Leonardtown’s girls’ track and field team continued its successful season in the 4A East Regional meet at Chesapeake High last weekend.

The Lady Raiders had strong performances in the middle and long distance events, as well as in several relays, and they managed to qualify 10 individuals to compete in the Maryland State Champion-ship, which will be held this Fri-day and Saturday at Morgan State University.

“Overall, we thought the people that should have qualified did,” said Raiders Head Coach Shawn Snyder. “So we were very pleased that those people made it to states.”

Sophomore Alex Evitts will compete in several events, as she placed third in both the 200m dash and the 400m dash at regionals. She also helped the Lady Raiders to a third place finish in the 4x200m re-

lay and a second place finish in the 4x400m relay.

In the mile run, Katlyn Dillow placed fourth, just five seconds be-hind first place finisher Kara Kelty, a freshman at Meade. Dillow teamed up with Davi Clark, Lara Lewellyn, and Lindsay McCleaf in the 4x800m relay, which finished second overall. Olivia Webster ran a strong race in the two mile, finishing third with a time of 11:57.77.

Leonardtown picked up some crucial points in sprint and field events as well. Chelsea Hatton placed third in the 100 hurdles with a time of 16.7s, good for six points, while Catherine Turner finished fourth in the 300 hurdles in a time of 48.6s. Sophomore Jessica Cooke contribut-ed four points with her fourth place finish in the high jump and helped the 4x200 relay earn six points.

For the boys’ team, highlights included a fifth place run by Michael Hageman in the two mile (10:30)

Lady Raiders Send Ten to State Track Meet

St. Mary’s City, MD – The Capital Athletic Conference office announced the 2007 Capital Ath-letic Conference Women’s Lacrosse All-Conference Teams yesterday evening.

Sophomore midfielder Lau-ren Carrier (Crownsville, MD) was selected to the first team, while se-nior goalkeeper Melissa Puzak (Ar-nold, MD/Broadneck) and defend-ers Elizabeth Northfield (Arnold, MD/Broadneck) and Karisa Carroll (Long Island/Ward Melville) all earned a spot on the second team.

Carrier is making her first ap-pearance on the All-CAC First Team after garnering a spot on the second team a year ago. She dominated the attacking end for the Seahawks as Carrier notched team-highs of 61 goals and 74 points. She also led the

At last weekend’s 3A South Re-gion Championships, it was clear that the La Plata boys track and field team would be the team to beat. In the end, the Warriors proved that they were the team that couldn’t be beat, as they defeated second place Huntingtown by 65 points, placing in the top three in 11 of 17 events.

On the girls’ side, Largo was the team to beat, and like La Plata’s boys team, they proved that they could not be beaten, as they defeated second place Lackey by 99 points.

Though this year’s 3A South Region meet was dominated by two teams, the rest of the field was very close and provided some strong per-formances across the board.

Chopticon’s boys’ team had an impressive weekend, taking fifth place with 43 points, while the girls placed eighth with 25.5 points.

Senior James Countiss was the Braves’ top finisher, as he placed first in the triple jump with a mark of 13.81m. Also faring well for Chop-ticon was Patrick Moran, who took

Before this year, St. Mary’s Ryken High School had never sent a sports team to a Washington Catholic Ath-letic Conference (WCAC) Championship. On Friday, May 11, however, the Knights had an opportunity to send two teams to the conference championship – the boys’ lacrosse team and the softball team. For Mike Kri-ner, who not only coaches the softball team, but has a son, Nick, that plays on the varsity lacrosse team, it was a day to remember.

For the last three years, the Knights lacrosse team has lost in the semifinals of the WCAC tournament. That Friday afternoon, though, the Knights made history by beating Good Counsel 13-7 to advance to the champion-ship game against DeMatha.

Meanwhile, the Lady Knights softball team was playing in their semifinal game against Paul VI and trying to hold on to their 1-0 lead. Ryken’s only run of the game came on a bottom of the first inning lead off home run by first baseman Erin Leddy. Leddy’s solo shot turned out to be enough, as Ryken held off the Panthers to clinch their first ever appearance in the conference championship.

“It was a pretty exciting day for me,” said Mike Kri-ner. “I actually missed both [lacrosse] playoff games, but I got to see the finals. So that was pretty cool.”

In the finals, Nick Kriner and the rest of the Ryken Knights defeated DeMatha, 13-12, ending the Stags’ eight-year run as conference champions.

Though the Lady Knights ended up losing 5-0 in the finals to Bishop O’Connell, the 2007 season was the best

of any softball team in school history. From the very first game of the season, the Lady

Knights knew they had a special team. Facing Bishop Ireton (a team Ryken had never beaten before in softball) in the season opener, the Knights started off the year on a good note, defeating the Cardinals, 4-1.

Heading into the game, the players had made an agreement with Kriner that if they could beat both Ireton and O’Connell (another team the Knights had never beat-en,) they would have permission to shave their coach’s head. Ryken never ended up beating O’Connell, but they did beat Ireton, so the team compromised.

“They gave me a Mohawk because they said we only beat one of the two teams,” Kriner said. “I kept it for a few days.”

With a win over Ireton under their belt, the Knights kept rolling through the season. Led by captains Aman-da Hanson, Kim Delapaz and Leddy, Ryken went 21-7 overall and 13-3 in the conference, quite an improvement over their record last year (16-10, 9-7 WCAC).

Kriner, a second year head coach at St. Mary’s, said the team was successful because they became comfort-able with each other and the style of play he expected from them. “We had a feeling out process just of the way I like to play versus the way they were playing before,” Kriner said. “It was a little different. They knew what to expect from me and I knew what to expect from them.”

The team also bonded very well this season, accord-ing to Kriner. During spring break, the squad traveled to Myrtle Beach, S.C., to compete against 16 teams from all over the East Coast and Midwest in the Grand Strand Softball Classic.

James Young of Chopticon, leaves the competition behind in a tri meet earlier in the season. He placed fourth in the 3A South Region Championship with a time of 10:39 in the 3200m run.

In the KnowlI Went to The Preakness and I Didn’t See a Horse

By Andrew KnowltonStaff Writer

I went to the 132nd running of the Preakness Stakes on Saturday. I didn’t know who won the race until Sunday.

If you aren’t familiar with Preakness, I’ll look up the definition online for you. Here’s what Urbandictionary.com says about it:

“A Baltimore tradition known for legal public drunk-enness. It doesn’t matter if you’re 12 or 52 – you will be drunk.”

I couldn’t have described the event any better. Well, maybe I’ll give it a shot. But first, let’s look at a definition of what the Preakness is sup-posed to be – in the words of the always trustworthy site, wikipedia.org:

“The Preakness Stakes is a Grade I stakes race 1 3/16 mile (1.91 km) thoroughbred horse race for three-year-old horses, held on the third Sat-urday in May of each year at Pimlico Race Course in Balti-more, Maryland.”

Huh. That’s interesting. I don’t remember seeing any horses. That’s because going to the Preakness isn’t about the horses. To quote another

line from Urbandictionary: “You may not see a horse all day, yet this IS a horse race.”

So what do you see at the Preakness?

You see 100,000 wild twenty-somethings bong-ing beers, playing drinking games, sliding down beer-drenched slip-and-slides. You’ll see a few brave and brilliant men attempt to sprint across the tops of long rows of port-a-johns while the crowds try to knock them down by throwing empty and/or full beer cans at them. The port-a-john’s are a popular hangout area at the Preakness. “You will probably use a port-a-potty more in this one day than all other days of your life combined,” according to Urbandictionary.

Some people chose not to use the port-a-potty’s. Instead, they go on the fence that keeps the 100,000 fans separated from the track, while cops watch but can’t do anything to stop them.

You’ll also see beads, and the things certain girls will do to acquire those beads. You’ll see people passed out on the grass and people wrestling in baby pools full of beer and ice. You’ll see all these things, but you might not even see a

horse all day.All in all, the Preakness is

more like a spring break trip to Cancun without the beach.

It’s like a rock concert moshpit without the music. It’s like going to the most insane Mardi Gras celebration with-out having to travel to Bour-bon Street. And all you have to pay is a measly $55 for it (of course, that doesn’t include all the overpriced food that you’re bound to be purchasing halfway through the day.)

People have it all figured out though. The key is to get to Preakness as early as you can. That means eight or nine

in the morning, so you can maximize your time there and be sure you’re complete-ly inebriated by noon. “You will make grand plans to go out that night and continue drinking, but will pass out anywhere between three and seven p.m. until noon the next day,” says the Urbandiction-ary. That’s perfect because the main event is at 6:00 p.m. and you won’t be able to see anything anyway.

Even if you placed a bet and won, you’ll be so out of it when you leave that you’ll for-get to collect your money on your way out the front gate.

I didn’t go this route. I’m not much of a gambling man. After finding a $10 bill on the ground of the infield (prob-ably the highlight of my day,) I decided I’d already had as much luck as I was going to have.

When the main event ac-tually did take place, I didn’t even realize it. There was no big announcement. It just hap-pened, and then it was over. It wasn’t until Sunday morning when I picked up the paper that I found out who won.

The first thing I said was: “Curlin who?”
