Each week, The Baltimore Sun publishes a Q&A with a college lacrosse player or coach to get you more acquainted with the player and his/her team. Today's guest is North Carolina senior attackman Marcus Holman , who leads the team in goals (18) and assists (14), and is an early candidate to be named a Tewaaraton Award finalist. Holman, a Baltimore native and Gilman graduate who recorded 39 goals and 35 assists last season, will lead the No. 10 Tar Heels (4-3) into Saturday's game with Atlantic Coast Conference rival and top-ranked Maryland (6-0)

Conventional wisdom suggests that No. 3 Cornell's bid for its first national championship since 1977 took a serious blow with the news on Tuesday from InsideLacrosse.com that senior attackman Rob Pannell could miss as much as six weeks after undergoing surgery to repair a broken bone in his left foot. But don't count on the Big Red players falling into that line of thinking. “We're disappointed in the loss, but I think we're also excited as a group because we can show everyone what we do have,” junior defenseman Jason Noble said.

Watch Maryland attackman Matt Hahn. The Towson State defense surely will.For the past two years, No. 7-ranked Maryland and No. 14 Towson State have engaged in brutal, close lacrosse games. And for the past two years, Hahn has proved to be the difference.Today, the Terrapins enter Minnegan Stadium with an out-of-sync attack, a banged-up defense, their top faceoff specialist sidelined and a goalkeeper still adjusting to a starter's role.L It's time for Hahn to step up once again -- and he knows it."

Johns Hopkins junior attackman Dan Denihan has trudged through seasons of unrealistic hype and expectations. And he actually invites the tremendous pressure of drawing one of the opposition's top defensemen.Yet oddly enough, the turning point of Denihan's career occurred when he gave all of this up.The sport that he had played for 13 consecutive springs pushed aside.The school where he had always dreamed of playing a distant and painful memory down the turnpike.After two up-and-down seasons with the Blue Jays, Denihan decided to withdraw from Hopkins last spring, a resolution made after an off-campus altercation which he declined to talk about specifically.

Boys' Latin senior attackman-midfielder Colin Heacock, ranked the No. 20 recruit in the nation according to Inside Lacrosse, has orally committed to Maryland. Heacock was a longtime Penn State recruit before decommitting in early November. He visited and was in discussions with multiple schools before deciding on the Terps. Heacock's addition to Maryland's Class of 2013 gives it another player ranked in the Top 50, including four Top 50 attackmen in Matt Rambo (No. 1), Tim Rotanz (No. 3)

LOWELL, Mass. -- The Bayhawks added a little scoring punch to their lineup yesterday when they made Hofstra attackman Tom Kessler their first-round pick in the Major League Lacrosse college draft. "We're excited that Tom was still available," said Bayhawks co-coach Craig Campbell, whose team will begin its second season Thursday. Kessler, who was the No. 6 choice in the draft, headed a list of five selections by the Bayhawks in the draft, which was held on the Cawley Stadium turf as part of the MLL's annual Warrior Challenge fan event.
