Regarding your article about the proposed waste-to-energy plant in South Baltimore, I don't think it's a good idea to have another such plant in the area since there is already such a high concentration of pollution there ("Delay sought for trash-burning power plant in Fairfield," Jan. 9). If we are trying to reduce pollutants in the air, all a new plant would do is discourage recycling and make it even harder to build other "green" energy projects. That's a step backward, not forward.

Loyola's satisfaction over playing with a full starting lineup lasted just one game. After pounding then-No. 8 Ohio State, 9-4, on March 30 with its full complement of starters, the team took care of Fairfield, 13-7, last Saturday without freshman attackman Zach Herreweyers. Herreweyers had started in the No. 10 Greyhounds' last four contests, but was not dressed for Saturday's victory. Coach Charley Toomey wouldn't say what was ailing Herreweyers. “We're all fighting something,” he said.

Reid Acton scored from 80 yards out with one second left in the first quarter for a 5-3 Greyhounds lead. Loyola (14-1) scored twice in the opening 2:20 of the second quarter to go up 7-3.

— If third-ranked Maryland was out to prove its lack of a post-ACC tournament hangover Saturday, mission accomplished. Looking as sharp as they have all season, the host Terrapins bounced back from last weekend's loss to Virginia with a dominant performance against Fairfield, scoring the game's first eight goals and holding the Stags without so much as a shot for the first 11:21 in a 17-4 victory. "We really wanted to boost our confidence again," sophomore Joe Cummings said.

There are myriad reasons for Loyola's five-game winning streak. The defense is surrendering an average of 5.8 goals, the offense unearthed an explosive attackman in freshman Zach Herreweyers while senior attackman and 2012 Tewaaraton Award finalist Mike Sawyer sat out two games, and the transition game was bolstered by the return of senior short-stick defensive midfielder Josh Hawkins. Junior attackman Justin Ward pointed to another factor: practice. “After that Duke game [a 9-8 loss on March 8]

Sources have told Inside Lacrosse that Fairfield associate head coach Kevin Conry is set to replace newly named Georgetown head coach Kevin Warne as the Terps' defensive coordinator. Conry was an assistant at Fairfield for five seasons, and spent the past two as associate head coach under Andy Copelan. In 2012, the Stag defense finished 16th in Division I with 9.06 goals against and Fairfield advanced to the ECAC finals before falling to Loyola. At Maryland, Conry inherits a 'D' that finished ninth in DI with 7.94 goals allowed and featured ACC Rookie of the Year Goran Murray and redshirt sophomore goalie Niko Amato, who stopped 54 percent of the shots he saw last season.

Fairfield has gone through several rapid transformations. What 100 years ago was an idyllic village on Curtis Bay became a center for vegetable and oyster canning. Remnants of that rural atmosphere quickly disappeared during World War II, when Fairfield briefly became the largest shipyard on the East Coast, assembling Liberty ships.After peace came, Fairfield became home for public housing projects and chemical industries.Today, Fairfield is on the threshold of further changes. Now part of Baltimore's $100 million empowerment zone, it is seen as the site of an innovative eco-industrial park.

Reigning national champion Loyola has won seven of its first nine contests this season, but both of the team's losses have occurred against ranked opponents. The No. 15 Greyhounds (7-2 overall and 3-0 in the Eastern College Athletic Conference) get a chance to change that trend when they pay a visit to No. 8 and league rival Ohio State (6-2, 1-1) this Saturday.

Navy has opened the season with back-to-back victories for the first time since 2009 and has outscored VMI and Deroit by a combined 31-14. But coach Rick Sowell knows that Tuesday afternoon's visit with No. 18 Fairfield will be a more accurate gauge of the Midshipmen's progress thus far.

No. 15 Fairfield's 8-3 loss to No. 20 and Eastern College Athletic Conference rival Ohio State last Saturday meant that the Stags (11-3 overall and 4-2 in the league) finished in third place in the conference, one spot behind the Buckeyes (8-6, 5-1). And that means that the two teams will meet in the semifinal round of the ECAC tournament, which takes place Wednesday night in Denver. The quick turnaround doesn't leave coach Andy Copelan and the rest of Fairfield much time to make any changes in their game plan against Ohio State.

That desolate collection of vacant public housing projects, chemical plants and trucking companies is to be turned into an innovative eco-industrial park that would provide badly needed jobs for Baltimoreans.In the past month alone, three workshops have been held to ponder Fairfield's prospects in light of the empowerment zone designation that the Clinton administration bestowed on Baltimore late last year.
