WESTMINSTER -- Jenny Howard and Mike Mamo both spent lonely -- and productive -- afternoons running yesterday.Howard, of Fallston, and Mamo, of Milford Mill, jumped to quick leads and cruised to victories in the 3,200-meter runs on the first day of competition in the Class 1A and 2A state track and field championships at Western Maryland College.The meet was suspended at 7:55 p.m., during the final event of the day, the 800-meter relay, because of thunder and lightning. It will resume this morning at 9:20 a.m. instead of the scheduled 10 a.m.Howard won the 3,200 for the third consecutive year.

A vote for ArizonaIn his Nov. 14 column, John Steadman supported the NFL and the University of Virginia for refusing to play in Arizona because the voters of that state had not made Martin Luther King's birthday a legal holiday. But he fancied the situation with nice-sounding words.The fact is that the football powers, in their typical heavy-handed fashion, tried to dictate to the Arizonans how they should vote, representing a decidedly illegal and immoral action. It reminds me of how Steadman and Schaefer rammed the stadium down the Baltimore voters' throats.

Individually, it is still C. Milton Wright against the rest of Harford County, but while the Mustangs girls continued their winning ways as a team, the boys' winning streak was halted at the Harford County championships at Harford Glen yesterday.Wright runners placed 1-2 in the girls and boys divisions with Amy Altmann and defending champion Jen Englehart, plus Eric Benjamin and Dave Warnick. Altmann is the only senior, and she came through in a blaze of glory.Her time of 19 minutes 16 seconds set a record for the hilly 3.1-mile course, lowering the previous standard of 19.21 by two-time titlist Jenny Howard (1989, 1990)

Fallston's girls basketball team likes to play a fast-forward brand of basketball. Sometimes it gets a little too fast.The Cougars (1-2) knocked off Southern, of Garrett County, 48-45, for the first win of the season Thursday night. But they never had a comfortable lead until the final buzzer.Early in the game, the Cougars were often uncontrolled. Visiting Southern (0-2), fresh off a four-hour bus ride, got 11 of its 27 first-half points at the foul line.Later Fallston used a trapping defense to upset the Rams' ball handlers and cause 15 second-half turnovers.

A couple of Poly grads will be on opposite sides of the field in the Gator Bowl on Dec. 30.Antonio Freeman, second-team All-Big East Conference as a kick returner, will conclude his career at Virginia Tech. Also a split end, Freeman holds school career and single-season records for touchdown catches.Greg Kyler, a freshman wide receiver for Tennessee, hasn't played this season and will be a red-shirt unless injuries force the Vols to use him in the Gator. Kyler is certain to be on the sideline with an eye on Freeman even if he isn't in uniform.

Three teams should contend for the Harford County girls basketball championship, so it should be no surprise that seven of the top 10 preseason players come from those teams. North Harford and C. Milton Wright are the early front-runners, but Bel Air could come on strong toward the end.While one or two girls not named here could turn into surprise forces in the league, these 10 should be the dominant players in Harford County.* Leigh Biggerman (5-6, senior, point guard), C. Milton Wright -- The top scorer returning for the Mustangs, Biggerman averaged 15.1 points per game.
