The first annual Maryland Crab Bowl was held on Saturday at Johnny Unitas Stadium on the campus of Towson University.

Eight players from the MIAA were rewarded with the honor of playing in the game, while three others were selected but could not play due to injury. All of the eight players were playing in their last high school game but will play college football in the fall.

St. Mary's 14, Archbishop Spalding 7 (Friday)

Neil Lewnes ran 23 times for 131 yards to lead the Saints past the Cavaliers. Lewnes rushed in for what would be the deciding score from 2 yards out in the third quarter to put St. Mary's ahead 14-0, capping off an 80-yard drive that ate up over half of the quarter.

The Saints have now won three in a row and are 5-1 in the Maryland Interscholastic Athletic Association B Conference and 5-4 overall. All three non-conference losses came to A Conference opponents.

Box office record breaker “Batman” has nothing on real life hero Marc Burkom, coach of Beth Tfiloh boys varsity soccer.

Burkom, 28, of Columbia has been coaching the team since 2005 despite having to wear prosthetic feet after being diagnosed with fibular hemimelia syndrome at birth, which caused absent and malformed bones in each of his legs under his knees and defects in his right arm.

A 1998 graduate of Beth Tfiloh himself, Burkom has inspired his players to improve as both athletes and as people.
