As recently as their thunderous Feb. 23 comeback
win at Wesley College, the St. Marys College Mens
basketball team had a defning moment in a season
full of them that would determine the course of the
teams season-long quest for a conference title.
We were down 19 to them in the frst half, and

ney had a sure-fre reason in mind
as to why Mondays 4A East girls
basketball quarterfnal went the way
the fnal result did. Too many turn-
overs, the Raiders head coach said
following LHS 43-32 loss to Glen
Burnie High School that ended their
season. I think some of the girls
that normally knock down shots
didnt tonight, but we simply did not
take care of the ball.
The Raiders jumped out to a 10-
5 lead at the end of the frst quarter,
behind six points from junior center
Misty Stachowski. However, the
Gophers out-scored Leonardtown

On Sunday, March 9, 2008,
runners from twenty-one states,
the District of Columbia, and
South Africa will toe the starting
line at sunrise for the fourth annual
Lower Potomac River Marathon,
presented by Chesapeake Bay
Running Club in cooperation with
St. Marys County Recreation and
Parks. The offcial starter, Captain
Jack Russell of the Chesapeake Bay
Field Lab, will sound the conch at
7:15 a.m., and 200 runners will
exit the campus of the Harry Lun-
deberg School of Seamanship and
turn south to St. George Island for
the frst leg of the 26.2 mile race.
Top runners will compete for
modest cash prizes totaling $1200.
Undefeated champion John Pig-
gott, 42, of Williamsburg, VA is
again the favorite. Piggott set a
new course record last year, cov-
ering 26.2 miles over St. George
Island, Lighthouse Road, and Rte
249 in 2 hours, 33 minutes, and
5 seconds. Number two seed is
Christopher Hamley, 43, of Hyatts-
ville, MD, who clocked 2:46:02 for
top Master (over 40) honors at the
Northern Central Trail Marathon
last November.

After last Tuesdays diffcult loss
to Lackey in the regular season fnale,
Great Mills head coach Brian Weis-
ner was certain his girls had gotten
over the hurt. You cant dwell on
history, Weisner said following the
Hornets 66-45 3A Southern region
quarterfnal win over Potomac High
School Monday night at Great Mills
High School. You have to focus on
whats next.
After struggling to fnd the range
against the co-champion Chargers,
the Hornets (22-1 overall) were led
by senior guard Megan Mathenys
19 points, with juniors Corleda Nay-
lor and Shamara Adams adding 15
and 10 points respectively. Weisner
pointed to an improvement in effort
as a reason for the victory. [The ef-
fort] tonight was fantastic, we had
one play, where one of our girls dove
between a Potomac players legs to
save the ball, and we got it. Thats
the kind of effort you need to have to
win, he said.
It doesnt hurt to have unfailing
fan support, as the Hornets have had
all season. All four bleachers in the
GMHS gymnasium were pulled out
and ready for Monday nights game,
a rarity for girls basketball in the
state. Other schools dont get the
support from the fans that we get,
Weisner said.
Our fans are the greatest, we
[the coaches] appreciate it and the
players appreciate it. Its a huge ad-
vantage. Provided the Hornets win

I called time-out, Seahawks
Head Coach Chris Harney
recalls. The turning point
was trusting each other. We
told the guys that hey, were
going to chip away at this
thing and tie it at the half.
The Seahawks did just
that, eventually winning that
contest 73-70.
Along with Saturdays
82-72 win at Mary Washing-
ton College, the Seahawks
won their frst Capital Ath-
letic Conference champion-
ship since 1991.
They now will make the
schools frst NCAA Divi-
sion III national tournament
appearance when they travel
to Greensboro, NC to play
Guilford College Friday
evening.
The hawks, buoyed by
tournament wins at the Ath-
letics and Recreation Center
Arena over Wesley (89-82)
and Salisbury (95-89), took
down the second-seeded
Eagles with relative ease
despite just seven points
from leading scorer Tyson
Lesesne and playing with-
out the services of fresh-
man strong forward Mike
Bowden.
Bowden, who was lead-
ing the team in scoring with
13 points, suffered a third-
degree ankle sprain early
in the second half of the
Salisbury game, ending his
season.
No matter to the Hawks.
Junior center Alex Irmer
stepped in to score a team-
high 22 points, including a
clutch three-point play with
53.6 seconds left when SMC
needed it most.
With the Sea Gulls
shrinking a 23-point lead to
just three in the fnal minute,
Irmer rebounded a missed
three-pointer by Mike Smel-
kinson, spun baseline to
bank in a lay-up and draw
a foul on Salisburys Drew
Dickson.

Papagno made an auspicious
marathon debut at the 2006

and followed with a 3:01:42
at Richmond eight months
later. He faces stiff competi-

Christa Hayes of Leonard-
town, Suzanne Manuel of
Lusby, and Charlene Staats
of Lexington Park.
This year the Chesa-
peake Bay Running Club
is proud to host featured
speaker and awards pre-
senter Brian Boyle. The
amazing story of the young
triathletes recovery from a
near-fatal car accident be-
came well-known in the en-
durance sports community
when he was awarded the
Inspirational Athlete slot
at the Ford Ironman World
Championship in Kona,
Hawaii last October. Brian
Boyle will present a medal
to each runner crossing the
fnish line, and share his sto-
ry at the awards ceremony
immediately following the
race.
The Lower Potomac
River Marathon, small by
marathon standards, owes
much of its popularity to
the gracious hospitality and
sumptuous post-race lun-
cheon provided by the event
host, the Paul Hall Center
for Maritime Training &
Education. The race has
also received high marks for
its scenic riverfront course
and support from commu-
nity organizations including
the American Red Cross,
Southern Maryland Ama-
teur Radio Association, and
Pax Velo cycling club. The
fast and mostly fat course
is USATF-certifed, giv-
ing runners the opportunity
to qualify for the Boston
Marathon. Since it debuted
in 2005, the event has raised
over $23,000 for its ben-
efciaries, the Piney Point
Lighthouse Museum and
Chesapeake Bay Field Lab.
Spectators are encour-
aged to come out and cheer
on the runners. Choice
viewing locations include

At this years CAC Championships, the sophomore set
the school mark in the 200 fy with her time of 2:10.16 as
Hotchko took second in the event for second team All-CAC

She was a frst team All-CAC selection as a member of
the gold-medal winning 200 freestyle, 200 medley, and 400
medley relays, while earning second team All-CAC help-
ing the Seahawks fnish second in the 400 free relay. All
three frst-place relays posted school record-setting times as
Hotchko swam the third leg in the medley relays and the sec-

at Alex to shoot sometimes, Harney said Thursday night.
Hes such an unselfsh
player.
Lesesne, who scored 14
points in the Salisbury win
said that Irm is one of the
best big men in the confer-
ence. If it wasnt for Irm,
Calvin [Wise] and Bowden,
we dont win.
After defeating Salis-
bury for the fourth time this
season, the Hawks went into
Goolick Gymnasium as pre-
pared as theyve ever been
this season. Harney gave
credit to his assistant coach-
es and his players for putting
it all together. We knew ex-
actly what they were going
to do, and our guys followed
the game plan perfectly.
The fourth-seeded
hawks led by as many as 24
after T.J. Jordan scored on a
lay-up with 14 minutes left
in the game. The Eagles ral-
lied to within nine points in
the fnal minute, but reserve
guard Kyle Sullivan drove
the basket, drawing a foul as
he fipped the ball into the
basket. The subsequent free
throw opened the lead back
to 12 and the Hawks were
celebrating their frst trip
ever to the DIII tournament.
St. Marys will take on
Guilford College (24-4 this
season), who are led by the
reigning Division III Player
of the Year in 611 Center
Ben Strong. Strong averag-
es 25.4 points and close to 11
rebounds per game for the
Quakers, who won the Old
Dominion Athletic Confer-
ence crown by defeating
Virginia Wesleyan 91-80 in
overtime on Saturday.
With such a tall order
ahead of St. Marys, Chris
Harney doesnt think his
team will blink, much less
worry about Strong and the
Quakers.
Theyre good, but
theres not one team in our
conference that didnt pres-
ent a challenge, he said.
When in doubt, trust each
other.
Why not? Its gotten
them further than any other
Seahawk team has been.

range three-pointer by Jessica Taylor with 4:30 left in the second
quarter. We were able to spread things out and slow it down,
said Glen Burnie coach Dan Young. We couldve opened it up
more, but I felt our kids played well.
The Raiders were kept at arms length with timely shots
by the Gophers, aided by a clutch display by shooting guard
LaBree Williams. After Leonardtowns Emily Jones knocked
down a three-pointer to cut the Glen Burnie lead to a single
point (27-26) late in the third quarter, the Gophers patiently set
up their offense, and with the shot clock running down on their
next two possessions, Williams swished three point shots from
the top of the key and the right corner to open the lead back up
to seven points, and they were never seriously challenged after
that.
Those two shots LaBree made were huge, and a 10-point
lead is as good as being ahead 20 or 30 points for us, Young
said. Carney agreed, saying that they warmed up and shot
well, and that made it diffcult on us. LaBree Williams led
all scorers with 12 points, while Jessica Taylor and Tanyqua
Williams joined her in double fgures with 10 points each to
lead the Gophers into the region semifnals. Stachowski and
Jones each scored 10 for the Raiders, who fnished the season
13-10, a fact Carney considers a success despite the disappoint-
ing fnish.
I told the girls after the game that this was a step forward,
a step in the positive direction, Carney said, adding that a core
of key players would be returning to the team next season.

From: The Bleachers!
Subj: One Mans Opinion
Dear Sirs,
The national pastime has
been hijacked by performance
enhancing drugs for too long.
So long that Im having a hard
time remembering when I last
watched a game without res-
ervation over what my eyes
were feeding my brain. For
the love of God, can I get past
my own conscience and just
enjoy a ball game, a hot dog
drowning in mustard and a
ridiculously overpriced luke-
warm beer? Yet, it seems
like yesterday when my dad
would fan out four beautiful
tickets to an Orioles game
at old Memorial Stadium: a
memory waiting to be made
by those paper ticket stubs.
Would the Os win? Would
Eddie or Cal take one deep?
Regardless, wed eat the best
hot dogs ever and maybe even
have a shot at a foul ball. Bar-
ry and Roger (can I call you
by your frst names?youre
darn right I can and much
worse if my mood so inspires
me), you have, with much
help from your peers, robbed
us of that innocent feeling for
far too long. Wait, before you
launch into a roid rage, let
me explain. This is a thank
you letter.
Barry, thank you for be-
ing the catalyst for change.
In the late 90s, you watched
inferior players and fellow
science projects like Mark
McGwire and Sammy Sosa
chase hallowed baseball
homerun records. Appar-
ently you couldnt stand it and
traded your dignity for great-
ness attained via a physicians
needle or a mysterious cream.
Oh I know, you never know-
ingly used steroids. You just
didnt ask any questions when
your trusted trainers rubbed
substances all over your body.
Come on. It was you that
made us face our conscience
for the frst time. Was it the
uncomfortable growth of your
head, loss of hair or rumored
foot-growth at age 40? No,
it was what you were threat-
ening: Hank Aarons 755
homeruns, the most romantic
and famous record in all of
professional sports. We could
all accept steroid use until the
consequence was outftting
baseball history with an awk-
ward asterisk.
Baseballs house has
been in disrepair and it need-
ed someone to tear it down
to its foundation, to the pro-
verbial rock bottom, before
the rebuild (the healing) could
begin. Roger, thank you for
taking us there, into the deep-
est subterranean sewer and
making us smell the stink of
all stink. You were, hands
down, the best pitcher of your
generation. Instead of cel-
ebrating the twilight of your
decorated career, weve spent
the last few weeks watching
you testify before Congress
in a pathetic he said, he
said, tick for tat testimony
with your smarmy former
trainer. He said you used
Human Growth Hormone
(HGH); you are adamant that
A View From The Bleachers
Is It Back To Being About the
Peanuts And Cracker Jacks?
you didnt. As much as we
want to believe you, he ap-
pears more credible. Perhaps
the most disturbing part of the
Congressional proceedings
was your testimony that your
wife used HGH. Recently,
I read a story about a party
where your wife and the wife
of notorious steroid user Jose
Canseco openly compared
their breast augmentations.
That was a party you testifed
you didnt attend, but alleged-
ly photos are surfacing to the
contrary. And now the FBI
is investigating whether you
committed perjury. Welcome
to the theater of the absurd!
As we take account of the
steroid era, we see a landscape
littered with shallow players
that sold their souls for fortune
and fame, and a union and
league offcials who turned a
blind eye and a deaf ear to the
problem. And Ill admit that
landscape also includes nave
fans that served as unknow-
ing enablers. Sports consum-
ers love the long ball. And
Roger, we equally love that
95 M.P.H fastball delivered
from your 40+-year-old arm.
So forgive us if we were tem-
porarily intoxicated by the
prodigious homerun numbers
and genetic-defying statistics
of 40-something future Hall
of Famers. Were fans and we
wanted to believe. At some
level, I can forgive most of
the players. Many of those
named in the recent MLB-
requested report by Senator
George Mitchell were fringe
players desperate to maintain
a major league career. But
Barry and Roger, you were
rich, famous and had reserva-
tions at Cooperstown with-
out help from modern medi-
cine. So I want to thank you
for being so narcissistic, so
endlessly self-absorbed and
overwhelmed with your own
immortality that you were
incapable of controlling your
egos. Thank you for going
farther beyond reality than
even fan-hood. Thank you for
forcing a sport to self-exam-
ine, fans to question and for
creating an infection signif-
cant enough to force change.
More importantly, thank you
for beginning and, hopefully,
completing the healing. You
underestimated the love and
respect the general public
(including our Government)
has for our national pastime
and for the historical fgures
that honestly set the records
you chased so cavalierly. You
were destined for the Baseball
Hall of Fame with nothing
stronger than good old-fash-
ioned hard work. Instead you
chose to cheat the game and,
in doing so, provided the neat
bookends weve been search-
ing for to put a bow on the
steroid era. Do you remem-
ber when Rocky asked Mick
to cut his grotesquely swollen
eye so he could see? Its kind
of like that gentlemen. Barry,
youre the razor and Roger,
youre the scab that formed
days later. Im sorry for being
mean. Heres a positive spin:
maybe you just cemented a
different legacy. Instead of
future generations admiring
your numbers, youll be an-
other example of what not to
do, right there with the Black
Sox of 1919 and Pete Rose.
Maybe, if youre lucky, your
legacy will be preventing
some young athlete from re-
peating your sin.
I want baseball back and
it shouldnt include either of
you. So please, just go away.
Enjoy walking around for the
rest of your lives with a scarlet
letter on your chests: instead
of an A for adultery, an S
for steroids. This summer I
pledge to attend a Nationals,
Bowie Baysox or Southern
Maryland Blue Crabs game.
And when I do, thanks to
you two, it will be fnally be
about our great game again.
Its been about peanuts and
cracker jacks for over 100
years; hopefully its back to
being that simple again.
Sincerely,
Joe Fan

Boy Scouts of America
Troop 561 proudly announc-
es that Neal Zabiegalski has
achieved the rank of Eagle
Scout on August 2, 2007. Neal
is a 17 year old senior at Leon-
ardtown High School and is
in the engineering technology
program at Dr. James A. For-
rest Career and Technology
Center.
Neal attends Leonard-
town Baptist Church along
with his parents Dr. and Mrs.
Neal Zabiegalski and his two
younger sisters Natalie and
Nancy.
In addition to the man-
datory merits to achieve the
rank of Eagle Scout, Zabie-
galski also did a host of elec-
tive merits and outdoor scout
adventures including scuba,
snowboarding and offshore
sailing.
His leadership positions
within the troop included In-
structor, Assist Patrol Leader,
Patrol Leader and Chaplain.
He also organized and hosted
a hands-on skills weekend
and campout for the younger
scouts.
Neals greatest achieve-
ment in Scouts was his Eagle
project. Neal, and his troop,
constructed a storage build-
ing for Leonardtown Baptist
Church. This required a com-
prehensive drawing and design
plan required for building on
commercial property. In years
past this was a fairly simple
task however in modern times
achieving the building permit
requires many planning and
meeting stages prior to obtain-
ing a building permit. Despite
many hurdles along the way
Zabiegalski showed perse-
verance in following through
on this most needed storage
building. Zabiegalski said,
I enjoy fabricating and con-
structing things. Its gratify-
ing to see the fnished product
being used by my church.
Neals court of honor will
be held at the Elks Lodge in
Lexington Park off of Chan-
cellors Run Road on March 9,
2008, at 2:00 pm in the main
hall.

ethic that is immeasurable.
SDFC Russell has an abun-
dance of collateral duties with
the SMCSO. He is a member
of the Emergency Services
Team, a Firearms Instructor,
and an Active Shooter In-
structor and is responsible for
teaching immediate deploy-
ment/rapid intervention tech-
niques. With his patrol time
being limited because of nu-
merous special assignments,
other offcers look to him for
guidance in diffcult investi-
gations. A perfect example
of this occurred on Decem-
ber 29, 2007 when an armed
subject had taken numerous
shots at several victims. As
the investigation progressed
a suspect was identifed along
with a location. The investi-
gating offcer then immedi-
ately requested SDFC Rus-
sell assists them with the ap-
prehension. This request was
made knowing there would be
a delay in SDFC Russells re-
sponding due to an unrelated
investigation.
Sixty-seven signs have
been placed throughout St.
Marys County to help resi-
dents easily identify evacu-
ation routes. These signs
are for all hazard events and
route all secondary road traf-
fc north out of the County at
either Route 5 in Mechanics-
ville or at Route 234 towards
Route 301.
The signs are one addi-
tional tool to aid citizens if
an evacuation order is issued
due to severe storms or other
emergency event requiring
citizen evacuation.
High visibility Emer-
gency Shelter signs have also
been placed at all three Coun-
ty High Schools (Chopticon,
Great Mills, and Leonard-
town) designating the Coun-
tys primary shelters. Leon-
ardtown High School has two
signs near Route 5, and will
be the frst shelter to open in
an emergency event.
These signs were pur-
chased with Homeland Se-
curity Grant Program Funds
and installed by staff at the
St. Marys County Depart-
ment of Public Works and
Transportation. Overall state
planning was done by the
Maryland State Highway Ad-
ministration (SHA); Daniels

Inc.; and the Southern Mary-
land Regional Emergency
Managers. These entities
worked with the Department
of Public Safety and Public
Works and Transportation to
develop a statewide Evacu-
ation Traffc Management
Plan. The Plan addresses
sign placement, traffc rout-
ing based on specifc events,
detailed mapping, person-

develop in the frst month of
pregnancy, most often before a
woman knows she is pregnant.
The Centers for Disease Con-
trol and Prevention, reports
that about half of all pregnan-
cies in the United States are
unplanned, however, leaving
little opportunity to increase
folic acid in a womans body
before conception.
By taking one multi-vi-
tamin with folic acid daily,
women of childbearing age
can help prevent birth de-
fects of the brain and spinal
cord, noted Libby Wright,
RN, MSN, community health
nurse program manager at the
health department. Folic acid
helps to prevent these birth
defects if taken before
conception and during early
pregnancy.
According to Wright, the
grant, one of 12 awarded in
the state, has the potential to
signifcantly impact the health
of mothers and babies in St.
Marys County. One Multi-
Vitamin = One Healthy Baby
will educate women about the
positive benefts of taking folic
acid during their child bearing
years, not only for the health
of their babies, but also for the
protection folic acid provides
in preventing heart disease,
cervical and colon cancer, and
possibly, breast cancer.
The Health Department
will be distributing gift bags
and stepping up education
about the importance of tak-
ing folic acid at its Family
Planning and Reproductive
Health, Teen and Detention
Center Clinics this spring and
summer. The gifts will in-
clude multi-vitamins, as well
as literature on getting ready
for pregnancy, birth and par-
enting. For more information

Trespassing,
harassment and
telephone misuse
charges
On February 29, 2008
Dfc. Chris Byrd and Dfc.
Stephen Simonds respond-
ed to Eddie Nelson Road in
Leonardtown, for a report of
a disturbance. Investigation
revealed, James Edward But-
ler Jr., 67, Leonardtown, was
told numerous times to leave
the victims property. Butler
and the victim are relatives
and neighbors. Once Butler
left the victims property and
returned home, he allegedly
began making harassing tele-
phone calls to the victims res-
idence. The victim told Butler
to stop calling her residence.
The victim reported to the
deputies Butler was allegedly
intoxicated and she did not
want him to trespass on her
property or call her residence.
While the deputies were at
the victims residence Butler
again called the victim. The
victim, in the presence of the
deputies, told Butler not to call
or trespass on her property.
The deputies observed But-
lers telephone number on the
victims caller identifcation.
The deputies personally con-
tacted Butler and told him if
he contacted the victim again
he would be arrested. A short
time later, while the deputies
were still in the vicinity of the
victims residence, Butler al-
legedly contacted the victim
by telephone. Butler was ar-
rested and charged with tres-
passing, harassment and tele-
phone misuse.
Second-degree

ly towards Fowler and Ruest.
Although there was signif-
cant room on either side of the
deputies for Cook to walk by,

Critter Corner
When people ride in vehicles, they buckle
up for safety. The Tri-County Animal Shel-
ter wants you to consider the same precau-
tions to keep your pets safe when they ride in
a vehicle.
Pets should never be allowed to ride loose
in a vehicle. Smaller pets could get under the
gas or brake pedals and cause you to have an
accident. A pet riding in the lap of the driver
can interfere with steering or being able to see
the road. If the vehicle was to be involved in
an accident, an unsecured pet could be injured
or thrown from the vehicle, or become fright-
ened, get loose and run into traffc.
Human seat belts can be dangerous for
dogs, since they are designed to secure hu-
mans. Special seat belts are available at pet
supply stores and online to accommodate a
dogs size and shape. Better yet, place any pet
in a carrier or crate that is secured inside the
vehicle.
While most dogs love to stick their head
out the window to have the wind in their hair,
owners should keep them completely inside the
vehicle to prevent injury. Dirt and debris can
enter their eyes, nose, ears or throat, causing
serious injury. Signs of eye injuries include
watering, redness and swelling, and the pet
rubbing their eyes with their paws or against
the foor or furniture.
No animal should be allowed to ride in the
back of a pickup truck unless they are secured
in a travel crate or pet carrier. If your truck
were to hit a bump, or if you were to slam on
the brakes or swerve to avoid an obstacle, your
pet could be thrown from the truck bed and
onto the road. If this doesnt injure or kill your
pet, being struck by another vehicle could.
Other motorists swerving to avoid hitting your
pet may cause an accident. Restraining your
pet in the bed of a truck with a leash or har-
ness can result in your pet being strangled or
dragged if they are thrown from the truck.
Keep your pet in the cab of the truck with you,
secured in either a crate or carrier.
Always make sure your pet is displaying
current identifcation, so if the worst should
happen and your pet gets loose while you are
traveling, you will increase his chances of be-
ing returned home. Remember, vehicle safety
is for everyone in your family, even the four-
legged members.

Just like Mom used to say, Breakfast is the
most important meal of the day. Breakfast is
especially important as the temperatures start
to drop, providing rich fuel to combat even the
coldest of winter days.
For those looking to enjoy a hearty break-
fast before braving the winter weather, con-
sider the following recipe for Crispy Potato
Pancakes with Vegetables, courtesy of Diane
Rossen Worthingtons The New California
Cook (Chronicle Books).
Crispy Potato Pancakes
with Vegetables
Serves 6 to 8
1 medium onion, quartered
2 large eggs
1 medium baking (russet) potato, peeled
and cut into 1-inch cubes
1 small zucchini, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 small carrot, cut into 1-inch cubes
12 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons all-purpose four
Pinch freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil for frying
1 cup apple sauce
1. Pure the onion and eggs together in a
food processor ftted with the metal blade until
the mixture is smooth and fuffy. Add the po-
tatoes, zucchini and carrot, and pulse until the
mixture is fnely chopped but retains some tex-
ture. Add the salt, pepper and four and quickly
process to combine. Do not over-process. Pour
the batter into the medium mixing bowl.
2. Let the batter sit for 15 minutes, covered
with plastic wrap to prevent any discoloration.
3. Heat 34 inch of oil in a large, nonstick
skillet over medium-high heat. Pour a table-
spoon of batter into the skillet to test the oil. If
it is hot enough, the pancake will begin to siz-
zle and brown. Spoon tablespoons of the batter
into the skillet, making sure that theres a little
room between each pancake. Flatten them with
the back of a spoon and use a spatula to round
out the sides, if necessary. Fry the pancakes
until they are golden brown on one side, then
turn them and brown the other side.
4. Transfer the pancakes to a baking sheet
lined with two layers of paper towels. Allow
the excess oil to drain. If serving immediately,
place the pancakes on a platter and serve with
the apple sauce.
