops in the loss. Story Courtesy of St. Marys College Department of Sports Information
ond half scoring advantage. The Falcons took the lead for good when team captain Andrew Polous fired a shot from the left side of the field past Ryken goalie Andtew Wascavage at with 5:55 to go in the third quarter. After Grant Romano Gates scored at the 8:57 mark of the fourth, the celebration began and the Knights would not have the chance to repeat
their heroics from 2007. Sothoron did not want to take anything away from the Falcons, who defeated Ryken 11-9 in Olney, Md., April 15th. Good Counsel passed the ball extremely well, and they outplayed us, he said. They came out in the second half and got off to a good start. We didnt. Bryant Schmidt and An-
gel scored three goals and two goals respectively for Ryken, while Addison Goodley and Yates also got on the board. Polous, Bryce Dabb and James Bionti scored two goals apiece to lead Good Counsel, who will play in next weeks WCAC title game at the University of Maryland-College Park.
Fisherman Catches 51 Pound Rockfish

Rockfish season on the Potomac River started off with a bang for a resident of St. Marys County. On April 25th, Phil Zalesak of Tall Timbers caught the biggest rockfish of his life when he boated a 51 pound rockfish while trolling the waters of the lower Potomac. The Tackle Box in Lexington Park measured the fish at 50 inches in length and 30 inches in girth. Since the fish was too big to net, Zalesak boated the fish by lifting the fish from the water by its gill plate and lower jaw.

Tornado Preparedness
Citizens are urged to be aware and be prepared for weather emergencies, particularly for tornado events. If there is a tornado warning for any area in St. Marys County, the countys Emergency Communications staff will activate the Fire & Rescue Sirens with a Take Cover signal for Tornado Warnings. This signal lasts for 13 cycles and is significantly different from a fire or rescue call signal. While this system is tested on the first Saturday of every month at noon, it will also be tested this Saturday, May 10 at noon. Please be aware of the monthly test and do not confuse it with an actual Tornado Warning. Things you can do to prepare include: Familiarize yourself with the terms that are used to identify a tornado hazard. A tornado watch means a tornado is possible in your area. You should monitor NOAA Weather Radio local radio and television news outlets for the latest developments. A tornado warning is when a tornado is actually occurring; take shelter immediately.

Moe has protected for the past 15 years are Abraham Lincolns summer home outside Washington, the bus on which Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat in 1955, the historic campus of St. Elizabeths Hospital in Washington, and Ernest Hemingways house in Cuba, where the author wrote For Whom the Bell Tolls and The Old Man and the Sea. Moe was given an honorary doctor of letters degree from the College.
Also receiving honorary degrees were C. Bernard Bernie Fowler, former state senator and crusader for the health of the Chesapeake Bay; Agnes Kane Callum, a descendant of the enslaved families of Sotterley plantation and authority on Marylands African-American history; and Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, former lieutenant governor of Maryland and this years senior fellow in the Colleges Nitze honors
program. In absentia, honorary degrees were presented to Judge James A. Kenney, III, former president of the St. Marys College of Maryland Foundation and the longest serving of all adjunct faculty at the college and Muhammad Yunus, founder of the Grameen Bank and recipient of the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize. A full list of graduates and their degrees will be announced later in the month.

Critter Corner
May 18-24 Is Dog Bite Prevention Week
The third full week of May is National Dog Bite Prevention Week, and the Tri-County Animal Shelter would like to present you with the following information to help keep you and your loved ones safe. Each year, nearly five million people are bitten by dogs. Of those, almost 70% are children. On average, about a dozen people die each year from dog bites. There are many reasons why dogs bite: out of fear, to protect their territory, or to establish dominance. However, there is good news-most dog bites can be prevented. There are ways that you and your family can avoid being bitten. Everyone should be cautious around strange dogs, and should treat their own pets with respect. Babies and children should never be left alone with a dog. Never disturb a dog that is sick, sleeping, eating, playing with a toy, or nursing puppies. Dont run past a dog, since they naturally like to chase things. Never approach a dog you dont know or a dog that is alone without its owner, especially if the dog is behind a fence, tied up, or in a parked car. If a dog approaches you, stay still. Usually the dog will sniff you, then go away when it determines that you are not a threat. If a dog does seem dangerous, avoid eye contact and try to stay still until the dog leaves, or back away slowly until the dog is out of sight. If you own a dog, you can significantly reduce the risk that he will bite someone. Socialize your dog by introducing him to many different types of people and situations. Train your dog to learn basic commands and teach him appropriate behavior. Dont allow your dog to run at large, and dont chain your dog outside since he may become territorial and aggressive. Have your pet spayed or neutered, as this makes them less likely to bite, and keep them current on their rabies shot. Make sure

that your dog treats all people as friends, because it is not realistic to expect him to decide who belongs on your property and who doesnt. As a pet owner, also keep in mind that while most insurance companies insure homeowners with dogs, some companies wont insure for what they consider dangerous breeds. However, even if your dog does not fall into this category, once he bites someone he poses an increased risk, so insurers may charge a higher premium, decide not to renew the homeowners policy, exclude the dog from coverage or suggest the owner find the dog another home. If you or someone you know is bitten by a dog, immediately wash the wound thoroughly with soap and water, contact your physician for additional care and advice, and report the bite to your local animal control office.

Calzone a Fan Favorite of Italian Cuisine

Few ethnic cuisines are more widely enjoyed than Italian food. With so much delicious variety to choose from, many people would be hard pressed to find at least one Italian dish they didnt like indulging in from time to time. One of the more popular Italian dishes among Americans is calzone, which can be made with a number of different ingredients. For those looking to entertain an intimate group of people, try the following recipe for Calzone All Parmigiana from Maxine Clarks Pizza, Calzone & Focaccia (Ryland, Peters & Small). and roast for 20 minutes. Lightly squeeze any excess moisture out of the mozzarella then cut it into cubes. Remove the roasting pan from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before stirring in the tomatoes, mozzarella and basil. Season to taste. Roll or pull the risen balls of dough into 8-inch circles directly onto two sheets of baking parchment. Slide these onto two rimless baking sheets. Spread a quarter of the vegetable mixture on one half of each calzone, leaving just over 12 inch around the edge for sealing. Season well. Fold the uncovered half of the dough over the filling. Pinch and twist the edges firmly together so that the filling doesnt escape during cooking. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with Parmesan. Working quickly, open the oven door and slide paper and calzone onto the hot baking sheets. Bake for 30 minutes, swapping the baking sheets around halfway or until the crust is puffed up and golden. Remove from the oven and let stand 2 to 3 minutes before serving (this will allow the filling to cool slightly). Serve hot or warm.

Preheat the oven to 400 F for at least 30 minutes. Uncover the dough, punch out the air, and divide into four balls.

SIDEBAR: Basic Pizza Dough

Makes 2 medium-crust pizzas, 10-12 inches 1 cake compressed yeast, 1 packet active dry yeast, or 2 teaspoons quick-rising yeast 12 teaspoon sugar 1 cup hand-hot water 4 cups Italian 0 or 00 flour, or unbleached all-purpose flour, plus extra to dust 1 teaspoon fine sea salt 1 tablespoon olive oil In a medium bowl, cream the compressed yeast with the sugar and beat in the hand-hot water. Leave for 10 minutes
until frothy. For other yeasts, follow the manufacturers instructions. Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl and make a well in the center. Pour in the yeast mixture, then the olive oil. Mix together with a round-bladed knife, then use your hands until the dough comes together. Tip out onto a lightly floured surface, wash and dry your hands, then knead briskly for 5 to 10 minutes until smooth, shiny and elastic. (Five minutes for warm hands, 10 minutes for cold hands.) Dont add extra flour, a wetter dough is better. If you feel the dough is sticky, flour your hands, not the dough. The dough should be quite soft. To test if the dough is ready, roll it into a fat sausage, take each end in either hand, lift the dough up, and stretch the dough downward, gently wiggling it up and down it should stretch out quite easily. If it doesnt, it needs more kneading. Shape the dough into a neat ball. Put in an oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel, and let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in size about 112 hours. Uncover the dough, punch out the air, then tip out onto a lightly floured work surface. Divide into two and shape into smooth balls. Place the balls well apart on baking parchment, cover loosely with plastic wrap, and let rise for 60 to 90 minutes.
