Soccer event to honor victim of fatal accident

A young soccer player killed nearly 18 months ago by a drunken driver will be honored Saturday during two scholarship benefit soccer games. Teams from the Darlington and Level volunteer fire companies, the Maryland State Police and the Perryville Soccer Stars will be featured during the Janet Marie Hardy Memorial Soccer Games at Francis Silver Park, 2122 Shuresville Road in Darlington. The gates will open at 11 a.m. Donations will be accepted at the gate.

Thirteen-year-old Janet, a Perryville High School freshman, was killed in October 2003 when a drunken driver crossed the center line at U.S. 1 and Route 440 in Dublin and struck the vehicle in which she was riding.

Last year, Janet Hardy Memorial Scholarships were awarded to three graduating high school seniors. High school students in Harford and Cecil counties can apply. The deadline is May 1. Applicants will be considered this year if they have a GPA of 3.25 or better and have participated in at least one season of soccer during their high school years. Participation in Scouting also will be considered.

For more information about the game or the scholarship fund, call 443-466-4990.
