Raiders Fall Short In Regional Final

Two-Time State Champion Falcons Come Away With One-Goal Win
By Chris Stevens Staff Writer LEONARDTOWN The frustration, disappointment and lament was clear on the Leonardtown portion of the field last Wednesday night. The Raiders, who coasted to 4A3A East Regional wins over Chopticon and Huntingtown by a combined score of 34-10, came up just short against two-time state champion Severna Park of Anne Arundel County, losing an 11-10 decision in the East Regional Final at Raider Stadium. It was a battle, said Raiders head coach Matt Chew. We felt like were in it and it was there for us, unfortunately it didnt happen. Brian Dallaire led the Raiders with five goals, including a laser from the left side of the net off of a Stephen Norris feed that cut the Falcons lead to one goal with 35 seconds remaining. Mike Hebb won the ensuing face-off for Leonardtown, but the Raiders could not get off a good shot in the final seconds. I expected it to be close, because Leonardtown has a great team and a lot of players that can shoot, said Falcons coach Larry Kramer.

Theyre the first team to score double digits on us all year. It did not come easy for either side as both teams worked extremely hard for their combined 21 goals. The Falcons, who have won three
4A-3A state titles in the previous four seasons, jumped out to a 5-1 lead in the second quarter courtesy of goals by five different players (Sean Price, Adam McBride, Pat Morrison, Sam Jones and Brent Neilsen).
Instead of folding the tent, the Raiders countered with a three-goal blitz near the end of the period to shrink Severna Parks lead to one at halftime. They took that momentum See Raiders Lacrosse page B-3
Seahawks Edge Raiders for Regional Crown

Leonardtown Outlasted In 10 Innings
By Chris Stevens Staff Writer L E ONA R DT OW N It took 10 innings and one clutch hit, but the wonderful journey of the Leonardtown High School baseball team came to an end Saturday afternoon. Sophomore infielder Kevin Loftis smacked a two-run single in the top half of the 10th, and it was the difference as South River edged the Raiders 2-0 in the 4A East Regional finals, a tightly-played extra inning affair. Im very proud of the way they played, Leonardtown coach Ray Sapp said of his team, which included nine seniors. They played 100 percent better this season than last. The Raiders, 6-14 last season, finished the year 11-7 after defeating North County High School and Thomas Stone by respective scores of 3-0 and 5-2 to reach the regional final. They came up just one win short of the State Semi-finals, set to begin in Hanover, Md. this week. The hard luck pitcher for the Raiders was senior Chris Bell, who really stepped up his play in the postseason. Nicknamed The Fireman, Bell was scorching hot at the plate as well as on the mound, going six-for-nine along with not allowing a run in two regional playoff starts. After going three-for-four at the plate and driving in two runs in Thursdays 5-2 win over Thomas Stone, he went seven innings Saturday afternoon, striking out eight Seahawks and working his way out of jam after to jam to keep South River scoreless. I faced one of the best hitting teams in the state, but I felt confident, Bell said. I was able to get ahead of hitters and Andrew Burgess, my catcher called a great game. As good as Bell was on the mound, South Rivers staff-by-committee did just as well. Three pitchers, starting with Alex Cherry and ending with freshman Zack Morris earning the save, combined to hold the Raiders to four hits and stranded six base-runners. The Seahawk defense backed their pitchers up, turning four double plays to keep Leonardtown from seriously threatening. After the teams traded zeros for nine innings, the Seahawks came up in the top of the 10th anxious and ready to end the two hour, 45 minute affair. Once junior catcher Bobby Hite walked, stole second base and advanced to See Baseball page B-2

I give all the praise to Leonardtown, Dunn said. We just beat an excellent team and an excellent program. They are very well coached. Dunn also added that it took the Seahawks eight innings in last seasons regional playoffs to turn back the Raiders, a testament to how tough and good a team Leonardtown has been in his eyes. The compliments were of no consolation to Sapp, who put his disappointment into two words. Losing stinks, he joked with a chuckle. I wouldnt care if were playing South River or whoever, I hate to lose. It was also a difficult time for the senior-laden Raider players, led by Burgess. Weve been waiting for years to make a run at states, but we didnt execute, we didnt get the timely hits that they did, Burgess said solemnly.

Bad Seeds Spoil Opportunity for Growth
County High Schools Need Less Familiar Competition in Postseason To Succeed
By Chris Stevens Staff Writer There is an age-old saying that familiarity breeds contempt. If this is the case, I know good and well that St. Marys County public high school athletic teams are sick and tired of seeing their Southern Maryland Athletic Conference foes from Calvert and Charles County three times a season sometimes if you count the class and regional playoffs. Due to a unique seeding quirk employed by the Maryland Public Scholastic Second Schools Athletic Association (MPSSAA), the possibility of drawing out-of-conference and teams from other counties in the regional post-season tournament are slim and almost none. Why, you ask? The top four seeds are determined rather easily; the teams that have won their conference or division earn one of the top four spots as well as a bye into the regional quarterfinals. As for the other 12 teams in a given region? Well, their fates are left to the luck of the draw. Literally. Those twelve spots are randomly selected to plug in the gaps after the first four spots are handed out. Because of this, more often than not, you will get at the very least some interesting seeding results and playoff match-ups despite the records that teams have during the year. With no disrespect intended towards the Chopticon high school softball team, despite coming away with just one win in the 2008 season, the Braves drew a six-seed, which wouldve given them a first round game. Even with that, since there was no team to match-up with them in that particular portion of the bracket, the Braves were awarded a bye into the 3A South Quarterfinals. Of course Chopticon then ran into the powerhouse of SMAC and apparently the region, La Plata High School and their season came to an end. Unfortunately, the brackets didnt turn out as rosy for the Braves girls lacrosse team. Despite finishing second behind Leonardtown in the SMAC regular season standings, the Braves were given a 12th seed spot in the regional bracket, and after defeating 5th-seeded Glen Burnie 13-6, they fell to 4th-seeded South River High School 17-4 in the quarters.
One team with a single win earns a higher seeding and because of the way that particular bracket shook out, a first round bye. Meanwhile, another team with a second place finish in their conference and a plus-.500 record during the regular season plays two straight postseason games on the road (two different sports yes, but home-field advantage is something that you relish the opportunity to have regardless of the sport). Anyone see whats wrong with this particular picture? If not, let me help you. If high school athletics in Southern Maryland, especially St. Marys County, are going to have a chance to thrive and grow so that they can be mentioned in the same breath as Anne Arundel, Prince Georges and Howard County schools just to name a few, the post-season tournaments should afford SMAC teams the opportunity to test themselves against the best of the best, not against each other for a second or third time during the course of a season. The only way Southern Maryland schools can measure themselves truthfully and fairly against their D.C. and Baltimore-area competition is to do battle with said competition. The current seeding system doesnt help that cause at all. What makes more sense is if you indeed are going to include every team in every conference in post-season play, the best thing to do is to keep the current format of four conference champions in each region getting the top
four seeds and first-round byes, that way success during the regular season can still be rewarded in some form or fashion. After that, the teams should be lined up and matched up according to record. With that formula in place, the likelihood of SMAC teams facing each other in the playoffs lessens because more often than not, a team from a different county and conference will have a better record than the SMAC teams that have played one another twice already. There would be opponents lined up to argue against this modest proposal of mine; I am aware of that. Why? Simple. Its too much like right, to steal another one from my mother. Why take the time out of everyones seemingly busy schedule to revamp and reconstruct the seedings and brackets for post-season tournaments so that teams that are indeed talented and successful can face off against one another? Why would you attempt to clean up a messy situation, forcing all teams involved to dig deeper for the necessary intensity to take their game to the next level? Its too easy to let sleeping dogs lie and keep the current system in place even though it causes more head-scratching than a Head and Shoulders commercial. At least that how it would seem to the guy thats only been here for just a little over seven months now, but I digress. Honestly, St. Marys County is not that far away from becoming top flight
competition in the state of Maryland because of the hard work of the student-athletes and coaches to get to that point. For example, when I first spoke with Leonardtown boys lacrosse coach Matt Chew some nine weeks ago at the beginning of Spring practice, he was clear that his goal for his program was to compete with the big boys of lacrosse up in Anne Arundel County, such as Urbana and their opponent in the 4A-3A East region finals, Severna Park. Even though the Raiders fell to the Falcons at home, ending their dream season, they could hold their heads proud as the Falcons, who had won three state titles in the previous four seasons, felt fortunate to escape Raider Stadium with a one-goal victory. That, friends and neighbors, is the name of the game. Competition is defined as the act of striving against others for the purpose of achieving dominance. While no one is suggesting that St. Marys County and Southern Maryland high school sports will ever become a completely dominant force, they certainly have proven themselves capable of giving other entities in the state a run for their money. Now if only they could play them more often when it counts. What are your feelings on Chris column? You can write to him at chrisstevens@ countytimes.net
Raiders Lacrosse
Continued from page B- into the second half and when Dallaire took a feed from Kenny Aicher and deposited the ball into the back of the net with 6:19 left in the third, the Raiders took their only lead of the game at 7-6. We wanted this game, Chew said of a game that wouldve marked the Raiders first trip to the states in the schools brief but successful lacrosse history. We really thought this game would have a different outcome. Instead, the Falcons ripped off three straight goals, two coming within a minute and 12 seconds of each other as Price and Jeff McGuire propelled Severna Park to a 9-7 lead. Aicher responded with two goals of his own, his last one coming with 2:12 gone by in the fourth to knot the score at 9. We knew it would be a hard-fought game, Aicher said quietly afterwards. We just made too many mental mistakes. After the Falcons opened up a two-goal lead, the stage was set for a frantic finish that saw the Raider defense force a turnover and Norris found

Dallaire on the left side for the final goal of the season. Hebb, as hes done all year, won the faceoff without contest and started down towards the net and found Aicher, whose shot went high, and after the Raiders could not hold possession, Severna Park ran out the final 25 seconds for the victory and their third straight trip to the State Tournament. Both teams played hard, but the better team came out on top, Norris dejectedly reasoned afterwards. Aside from the disappointment of coming up short, Chew feels that while this may have been his best team, he believes the Raiders are not
going away anytime soon. These guys [the seniors] are certainly going to be missed, but we do have some guys coming up, Chew says
of the junior varsity roster and several reserves. Come next March 1st, itll be time to play again. The seniors, led by the
core of Aicher, Dallaire and Norris, feel that despite missing out on states by a hair, they still have reason to hold their heads high.
We have four straight SMAC championships, Aicher said. Thats something to look back on and be proud of.

May through July is prime tick season in Southern Maryland, bringing with it the threat of Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses. To protect themselves from these diseases, residents are urged to take precautions and learn what to do if a tick bites. According to St. Marys County Health Department, 74 cases of Lyme disease were reported in the county between 2000 2006. Compared to other state populations, Marylanders are considered to be at medium risk for the disease. Those who spend time outdoors either for work or recreation are at greater risk of infection. Lyme disease is preventable. Learning the risks, avoiding ticks, and knowing what to do if a tick bites, are measures that prevent the likelihood of the long-term problems caused by Lyme disease. As a final line of defense, oral antibiotics that are administered within 7 days of the first symptoms will usually prevent chronic health problems caused by the bacterial infection. Learning the risks Deer tick nymphs, the size of poppy seeds, are responsible for spreading Lyme disease. Nymphs are most active in the late spring and summer. Tick bites lead to the telltale bulls eye rash in 85 90 percent of reported infections, but other symptoms are also serious indicators of a problem. Rash and/or flu like symptoms usually occur within one month of the tick exposure. Nervous symptom disruptions, arthritis-like pain, partial paralysis, and vision problems are also problems caused by the disease. If left untreated, neurological problems, chronic arthritis, and cardiac abnormalities may remain for life. The most important step to take is to call your doctor if you think

Patuxent Habitat for Humanity Basket Bingo

As most people know, housing in our area has become less and less affordable as the years have passed. Sadly this leaves many less fortunate families without proper housing or even a home at all. The Patuxent Habitat for Humanity is one of the organizations in our area that is setting out to ensure that the needy have a sanctuary and a place to call a home. They need our help to provide proper and affordable housing for those who desperately require it. In order to fund their mission they will be throwing a Basket Bingo on Thurs., May 22nd at 6 p.m. with the assistance of the Leonardtown High School Disaster Relief Club Students. Habitat and the LHS Students have reached out into the community to receive wonderful donations that will be given away as prizes at this fun-filled event. With the combined efforts of caring LHS Students and Habitat, we hope this night will truly be a success in raising money for a worthy cause. All proceeds will be used to fund affordable housing in our area, and help Patuxent Habitat for Humanity truly improve the lives of those in our community. We hope to see everyone come and play some good old-fashioned BINGO, and win a lot of great baskets. The Bingo will be held at The Southern Maryland Higher Education Center in Wildwood. Admission is $20 and food will be available. Reservations are more then welcome. For more information, or reservations please contact Sharon Schlatterer at bingohab-i-tat@excite.com

Is The Glass Half Full Or Half Empty?
Many people do not visit their local animal shelter when they consider adding a companion animal to their family. Their perception of a place that some of them have never been to is that animal shelters are sad places and they just cant bring themselves to go to one. How you view an animal shelter depends on how you answer the following question after you learn the facts: Is the glass half full or half empty? To be completely honest, not every animal that enters a shelter gets adopted. This is a fact that affects 3-4 million animals a year in this country. A large reason for this is because not enough people looking to add a pet to their family go to their shelter. Only with the publics help can shelters increase the number of animals that get adopted. Heres what we can tell you about the animals at the Tri-County Animal Shelter: every dog and cat gets a blanket in their cage (unless they decide that they like to eat them), good food and clean water. They also get toys and treats. Many of these items are donated from people who have had a wonderful experience adopting one of our animals. Other pets at the shelter, to include rabbits, reptiles and even the occasional pot-bellied pig, get fresh bedding, fresh fruits and vegetables if a part of their diet, and other items to keep them comfortable such as heat lamps for the cold-blooded critters and cardboard to chew on for the rabbits and rodents. The dog cages are designed so the dogs can go outside to sit in the fresh air if they like, and the floors are heated. The dogs get walked as often as possible. Chin scratches are given out to the animals that allow it throughout the day. The animals are inside, safe, warm and dry. They are not running at large, where they can get hit by a car or treated poorly by someone who doesnt want them hanging around. Theyre just waiting their turn at a chance for a new owner. You know the credit card commercial that talks about good things being priceless? Thats the feeling that shelter employees and volunteers get when our animals are adopted to a good home. In fact, we have many repeat adopters. An animal shelter is a place for second chances-it offers an animal a second chance at getting a forever home where they will be loved and cared for. And how many of us havent needed a second chance sometime in our life? Now that you know the animals at TriCounty Animal Shelter are well-cared for and waiting for their second chance, hopefully you see the glass as being half full. If so, please visit us. For more information, call us at 1800-903-1992 or check out our web page at www.charlescounty.org/es/animalcontrol.

Write a Thank-you Letter

By Theresa Morr
Finally. The end of the school year is looming ahead. Its also time to express your appreciation to all those special people who have helped you along the way. How? Youre going to write a thankyou letter, but heres the rub: No computers allowed that means no e-mail, and no store-bought thank-you cards either. Youre going to embark on an almost forgotten art. Yes! Youre going to write your thank-you letter the old fashioned way with a pen or pencil. Kind of scary, huh? Imagine this. First, close your eyes and make believe youve just received a letter or note in the mail from your closest friend. Youre surprised and pleased as you read it. The letter is short and simply says, Thanks for helping me with that math problem the other day. You feel ten feet tall. The unexpected letter has made your day. There is nothing like being appreciated and being told so. The nice thing about receiving a thank-you letter is that its real. You can touch it. You can read it over and over. You can even frame it if you wish. Or, you can tuck the letter away in a secret place and retrieve it when youre down in the dumps. Just knowing that someone thinks youre super is a great picker-upper. So, lets create your own surprise thank-you letter to someone special to brighten their day. Your letter doesnt have to be long, maybe a half page will do. Lets get started. Here are a few ideas: Thank your parents for providing you with good food and a loving, secure home; for teaching you Christian values and right from wrong; for being there when you needed them; and for disciplining you, too. Thank your mom or dad for driving you places; helping you with your homework; or consoling you when you felt down. Thank the parent who cooks your meals; washes your clothes; or fixes your bike. Thank your parents for putting up with your loud music and giving you wise advice. Thank your teacher for giving you special attention when you needed it; for being patient when you didnt understand something and for not letting you get lazy about your studies. And dont forget your school librarian, coach, guidance counselor, school nurse, or any other person who has done something special for you. Thank your pastor for inspiring sermons; your youth minister for giving so much time to your group; your song leader for helping you to enjoy music. Thank all those people who tirelessly give of themselves and may never get recognition other than your
Sudoku
thank-you letter. And dont forget the classmate who was always there to share your secrets, or just to hang out with you. Finishing touches. After youve finished writing your letters, you may want to sketch something in the top corner that symbolizes what your special person likes: maybe a flower for mom; a big bowl of popcorn for dad; an apple for your teacher; a prayer book for your pastor; or a big pizza for your classmate. You get the idea. Now tuck your letter into an envelope; address and stamp it; and drop it in the mail. All you have to do is sit back and wait for the pleasant reaction your letter will bring. Just think: Youve brightened someones day by giving a little of your time in a very personal way. And how much did it cost you? Maybe a halfdozen sheets of paper; some envelopes; and forty-two cent stamps if you used snail mail. Of course, hand delivery is cheap and a very cool option. So what are you waiting for? Start writing those thank-you letters today.
