Border bragging rights will be at stake as a group of boys’ and girls’
high school senior basketball players representing Maryland take on
Pennsylvania Saturday evening at Steelton-Highspire High in Harrisburg,
PA. The girls’ contest is at 7:15 p.m. followed by the boys’ at 8:30
p.m.

Kandice Green, who helped St. Frances Academy to a sixth straight IAAM
A Conference championship and the No. 1 ranking by DigitalSports, will
be on the Maryland roster along with Oakland Mills’ guard Miriam
McKenzie, arguably the best player in the Baltimore region this past
season. Class 4A state runner-up Arundel will have Ayanna Randolph and
Danielle McFadden while Brittany Coughlan will represent 3A runner-up
Atholton. McDonogh School coach Tom Gizzi will guide the squad.

The Pennsylvania squad will feature University of South Carolina-bound
guard Becky Burke from Abington Heights, and Renee Brown, who led
Pittsburgh’s Mount Alvernia to the state Class A semifinal and Western
Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic League title. Burke (Class AAAA)
and Brown were first-team All-State selections in their respective
classification.

Lindsey Meyer from Central Dauphin (Class AAAA) and Ashton Bankos of
York Catholic (AA) helped their respective team to state crowns.
Pennsylvania won 89-84 victory as St. Frances’ Tanika Jeffers (now at
Garrett Community College) led Maryland with 17 points and Southside
Academy’s Sheree Ledbetter (St. John’s) receiving Most Valuable Player
honors for Maryland.

The trio of Devon Lesniak, Rashad Blackwell and Cammeron Woodyard from
Class 2A state champ Winters Mill will head up the Maryland boys’
squad. Woodyard, a 6-foot-5 guard/forward should draw some interest
from the locals as he’s given a verbal commitment to play for Penn
State University next season.

Obi Ukwuoma, who led Long Reach to the 3A state finals, will play along
with Coppin State-bound guard Justin McCoy from MIAA A and Baltimore
Catholic League power Mount St. Joseph. The MIAA will also have Evan
Williams from Glenelg Country School. Glenelg High coach Jeremy Snyder
will guide the Maryland team.

The Pennsylvania squad will feature Karon Burton and Russell Johnson
from Chester, which won the Class AAAA title and is ranked No. 3
nationally by USA Today. Class AAA champ Steelton-Highspire will have
Josh Proctor and Lance Chisholm, who was a first-team All-State AAA
selection.

Another AAA all-state first-teamer Dametric Scott from
Greencastle-Antrim will play for the Keystone State along with AA
all-state guard Jacob Iati from York Catholic. Iati has signed with
High Point.

Pennsylvania posted a 92-86 victory last year as Atholton’s Torey
Fassett (Harford Community College) was Maryland’s most valuable player
with a team-leading 17 points.

Wrestler of The Year: Josh Asper, Hereford

Josh Asper — The  senior’s  most important accomplishments can be measured by his dominance at the four state tournaments in which he competed.

There, Asper amassed a record of 16-0 that was comprised of four pins, nine decisions, two major decisions and one technical fall.

Asper’s four different state titles, which allowed him to join Aberdeen’s Matt Slutzky and Owings Mills’ Steve Kessler as Maryland’s lone quadruple winner, were won in the Class 2A-1A at 135, 145 and 160 pounds, and this year’s in Class 4A-3A state championship at 171 pounds.

Asper defeated past or future state champions seven times during the course of his career, and vaquished past of former state runners-up six times.

Asper also was a linebacker on the Bulls’ Class 3A state runner-up football team, being the top tackler on that squad.

Co-Coaches of the Year: Guy Pritzker, Owings Mills; Damon Royster, Milford Mill.

Guy Pritzker — Entering the Class 2A-1A state duals final four, there were few who expected Owings Mills to emerge as champion.

The Eagles were ranked 20th in the DigitalSports-Maryland State Wrestling Association Top 20, below 17th-ranked, defending Class 2A-1A state duals and tournament champ, Rising Sun of Cecil County, as well as then No. 4 Glenelg of Howard County and then No. 2 Southern Garrett County.

But the Eagles overcame the odds, not only in defeating Rising Sun, 34-26, in the semifinal, but in vanquishing heavily favored Glenelg, 35-34, in the championship match.

The Eagles earned Pritzker’s fourth state duals crown
since 2004, when Owings Mills completed a state record run of three straight
championship seasons coupled with their dual meet title-winning efforts of 2002
and 2003.

Coupled with his seven Class 2A-1A state tournament crowns, Pritzker, in his 26th-year, has a state-leading total of 11 combined championships.

The win improved the Eagles to
18-0, and earned Pritzker his 395th career dual meet victory against only 54
losses.

Pritzker said his Eagles won the crown in honor of one of
his former wrestlers, Steve Kellner, who died “right before the season.”

  “We’ve
dedicated the season to Steve Kellner,” Pritzker said. “And I looked up
into the heavens, and I said, ‘Steve, I know you’re up there, so would
you please help us today?”

A 1997 graduate of Owings Mills, Kellner, said Pritzker, “wrestled for me since he was 9 years old.”

“Steve
was also an assistant JV coach for me, and also helped me with my
junior league teams,” said Pritzker, who has remained close with
Kellner’s parents, Joe and Rhonda Kellner.  “I really feel like Steve
Kellner was with us in spirit tonight.”

At the Class 2A-1A state tournament, the Eagles’ 103-pound Avi Friedman dominated with three pins and a decision to end his year at 37-0 and to become the 26th wrestler to win a state title under Pritzker — the most by any active coach.

Also at the state tournament, Tony Mack (160) was a runner-up, and both Cody Rosen-Stone (140) and junior Julio Trujillo (285) placed third, the latter, after pinning last year’s Class 2A-1A state runner-up, Sean Sisler of Southern Garrett County.

Coach: Guy Pritzker, 26th season, 395-54 career

Individual State Champions: 26, most by any active coach.

County Division titles: 15

County Tournament titles: 10

Regional Tournament titles: 14

Regional Dual titles:  11

State Tournament titles: 7

State Dual titles: 4

Damon Royster — Despite losing former assistant coach, Craig Rollins, to a head-coaching position at Aberdeen High in Harford County, Royster was able to rebound with a formidable team.

Royster guided the Millers to the program’s most successful season in years, earning the school’s first Baltimore County Tournament title since 1964.

And Royster’s Millers did so by not only dethroning two-time champion and third-place finishing Hereford, but also, by vanquishing runner-up Owings Mills, which was coming off of its Class 2A-1A state dual meet championship victory.

Milford Mill’s Adeleke Ibironke won a 130-pound clash of returning fourth-place
state finishers, 14-11, over Eastern Tech’s Dustin Peddicord, earning his second
straight county title in the process.

In addition, his Millers’ teammate, Ar-Rashid White
(135), edged previously once-beaten Tommy LaVey of Overlea, 5-4, to win his
county title as White and Ibironke were among 10 Miford Mill wrestlers who
finished in the top four of their respective weight classes.

Former county champ Terrence Owens (125), Patrick Sweet
(215) and Charles Blue (171) finished second — the latter for the second
straight year — Darian Allen (103) and Peter Sweet (189) were third, and Lance
Coles (112), Brandon Ragin (152) and Ryan Smith (160)  were all fourth as
Millers (211.5 points) dethroned third-place Hereford (194), and out-distanced
runner-up Owings Mills (200).

In addition, Milford Mill had a strong, third place finish in the tough, Class 4A-3A North Region, where 10 of its wrestlers finished within the top four of their weight classes to qualify for the Class 4A-3A states. Ibironke, Smith and Blue were second at regions, Allen, Coles  and Owens were third, and White,
Ragin and the Sweet twins were
all fourth.

At states, Ibironke was third, and Allen, fourth.

(See video highlights, interviews below)

Coach Jake Reed gave his Dulaney Lions something to think about before loading them onto the bus for a nearly, hour-long drive to Rockville’s Georgetown Prep for Saturday’s game opposite three-time Virginia AAA state champion Robinson.

“Before we left for the game today, we sat down in the gym, and I said, ‘look up at that wall up there,'” said Reed, a Dulaney High alumnus. “I said, ‘our goal is to put another banner up on that wall from a state championship. That’s our goal.”

In Saturday’s 8-3 victory over Robinson, the Lions played as if they were inspired.

Notre Dame-bound midfielder Eric Keppler scored a goal and assisted on four others, Cody Lehrer scored three times, Kenny Naylor had a goal and an assist, and Brad Ruzicka, Mike Roe and Jay Mann scored once each as the Lions won their season-opener and dropped Robinson to 1-1.

Holding a 4-3 halftime lead, the Lions scored five unanswered goals in the second half of a game that avenged a 12-11 loss of a year ago, when Dulaney blew an 11-7, fourth-quarter advantage.

“Last year, we were up, 9-6, in the third quarter and we let it slip away,” said Reed, whose Lions were Class 4A-3A state semifinalists last season. “This year, we came back with a strong second half and kind of took control.”

Defeating Robison represents a favorable omen to players such as
Keppeler, who, as a freshman, experienced the Lions’ 14-13, overtime
victory over Severna Park of Anne Arundel County for the program’s last
of its six Class 4A-3A state titles.

Since then, Keppeler has experienced losing the state title game to
Severna Park as a sophomore, as well as last year’s state semifinal
setback to eventual state runner-up Wootton of Montgomery County.

“We wanted to come out and get some payback, and this is a great win. States is our ultimate goal every year,” said Keppeler.

“This is a great confidence booster right now. First game of the
season, to come out with an 8-3 win — that’s great for us,” Keppeler
said. “I think we’re coming together as a group real well.”

Dulaney scored early for leads of 1-0, and, 2-1, with the latter being the advantage the Lions took into the second quarter.

Each time, however, Robinson rebounded to tie the game at 1-1, and, 2-2, respectively, with its second goal being an unassisted score by Walton early in the second period.

The Lions scored two straight — with four minutes, and, with 3:25, respectively, left in the first half — to go up, 4-2.

But Lloyd ended the scoring to bring his squad within, 4-3, with a minute left in the first half.

“We came out a little sluggish in the first half, I thought, and we were only up by one at halftime. But we talked everything over at halftime and we came out a lot better in the second half,” said Lehrer, who scored the Lions’ sixth goal.

“This is a big year for us. It means a lot. Some of us have been on this team for a couple of years and experienced the highs and the lows,” Lehrer said. “We really want to get back to states again.”

Dulaney’s defense then clamped down on Robinson.

“The real difference between us from this year and last year is that we graduated eight kids, so we’re very young on the offensive side of the field. Teams recognize that for right now, and they’re able to take advantage of that,” said Robinson coach Justin Fitzgerald.

“Dulaney pressed out on us, and we were fairly one-dimensional on offense and that showed,” Fitzgerald said. “I don’t think we possessed the ball any more than a minute, to a minute and a half on any time down, and then, it seemed like we were back on defense.”

Robinson, nevertheless, received a brilliant effort in goal from sophomore keeper Keeney Kevan, who finished with 17 saves.

Meanwhile, the Lions’ defense came up with a nice effort of its own, thanks to 6-foot-6 Mackey Scanlan, 6-5 Patch Ronald and 6-3 Jordan Keeney — all of whom stood tall in front of first-year goalie, Alex Williamson..

Williamson finished with 10 saves.

“[Last year’s loss] was a really big motivator for us this year,” said Keeney. “This was a revenge game to kind of stick it to them this time like we should have the last time.”

Dulaney girls lacrosse, at a glance:

Coach: Kristi Korrow, second as head coach, one as interim, one as varsity assistant.

League: Baltimore County, 4A-3A

Last year: Class 4A-3A North Regional champion, Class 4A-3A state semifinalists.

Top returning players: Ana Heneberry, D-M; Blair King, A.

Top newcomers: Page Messersmith, M; Brooke Martin, M; Rosie Myers, D.

 Season outlook: “We have a much younger squad this year, and most would describe this as a rebuilding year,” said Korrow. “However, these girls do have a strong foundation on which to build upon, with strong returnees on each level of the field.”

“The team is ready to fill the gaps left by the graduating seniors from last year. They want to build a strong team dynamic, so that we do not rely on any one player,” Korrow said.

“The girls will expect nothing less than another trip to the state final four and they are willing to work for it,” said Korrow. “I’m excited to be at the helm of this team to witness, firsthand, what this team is capable of achieving.”

Dulaney is the defending Baltimore County and Class 4A-3A North Regional champion, and has won five Class 4A-3A state titles, the last one being in 2005.

But after losing last year’s semifinal to eventual Class 4A-3A state runner-up Wootton of Montgomery County, the Lions missed the state title game for the first time since being runners-up to Severna Park of Anne Arundel County.

This year’s Lions are a talented, high-scoring bunch, with Notre Dame-bound All-American midfielder, Eric Keppeler, being among the six returning starters.

The others include Jay Mann, who is bound for the Naval Academy’s Prep School, senior attackman Spencer Martin, and senior attackman Cody Lehrer, who is headed for Mount St. Mary’s.

Also back are Washington College-bound Brad Ruzicka and Michigan-bound Patch Ronald.

Martin is the Lions’ top returning scorer with 23 each in goals and assists. Keppeler scored 25 goals and assisted on 17 others, and Mann scored 24 goals and also contributed 17 assists.

Ruzicka scored 21 goals and had two assists, and Leherer, 10 goals with 13 assists.

Also helping the Lions, who went 14-5 last season, are transfers senior Mike Roe and junior Mackey Scanlon from Severn and Boys’ Latin, respectively.

“We’re replacing a starter in the goal and some on attack and defense, so there are some question marks,” said second-year coach Jake Reed, a Dulaney alumnus.

The Lions have a difficult early schedule with Saturday’s game opposite three-time Virginia state champion Robinson, as well as a game on March 27 at Dulaney against Boys’ Latin of the prestigious Maryland Interscholastic Athletic Association A Conference.

A week from this Saturday, the Lions will compete in a tournament at returning Class 3A-2A state runner-up Fallston of Harford County.
