Long hailed as the nation's hotbed of lacrosse, Baltimore had fared somewhat less impressively in the Under Armour All-America Lacrosse Classic. Heading into Saturday's game at Towson University's Johnny Unitas Stadium, in fact, the South team - annually stocked with the area's senior standouts - had lost all three games in the series. Gilman's Marcus Holman wanted to change that. "People may say it's just another game," Holman said, "but whenever you set foot on the field, you want to win."

When Harry Prevas returned to the locker room from practice one day in early May to find a missed call from an unfamiliar number, Gilman teammate Marcus Holman was quick to pass along good news. Holman had taken a call just before practice from the same number, and he informed Prevas that it was about being selected to play in the Under Armour All-America Lacrosse Classic. By the next day, teammates Greg McBride, Jack Doyle and Davey Emala had also received invitations. Shortly after, the seniors got together and confirmed the unprecedented roll call: The 2009 Gilman boys lacrosse team, which went on to capture the Maryland Interscholastic Athletic Association A Conference championship last month, had a record five players named to the South team for the summer showcase.
