Kara Reber takes over as head coach of the St. Marys College womens lacrosse team.

St. Marys City, Md. The St. Marys College of Maryland Department of Athletics & Recreation is complete once again as Scott Devine, the director of athletics & recreation, announced today that Kara Reber has been selected as the new head coach for the Seahawk womens lacrosse program effective Aug. 25. Reber, a native of Pittsford, N.Y., comes to St. Marys after five successful years at Lycoming College in Williamsport, Pa., where she guided the Lady Warriors to a 47-34 mark. It is with great pleasure that I welcome Kara

Reber as our next womens lacrosse coach, Devine said. Kara has done an outstanding job building a strong lacrosse program during her time at Lycoming. Back-to-back 14-win seasons along with earning coach-of-the-year honors certainly speak to the quality of the job she has done. It was clear to us during the interview process that Coach Reber knows how to run all aspects of a top notch collegiate lacrosse program, and that is the type of person we want in place to oversee our NCAA championship caliber program here at St. Marys. We all look forward to

welcoming Kara and her family to the Seahawk athletic department. Reber is truly excited about the opportunity to take over the reins of a nationally ranked squad that made its seventh appearance in the NCAA Division III Womens Lacrosse Tournament in 2008. I am looking forward to working at St. Marys as it is a highly respected academic and athletic institution, Reber said. St. Marys is a See Reber page B-2

Ryken Grads Participate In Cancer Benefit

Lacrosse Players Band Together For Stricken Opponent
By Chris Stevens Staff Writer A beautiful anecdote in sports and competition is that once the game is over, the teams who just tried to beat each other in a timed event still manage to make and become friends. Such was the case for St. Marys Ryken graduates Zack Angel and Brett and Bryant Schmidt, who participated in the First Annual Millerstrong Lacrosse Classic in Crofton, Md. Sunday to honor Matt Miller, a former goalkeeper at Washington Catholic Athletic Conference rival DeMatha Catholic High School. Miller has been battling testicular cancer for close to a year now, and Angel, along with the Schmidt brothers, felt compelled to come to Millers aid. Ive known Matt since my freshman year, the Georgetown University-bound Angel said of the goalie of one of Rykens best-known foes. No one wants to see anyone go through that, so it was a great time for a good cause, because Matts a great kid. It was great to go up there and play lacrosse for a great cause and to have fun, added Bryant Schmidt, who along with twin brother Brett will play college lacrosse at Mount St. Marys University next spring. Playing in the game, which was held at Crofton Park on Defense Highway, was something the Ryken players admitted to doing with much enthusiasm, but with no pressure at all. Lacrosse is something we play to have fun, so it was a great thing to do, Schmidt said. I had a blast to be honest, Angel said I had a great time, and there were no nerves or anything to do your best, just to play. Yesterday was an awesome experience. Angel opened up the scoring with a goal leading to an See Lacrosse for Cancer Benefit page B-3

Raleys Edges Just Us

Five-Run Third Inning, Defense Key Victory
By Chris Stevens Staff Writer GREAT MILLS With neither team hitting well in last Wednesdays pivotal Womens Softball League game at the Brass Rail, it took just one big inning for Raleys Furniture to decide the outcome. Scoring five runs on six hits in the bottom of the third, Raleys did just enough to come away with a 5-2 win, leapfrogging Just Us for second place and staying hot on the heels of Bud Light, the first place team in Division I. They say good defense beats good hitting, Raleys manager Juanita Redman said of a defensive unit that kept the normally high-scoring Just Us team to only two runs with solid defense, including two double plays late. We dont build our season on offense, were a defensive team. Before their defense could close the game out for them, Raleys picked up all of their runs See Womens Softball page B-3

Three-Run Seventh Inning Rally is the Difference
By Chris Stevens Staff Writer GREAT MILLS In a St. Marys County Slow-pitch softball game that saw one team jump ahead by as many as 10 runs and the other team scoring 15 runs in two turns at bat, only to lose the lead in the last inning, Bud Light saved their very best for the end last Thursday night at the Brass Rail. First baseman Shawn Doerrers basesloaded single in the bottom of the seventh capped a 20-19 comeback win over the Bombers, after trailing 12-2 through 3 innings. See Mens Softball page B-2

Continued from page B- Thats a heck of a deficit to come back from, said Bud Light manager Allie Babcock of the 187 scoring edge through the final three-plus innings that his team put together. Babcock also echoed his faith in his offense after a loss to Belden Construction three weeks ago, saying, If we do hit, we can run with the best of them. In the beginning, it looked like the Bombers were going to run Bud Light off the field. Aided by a couple of outfield errors by Bud, the Bombers took a 12-2 lead after scoring six runs in the third inning and three more in the top half of the fourth. After a listless loss last Tuesday, Bombers manager/leftfielder Bernie Goad was pleased with the effort his team put forward. Coming off of what we did Tuesday, I would have to say it was a good game, Goad, who drove in three runs on three hits, said. We hit, we played defense, we actually came out and played today. We just came up short. Bud Lights offensive surge was just beginning. They cut the Bombers lead from ten runs to a scant two in the bottom half of the fourth inning, led by Ronnie Babcocks three-run double and Fred Moritz twin two-run homers in the frame. After holding the Bombers scoreless in the top half of the fifth, Bud came through with seven more runs in their part of the

ly the best game weve played all year. Even with their lead gone and finding themselves in a five-run hole, the Bombers showed they were up for the challenge. A threerun sixth inning was highlighted by a Mike Johnson home run, making the score 17-15. After a near-perfect defensive half, the Bombers made one final charge for the win in the top of the seventh. After Donnie Gray grounded into a double play, pitcher Jeff Dillon walked and Johnson came through once again. He slapped a two-run double into left field, bringing home Alan Queary (who had walked to lead off the inning) and Dillon, the tying runs. Pinch hitter Nate Rivers stepped in for Goad and laced a solid single into center, scoring Johnson with the go-ahead run. Rivers then scored on a Tim Saxon double and it seemed the comeback was complete. That is, until Bud Light pushed two in and loaded the bases with one out. Doerrer stepped up to bat, reached out and slapped a single through the middle of the infield, driving home the winning run and giving Bud Light a much-needed late-season boost. With the way our seasons gone, Allie Babcock said, it puts us on a very important upswing at the right time.

A View From The Bleachers

Reflecting On The Journey At The Final Destination
By Ronald N. Guy Jr. Contributing Writer Ah, theres nothing like a road trip with a couple of old friends: good tunes, the open road, relentless ribbing, reflections on good times and an unspoken certainty of new memories about to be created (Ill touch more on this later). This weeks view headed west to the bleachers of Fawcett Stadium in Canton, Ohio to celebrate the induction of Washington Redskins greats Darrell Green and Art Monk into the Pro Football Hall of Fame (HOF). Sharing the honors were fellow 2008 HOF inductees Andre Tippett, Fred Dean, Gary Zimmerman and former Kansas City Chiefs defensive back and Redskins coach Emmitt Thomas. The reported attendance was just shy of 17,000 and from my perch in the stadium about 16,000 were Redskins fans. To be sure, there were a few large contingents from The County in attendance, a couple of which we ran in to before and after the enshrinement ceremony. To a man, the 2008 HOF inductees possessed uncommon talent and unquestioned character. They were throwbacks to a previous generation of team-first individuals who played the game with love, passion, and a deep respect for fans and their opponents. They were class acts that represented themselves, their team and their profession well. Their resumes lack selfish acts, brushes with the law and shameless self-promotion so common with todays players. These six men are now HOF players, but after listening intently to their speeches, their stories, I was struck by their HOF credentials as people. None of the speeches contained significant content about football. Instead, each man reflected on their personal journey, thanked friends and family for support and various coaches for opportunities. Despite their talent and success, these men recognized they stood on foundations laid by others. These were men grounded in family. They spoke of the support of their parents and grandparents, the love of their spouses and their commitment to their children. In fact, it was in reflecting on these relationships, not when recalling their football careers, that they were moved to tears. Three of the more poignant and emotional moments of the ceremony were when the sons of Thomas, Green and Monk presented their fathers for induction. The relationship between these three fathers and their sons was both inspiring and challenging (at least for this son and dad). They all shared stories of personal struggles and loss. Thomas lost his mother at age 8. Green lost two childhood friends early in life and both of his parents are deceased. And Monk shared that he lost his biggest fan, his father, just a couple of years ago. Through their stories these great, powerful and graceful men of the gridiron seemed very real. It added a human element to their extraordinary lives that was unexpected yet welcomed and very moving. I was also struck by the fragility of their football careers. Each had particular moments when his HOF career, if not his football career, hung in the

balance. Fred Dean shared that he was an undersized kid with a penchant for trouble and for scrapping and fighting schoolyard bullies. A teacher suggested he channel his aggressions through the game of football. Darrell Green played football on and off in high school, wasnt offered a college scholarship but got into tiny Texas A&I on a grant after some assistance from a coach. He got homesick, quit for a while but returned a year later. Gary Zimmerman went to the University of Oregon intent on playing middle linebacker. He thought it a bit odd when he was issued #75 (a common number for lineman) before his first practice. He was informed he was better equipped to play offensive line. Instead of pouting and complaining, he proved his coachs instincts correct by becoming one of the best offensive linemen in NFL history. Like the thousands in attendance at the enshrinement, I thought I was going to Canton simply to celebrate the accomplishments of a select group of football players. Boy do I feel nave and a bit foolish now. After all, I started this column with a belief that sports often reflect on our daily lives. So you think I might have had a clue what a HOF induction had to offer. Not even close. What I, and the others in attendance, stumbled on was something

much more significant than a football party. Collectively these gentlemen painted a portrait of success in the game of life. These were men that overcame their share of adversity, got a little lucky and took advantage of the opportunities life, and specifically football, presented to them. They are proof that adversity is no match for perseverance and the human spirit. They are reminders that opportunity often arrives in disguise, is recognized only with an open mind and is seized by tireless effort and dedication. Even at the apex of their professional lives, they all remain grounded in and devoted to their families. Not one of them forgot the origin of their journeys and the people that steered them with good advice at each fork in the road. Nor should we let the wisdom of our elders go unheard. Rather we must heed their advice, harness our own experiences and offer our knowledge on the next generation. Lastly, the 2008 HOF class reminds us to believe in our abilities and stay focused on our dreams. Emmitt Thomas summed it up best when he said, through faith, hard work and determination(we) have a chance to rise from the most modest of circumstances and become a Hall of Famerjust like this old, un-drafted free agent country boy from Angleton, Texas. That could have just as easily ended with,

from St. Marys County, MD. You just never know. Send your comments to rguyjoon@yahoo.com Extra Innings: As my friends and I have aged, dispersed, multiplied and acquired greater responsibilities, it has become challenging to get together and indulge in the shared interests and hobbies that bound us as children or young adults. We often find ourselves swimming constantly upstream, barely keeping pace with the frenetic pace of life. This past weekend was a reminder of the importance of making time for good friends and family. To be sure, Redskins fans traveled to Canton, Ohio this past weekend to celebrate the accomplishments of Art Monk and Darrell Green; immortals in Redskins lure. But I observed friends and family using this opportunity to celebrate two men, a game and a franchise that has provided countless binding experiences over their lives. Thousands of football fans took the time to travel to the HOF to decompress, rewind, party and re-connect. I recommend the same. So take time to do what you enjoy doing. Call up a good friend and plan a trip or some quality time away. What are you waiting for? Do it.

the seventh kept them from getting any closer. Just Us manager Joe Queen knew the third-inning surge was key for Raleys considering the way his team has struggled hitting recently. They had a lot of hits in that inning, nothing you can do when a team hits the ball like that, he said. Just Us (now 13-3 on the season), one of the top run-scoring teams in the league, managed just two runs on nine hits, a troubling statistic for Queen. We havent hit the ball for anything the last six or seven games, Queen said. Theyve got to up there and be aggressive at the plate. Theyre not aggressive right now. Redman feels the best is yet to come for Raleys, especially now that theyve made a move towards the top of the Division I standings. I feel pretty good about where we are, we played really well tonight. We hit at the right time, she said. Queen still believes in his team, but said they need to get it together offensively fast. When were hitting like I know were capable of hitting, its hard for any team to beat us, he said. If we dont start hitting, its going to be a short playoff season for us.

When Kim Summers graduated from St. Marys College of Maryland with a bachelors degree in human development in 1988, she didnt foresee that her teaching career would lead her down an environmental path, from one green school to another. As the recently appointed principal of St. Marys Countys new Evergreen Elementary School, Summers will help develop a deeper understanding of the environmental issues were currently facing. The school will open in August 2009 as the first green school in the county. Summers alma mater, St. Marys College, is also a school of green firsts, including Goodpaster Hall, the first major green building built by the state of Maryland. Summers, who served on the committee that designed Evergreen Elementary School, in Leonardtown, Maryland, views her new position as a tremendous honor and an incredible challenge. She credits her two sons with raising her awareness of environmental issues. I want to do my part to make sure the earth is here for them. As principal, Summers hopes to cultivate students as the next generation of leaders who will live environmentally-conscious lives. As an administrator, I have often drawn from my experiences at St. Marys College and set the bar high for my staff, Summers said. Her undergraduate experience contributed to her organizational skills, drive, and desire to achieve. My experience at the college was absolutely fantastic, she said. After receiving her degree, Summers taught for a year and then went on to earn a masters in education from the UniSee Evergreen Elementary School page B-5

Evergreen Elementary School

Continued from page B- versity of Maryland. Summers served as an instructional resource teacher at Oakville and Dynard Elementary schools and a class room teacher at Mechanicsville and Lettie Marshall Dent Elementary schools before deciding to pursue a career in administration. The path from teaching to administration was natural; it all just fell into place for Summers, who decided to pursue a career in administration because she wanted to make a difference on a larger scale. Larry Hartwick, supervisor of design and construction for St. Marys County Public Schools, describes a green building as one where the design, construction, and operation of the facility is focused on the efficient use of resources and minimal impact on the environment. According to the U.S. Green Building Council, a green school is a school building or facility that creates a healthy environment that is conducive to learning while saving energy, resources and money. The construction of Evergreen Elementary will follow guidelines set forth by Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) to use sustainable, renewable, and recycled products. A LEED-certified building helps the environment by reducing waste, conserving water and energy, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Rachel Clement, one of two sustainability fellows at St. Marys College, believes that a green school should provide opportunities for those who work in the building to learn and practice sustainable choices. Evergreen Elementary, the first new elementary school in St. Marys County since 1980, has been designed to serve as a teaching tool for conservation and environmental stewardship. During the building process, 75 percent of construction debris from the site will be recycled. The schools design for sustainability will help decrease water consumption by 90 percent and energy consumption by 25 percent. An Environmental Learning Lab located on the second floor will give students first-hand experience in renewable energy and water conservation practices. The school will also boast a green vegetated roof, which will reduce storm water runoff; cisterns, which will collect 15,000 gallons of water; and photovoltaic panels, which will provide five kilowatts of power. These environmentally friendly tools will be surveyed and maintained by students in the lab and in science classes. These are things that students have never had the possibility to experience before, Summers noted. A Green Building Kiosk, located in the foyer, will enable students to compare the buildings geothermal heating system and standard heating, ventilation and air-conditioning system. Over half of the school property will be preserved as woodlands and wetlands. According to Hartwick, We are not just building one environmentally unique school but a complete environmentally responsible school system. As principal for Evergreen Elementary School, Kim Summers will be a great ambassador for this effort. Summers is extremely excited about the high performance building and believes that it will have a tremendous impact on student and staff performance. Her current Evergreen responsibilities include attending construction meetings and observing the construction of the school offsite from her computer. It is so exciting to be involved at this point, so I can see the building from the ground up. She has also been busy researching schools similar to Evergreen and developing ideas for Green Squad programs. She plans to assign each grade level different goals to make sure that the building runs effectively and efficiently. Summers hopes that Evergreen will set a precedent for other county schools. This is the way of the future. Appointed by St. Marys County Superintendent of Schools Dr. Michael J. Martirano and the Board of Education to her new position, Summers will continue serving as principal of Dynard Elementary School in Chaptico, Maryland, until May 1, 2009. Under Summers leadership, Dynard was named a 2008 Maryland Center for Character Education School of the Year. Martirano has no doubt that Summers will help Evergreen Elementary succeed as well. Ms. Summers is an outstanding principal in the St. Marys County Public School System, he said. She has tremendous leadership skills and organizational skills that will allow her to be successful in opening this new elementary school. Soon Summers will have the opportunity to make a difference on an even larger scale, for her students, the community, and the environment.

Man arrested for punching out glass

On July 26, 2008 at approximately 11p.m., Senior Deputy First Class Deborah Milam responded to the Burchmart in Mechanicsville for a report of destruction of property. The investigation revealed Paul Jeffrey Emanuel, 29, of Upper Marlboro, entered the Burchmart. Emanuel was very upset and was yelling as he entered the establishment. Emanuel exited the Burchmart and as he was passing the gas booth he allegedly punched the glass, breaking it. Emanuel then fled in a red Honda Civic. A lookout for the vehicle was broadcast. The vehicle

and Emanuel were located a short time later at the Exxon Station in Leonardtown. Emanuel had a laceration to his hand and arm. Emanuel was arrested for destruction of property.

Noise complaint leads to arrest for disorderly conduct

On July 27, 2008 deputies responded to the area of Hiawatha Circle and White Feather Lane in Mechanicsville for a noise complaint. When deputies arrived they noticed a large crowd in the driveway of a residence on Hiawatha Circle. There appeared to be a party at the residence. Very loud music

was being played from the rear of the residence. Deputies contacted Dallas Mclean Lusk, 27, of Mechanicsville, who lived at the residence and was the host of the party. Lusk was asked to turn down the music and quiet the guests as the party and music were disturbing his neighbors peace. Lusk walked to the rear of the residence as if he was going to comply with the deputies request; however, the music continued to play loudly and the guests were still yelling. Deputies walked to the rear of the residence and contacted the individual identified as the DJ. The DJ was instructed to turn the music off which he did. As deputies walked back to their vehicle the mu-

sic was turned back on at a louder volume. Deputies again returned to the rear of the residence and found Lusk operating the DJs sound system. Lusk was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct and failing to obey a lawful order of a police officer. Deputy William Watters was the arresting deputy.
