26% save percentage right now.

If you are the 2nd string goalie - you can’t be too happy right now.

Is there such a thing as a happy second string goalie?

Not the the goalie who is upset...his parents are

Poor weather conditions always favor the less-skilled team as a fast track favors the more-skilled team. I'll take the Terps in a mud-fest, 9-8!

Victor Lilly is no longer the HC at St. Mary's Annapolis I am not completely surprised as St. Mary's is consistently losing the home grown AA county talent to Spalding. In addition, the Kent Island boys where I live are driving right past Annapolis to Severn. In the past 4 seasons against the other...

From what I can tell: Boys' Latin #1 and Spalding #2 each get a bye on Friday. #6 Loyola plays at #3 Calvert Hall - winner gets Spalding next Tuesday at NMCMS. #5 Gilman plays at #4 McDonogh - winner get Boys' Latin next Tuesday at NMCMS. The ironic thing is that the quarter-final games are the sam...

Spalding won easily, 14-4. They have now won 7 in a row since losing to Gilman on April 9th.

Friday nights game at Calvert Hall vs Spalding will go a long way in determining the #2 seed assuming Boys' Latin beats Severn and St. Paul's and is the #1 seed. I have a hard time seeing BL stumbling in either of those games. Both Calvert Hall and Spalding beat McDonogh so they have the head-to-hea...

Just taught my son about intangible asset market economics playing monopoly. Kid kept landing in jail and I had two get out of jail free cards I sold him my two cards successively for 350 and 450k Wow!

Geneva - thanks for your reply but, "I believe it’s because of passing of minimum requirements for attendance and other aspects. Whether that’s fair or not doesn’t matter as the NCAA is DOA and just doesn’t know it yet."...does not really provide any clarity. JMU was not my son's first cho...

I attended College GameDay last Saturday at James Madison, it was electric. My wife and I got to the Quad at 7:00 am and there were already about 10,000 people there. My son got there at 3:00 am and he was near the stage that the Jonas Brothers performed on. All told they estimated 26,000 people eve...

John Carroll has all the potential in the world to compete in lacrosse. Nice campus. Good location. Good academics. Relatively affordable. They are the only private school in Harford County. They even have dorms on campus. They are a sleeping giant. And it would be great for the school and league t...

Hearing the school is finally serious about supporting the program. But the interest is light. Too bad. There is some talent/promise there. The sad part of this is that the coach who seemingly got the short end of the stick is left wondering why? Why was what I was doing was not good enough? What a...

In early March my wife and I visited Ole Miss with my adopted bi-racial son, who if you saw him walking down the street you would say he is black. My wife and I are white. We were fortunate enough to hook up with a girl who we knew from home who had just graduated and was a grad student. She jumped ...

JC Fan - thanks for your thoughtful perspective. John Carroll is essentially a 'B' conference school athletically, right? What initiated the push to the 'A' conference for lacrosse? JC moved to the 'A' in 2015 (?) thinking they were going to keep the Harford County boys at home? I love what you have...

As a life long educator, I always encourage parents who have summer birthday boys to consider holding them back from kindergarten because boys typically mature later than girls. They graduate HS at 18 and turn 19 that summer - absolutely nothing wrong with that. Why would you put your child at a dis...

180 days is plenty if we had smaller class sizes. Kids are learning so much more than we did growing up, like we learned so much more than our parents did. Hope I'm not overdoing it, here. I would guess that you are imagining 180 instructional classes, but when you factor in schedules where the cla...

180 days is plenty if we had smaller class sizes. Kids are learning so much more than we did growing up, like we learned so much more than our parents did. Certainly another way to look at it and every teacher I know would love that! Private tutoring is a great way to move a student forward. I beli...

If the school year were to be increased from 180 days to 225 days, a 20% increase, then a 20% increase for all teachers and staff. Where does that money come from? A 9-12 week on and 3-4 week off schedule for K-5 children is extremely difficult because of establishing routines after a 3-4 week break...

MD - I live on Kent Island - I coached soccer and lacrosse at Kent Island HS for 20 years, hanging up my lanyard in 2019. I have taught at the middle school level on Kent Island since 2000. I was at Loyola Blakefield from 1986-1999 - coached soccer & lacrosse there as well. I attended public sc...
