Look into Kate Macfarlane's eyes and you'd swear she could see in the dark.Nothing escapes the Hereford goalkeeper's notice. Very little escapes her reach.With feline agility and a thorough knowledge of the position, Macfarlane earned everything from All-County to All-Metro to All-State soccer honors last fall as a sophomore.What really sets her apart, however, is a powerful determination to excel especially under pressure. You can see it in her eyes."I like pressure. I think I play a lot better if there's a lot more pressure on me. A lot of people would say it's crazy, because I like having to make hard saves, I like having to save the game.

Peter LaCount considered taking the day off from work after the war began in Iraq. He thought he might need to settle himself in a reality he hadn't had the time to accept. But chasing a 2-year-old around doesn't leave LaCount much opportunity for quiet reflection. And, he thought too, he'd save the time off for that unknown future date when his wife, Susan, a major in the Army Reserves, comes home from the Middle East. So LaCount finished unloading the dishwasher in his Catonsville kitchen with the help of daughter Grace, still clad in her fuzzy pink-footed sleepers, and prepared yesterday morning to leave for the office.

For much of regulation, No. 5 Dulaney just did not get close enough to shoot the ball past Hereford's All-Metro keeper Kate MacFarlane.Then in overtime, Lions wing Paige Young sent a ball into the middle where Ali Schuch waited -- plenty close enough. Schuch fired the ball low into the net giving the Lions a 1-0 victory over No. 14 Hereford.MacFarlane finished with 10 saves, although the Lions (8-0 overall, 4-0 league) didn't make her work until the second half."In the first half, there were a lot of floaty dribblers, floaty shots to the corner which is good on just about every other team, but we're not going to get any trash goals on her," said Dulaney coach Amy Green.

When Aubrey Schaeffer transferred this fall from Mercy to Perry Hall, she feared she might not fit in with her new teammates.Instead, the No. 3 Gators could not be happier with the new addition to their line especially after Schaeffer scored the only goal in last night's 1-0 victory over No. 14 Hereford."

There was no gnashing of teeth or flinging of objects in the Kansas City Royals' clubhouse after yesterday's 4-2 loss to the Orioles on Opening Day.The young Royals -- without two of their leading hitters -- said they had played respectably. They just weren't quite good enough."All in all, we gave it all we had," said new Royal Bip Roberts, who went 1-for-4 as the left fielder yesterday. "We just got beat by a little better team. Give credit to the Baltimore pitching staff. They kept us off balance."
