Men's college soccer No. 3 Terps defeat No. 2 Creighton, 1-0 Casey Townsend scored in the 14th minute and No. 3 Maryland (10-0-1) held off a hard charge by No. 2 Creighton (8-1-0) in the second half for a 1-0 win Friday night in front of an announced 5,648 at Ludwig Field in College Park. The goal ended the Bluejays' season-long shutout streak. Patrick Mullins set up the goal by sending a long ball forward for Townsend, who was making a run toward the box. Goalkeeper Brian Holt attempted to reach the bouncing ball first, but coming outside of the 18-yard box he was unable to punch the ball away and the Terps ' leading scorer won the ball in the air, settled it and got his shot around defender Eric Miller and into an open net. The Bluejays, who didn't take a shot in the first 48 minutes, outshot Maryland 6-2 in the second half; the Terps did not manage a shot after the 49th minute.

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Do not confuse Creighton with Cinderella.Cinderella teams do not beat both Iowa and Oklahoma State, major conference powers that are still playing in the NCAA tournament. Cinderella does not win the Missouri Valley Conference, which produced as many NCAA teams as the mighty Atlantic Coast Conference.Creighton wants to sell itself as the humble upstart in the second round of the South Regional, and No. 5 Maryland isn't buying. The Terps saw the Bluejays climb out of a 13-point hole and beat Louisville, and coach Gary Williams and company are prepared for a team that will keep coming at them today (2: 40 p.m.)

COLLEGE PARK - The third-seeded Maryland men's soccer team advanced to the NCAA quarterfinals with a 5-4 win in penalty kicks over 14th-seeded Creighton this afternoon at Ludwig Field. Maurice Edu scored the decisive goal for Maryland in the seventh round of PKs. Maryland (16-5-2) controlled the first half and outshot the Blue Jays 9-3 in the opening 45 minutes, but the two teams ended regulation tied at 0. Goalkeeper Matt Allen kept Creighton (14-4-2) close. After two 10 minute overtimes, the teams went to penalty kicks.

ORLANDO, Fla.-- Their lack of identity made Rodney Buford and Creighton University basketball an ideal matchup."Nobody wanted me. I was a skinny kid, maybe 180, 185 pounds and all I could do was jump," said Buford, a Milwaukee native who will become Creighton's all-time scoring leader if he scores eight points today against Maryland in the NCAA South Regional."

Sorry, but if I want to watch San Diego State or Saint Mary's or especially Creighton play basketball, I'd subscribe to ESPN MiniU or whoever carries those games. On Moaning Monday, the day after national semi-holiday Selection Sunday, there is weeping and gnashing of teeth concerning overlooked mid-majors who failed to get at-large bids to the Big Dance. Just four of the 34 at-large berths went to the mids, with the rest going to the big guys from the six largest conferences. But let's take note: Maryland was one of those iffy major conference teams.

It didn't take Maryland freshman Zack MacMath long to find his niche - on and off the soccer field. MacMath, the Terps' freshman goalie, leads his third-ranked team into the NCAA quarterfinals Saturday against No. 2 Creighton. With the youngster in the nets, Maryland (20-3) has won 16 straight games en route to what the school hopes will be its second national championship in four years. "Zack is real young but with a good understanding of the game," Terps coach Sasho Cirovski said. "He can read what's happening, he has a calming presence and he is mature beyond his [17]

Cancer patient John Lukow perked up when the giant caterpillar and the flower lady entered his hospital room. "Hello! I'm Katy the Caterpillar," Mary Beth Creighton said, adjusting her bright-green costume. "Yeah, and I'm Frankenstein," Lukow responded, chuckling. Creighton laughed and gestured toward her partner, Meg Schnitzlein. "And she's Daffy," Creighton said of Schnitzlein, decked out in a white dress with big yellow polka dots, striped pantaloons, a straw hat with yellow flowers and pink shoes.

Only the bravest will attempt to swing a golf club. Unless you're desperate enough to watch the Pro Bowl, football is finally, blessedly, over. That means it's an ideal weekend to get a primer on players and teams that could put the Madness in March. Saturday's viewing options are plenty, starting with No. 11 Marquette at No. 22 Georgetown, noon on ESPN. At halftime, turn the remote to CBS, where No. 2 UCLA and West Virginia tip off at 1 p.m. in Morgantown. At 3:30, ABC has No. 9 Kansas at Missouri.

SALISBURY -- Top-ranked Salisbury's three-year winning streak and bid for its fourth straight national title were in jeopardy as No. 2 Roanoke erased a six-goal third-quarter deficit to force overtime in the Division III men's semifinal at Sea Gull Stadium. However, Jimmy Creighton's unassisted goal 2:01 into overtime allowed the Sea Gulls to escape with a 13-12 win. They will now face Cortland State on Sunday in Philadelphia for the title. "I am pretty ecstatic right now because we are going back to the big show," Creighton said.
