Kate McGregor and Jeremy Dykes knew each other growing up, because Jeremy was a friend of Kate's brother. It wasn't until they were reunited last spring that they saw each other in a new light. In fact, they made such an impression on each other that three months later, they were engaged. "We weren't together all that long," says Jeremy, "but we knew it was going to work." Both attended the former Rock Church Academy in Towson until Kate moved with her parents, former Orioles pitcher Scott McGregor and Cara McGregor, and her two brothers, to Delaware before she entered the eighth grade.

Strengths -- He throws his fastball at 95, 96 [mph]. His splitter is his put-away pitch. That's what he goes to. He's very aggressive. He comes right at you. Weaknesses -- He is a guy, you can sit on his fastball, but you've got to get past his splitter. He can be a deep-count pitcher. He doesn't always get ahead, and he can get that fastball up in the zone with no movement. Overall -- Everything for him is predicated on his command. If he throws strikes and pitches ahead, he is tough.

CLYDE, N.C. - The old man looks down at the grave, so fresh it has no marker and the squares of sod have not yet grown together. He has come to visit his only grandson. Rayburn Seeley last set foot on this spot Jan. 22, the day Army Spc. Jeremy S. Seeley was buried with military honors outside his hometown at age 28. Now the grandfather gives an impromptu salute, standing motionless against a backdrop of clouds streaming past the Blue Ridge Mountains. "We fought in different wars," said the proud veteran of World War II, "but we was still comrades in arms."

Maryland backup quarterback Jeremy Ricker has been released from his scholarship, his father, Robert, said yesterday. Ricker, a highly touted recruit from Bishop McDevitt High School in Harrisburg, Pa., had stopped going to spring practices, and Maryland coach Ralph Friedgen said Ricker planned to transfer. According to his father, Ricker wasn't getting enough repetitions at practice as the No. 4 quarterback on the depth chart and, therefore, "wasn't getting better." "There's a difference of opinion with the situation as far as how they chose to do things and how we thought things should be done," Robert Ricker said.
